Since the start of the year, I’ve been rolling through our house on a mission to purge, declutter and organize! I could show you some not-so-pretty pictures of the massive amounts of things I’ve cleared out and shipped out, but let’s just say I’ve gone through a roll of garbage bags, filled the back-end of my car (stuffed full) at least 5 times, with smaller donation drop-offs almost weekly since January.
I had big plans to put together an organizing series for you after I worked on my bedside table organization project, but I never got that far or was able to document each step along the way. So, I had a different idea. Since I am SO SO happy with how our Master Bedroom refresh turned out, I thought I would hone in on a couple other key spaces in the room, in addition to the nightstands and show you how I’ve stayed organized and kept the areas “styled” so to speak. There is something about being a blogger that calls for function AND the pretty in all that we do! I could go on and on about the staging & styling secrets behind most posts, but I’ll save that for another day. Just trust me when I say the house does not always look so put together!!
So today, I’m going to focus in on my jewelry storage & organization on my dresser and share with you what now works for me. I have a jewelry armoire in the corner of my room and a jewelry drawer right below this spot that houses the bulk of my accessories, but for the pieces that I slip on and off on a regular basis, I like to keep out & in plain sight for easy access. Especially for those rush, rush crazy days! #storyofmylife
I found these acrylic organizers and love them! [Affiliate links were used] They are the perfect little storage containers.
The 2 acrylic organizer pieces I have on my dresser are a 4 compartment swivel organizer which hold my bracelets…
[Here you see it pictured with cosmetics inside which is another awesome use for it!]
…and the other acrylic piece is actually intended for bracelet display.
Both work great though! I like the swivel function of the “stacked one” and the “T bar” one displays them nicely. I’ve also seen this 2-tier acrylic display piece that would be even more functional because it holds necklaces from the top bar and bracelets on the bottom!
I know right where to go when I need to grab for something quickly because I can SEE them! If you don’t want all your stuff out there, I totally get it. But if you’re at all like me and want to see what you have so you can actually use it and wear it, then acrylic organizers are the way to go! Like cleaning out a jam-packed closet…once you have more space between your hangers and allow your clothes to actually have breathing room, then you can see what you own and have a better shot at wearing the clothes you can’t seem to find when you’re in a hurry! When an item is visible and in plain sight, you are more likely to grab for it before leaving the room!
It’s a WIN WIN! Why not show off your pretty jewels and stay organized at the same time!?
Now, for some variation, I decided to round up a few other acrylic organizers that would be perfect for jewelry, cosmetics or even desk organization in your office!
You can find the numbered sources below the image!
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11
I’m using 1 and 5 in my bedroom and have a similar unit to 11 in my bathroom for lipstick storage, but without the drawers.
Would you ever think to use this acrylic paper towel holder [2] as a bracelet stacker? I’ve seen it before and think its GENIUS!
I couldn’t help but add this gold front Kate Spade Acrylic letter tray [8] because, well, you know me! and who doesn’t love a simple tray [7] to corral random things?!
Which would be the most practical for you? Do you like to see what you have or keep it in hiding?!
I think these options almost force you to stay neat and tidy because it is hanging out for the world to see!
I hope these picks help trigger some ideas for your own jewelry storage and organization! Happy Friday and I hope you all have a fabulous weekend! Here’s to hoping it warms up and stops raining!
