I swear my body has it's own internal time clock that couldn't be more accurate. A few days ago, I got the itch to start cleaning and reorganizing my living space. My closet was the first place I started and I eventually migrated to my accessory collection. Living in a small space sometimes forces a person to use their accessories as art and that is exactly what I did! Has your internal time clock set an alarm for Spring cleaning yet? Here are a few ideas on how to keep your gems and jewels pretty and organized!
| My friend Tania of Picasso's Closet made this brooch and earring holder for me out of an empty picture frame with netting stapled to the back. Not only does it keep my earrings from being misplaced but it also takes up no counter space when hung on a wall. |
| I scooped up this bracelet/necklace holder when a local business closed down. You can find similar options here. |
| Because I'm always misplacing my earring backs, I pick up a box of my favorite kind at the local craft store. |
| I found this mirrored gold toned tray at Salvation Army and it's become a huge time saver when running out the door. All of my (sun) specs are neatly displayed. |
| A model hand used for drawing holds my rings and hoop earrings. The glass dish is another vintage find and contains stud earrings and the like. |
| Vintage candy dishes hold bits of spare change and nail polishes, but I also use them to display my jewelry. |
| A selection of my favorite perfumes are corralled in this vintage glass tray. I'd love to add this fragrance to my collection. |
| A sweet cupcake box holds miniature sample scents that would otherwise be lost or cracked while inside my purse. |
Will you be doing any Spring cleaning
along with Spring shopping?
Yours,
