The Best Jewelry Storage Ideas For The Busy Person

By

Some people grow up believing that no outfit is complete if does not have at least one accessory. Others feel that a set that uses the neckline, one wrist and headgear in coordinating colors or patterns are worth looking for. Over time, a person can have an ample selection of wardrobe accessories that may be difficult to keep up with. This is why it helps to try out some jewelry storage ideas that can help sort all accessories and accent pieces.

This may seem like an arduous task but having a system will serve several purposes. For one, it will prevent pieces from getting lost. Sometimes people will buy duplicates of one item over time because they could not find it the last time they took a peek inside their closet or dresser. So this can save money and time spent inside stores or shopping online.

Getting organized is different for many, as items, space used and their priority are key factors to keep in mind. One inexpensive method is unused shoe boxes that are labeled accordingly. Bracelets or necklaces may be in one box and earrings or neck wear in another. Pieces that are delicate or would benefit from extra cushioning should be kept in a clear jewelry bag. Sometimes a small sandwich bag with a zipper seal can do the same job.

Another sorting idea is to separate colors, materials or by other visual features. The bags can also be used for separation or even to transport safely. It also helps a great deal to keep broken pieces in a separate bag with a reminder to have it repaired at some point. Or it may be easier to replace the jewelry.

Bags can also be used to keep accessories together and placed near the intended wardrobe to be worn in the near future. Some people enjoy experimenting while they get dressed but there are some who feel they do not have time to waste before starting their day. However, it can be a time saver when running late.

For the person with a small selection or pieces that are small in size, jewelry boxes are ideal. Many are decorative and the compartment space makes it easy to find earrings and others that are easy to lose. Some jewelry boxes come with a locking feature and there are even models ideal for traveling.

Accessory hangers are good for sorting neck wear, bracelets and more. For the person who wants to access their items immediately, this is a good solution that does not take a lot of horizontal space. These hang on a closet rod or on a wall hook. The hangers are found at accessory, craft and home retail stores.

The final idea may be considered strange but it is not only inexpensive but it can work for the person with limited space. Styrofoam or plastic wig heads can sit on a surface or be mounted against a wall using medium weight Velcro or double stick tape. Using pins or tacks, earrings, bracelets and neck wear may rest on the head. It is easy to access and the head can act as a model to see how different items look. People who have a little more space in their home may use a half body mannequin. However, the idea here is to know where items are located and their condition before wearing in public.
