Descriptions of Helpful Jewelry Organizers

 

Jewelry can be difficult to store safely. Small rings and earrings can get lost easily, and necklaces and bracelets can get knotted and tangled. Metal can get scratched; gems may fall from their settings and be lost, and backs of earrings can be misplaced. What’s a jewelry connoisseur to do?

Storing jewelry effectively can be challenging, but it is definitely not impossible, and it is certainly important! Whether your pieces are simple inexpensive costume jewelry, or valuable family heirlooms, every piece should be stored safely to keep it looking its best. If you are on a tight budget, you can wrap each piece of jewelry in two or three layers of tissue paper. Ideally, however, it is best to invest in a good jewelry organizer to ensure all your pieces are stored correctly.

Different Options to Keep your Jewelry Organized

There are several different ways to keep jewelry organized – some better than others. A simple bin in which items can be tossed is a cheap option, but unless all of your items are plastic or stainless steel, those pieces could quickly become scratched and unkempt-looking. Luckily, you do not have to spend an exorbitant amount of money to store jewelry correctly.

Jewelry Cases and Boxes

 

When it comes to jewelry organizers, the best option is a case which provides you with different compartments for each type of jewelry. Necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and rings, should all be stored slightly differently to keep them looking their best.

The very best jewelry storage cases contain a multitude of tiny compartments, just big enough to store a single ring, necklace, or bracelet, so that every piece can be stored separately. Choose a case which also provides cushioned tabs for storing earrings, so earring backs can be stored together with the earrings they belong to.

Another great option is to choose a number smaller cases, each specialized for a different type of jewelry. This ensures that every piece is stored correctly according to type, and when you buy several different cases, there is plenty of room for large jewelry collections.

 

Jewelry Pouches

 

For the more expensive pieces in a jewelry collection, storing each single item in a jewelry pouch is often the best option. A single ring, necklace, bracelet, or pair of earrings stored in a pouch helps keep the item free from scratches and free from dust and grime as well. Gemstones continue to sparkle and shine and will not need to be cleaned as often, so it’s a winning idea all round.

Jewelry Trees, Earring Racks, and Necklace Rods

 

If you prefer to display your entire jewelry collection out in the open where you can see it, then jewelry trees and necklace rods are the perfect jewelry storage solution.

  • Jewelry trees sit right on your desk or vanity top, and they are perfect for storing rings as well as necklaces and bracelets. Your entire collection is on display, so choosing items to wear don’t take up more time than it has to!
  • A necklace rod is even more ideal for bracelets and necklaces. It’s particularly perfect because it will prevent those pieces becoming tangled.
  • An earring rack which can hold several different types of earrings – including hoops, wire earrings, and post earrings – is perfect to display an earring collection.

 

Wall-Mounted Organizers

 

A wall-mounted jewelry organizer is an ideal storage option for several reasons. It is great for a small bedroom, and it is even better if you like the clean uncluttered look of a vanity that is not crowded with items. The wall-mounted option is also ideal for storing jewelry on display for easy selection.

Most organizers of this type can easily be mounted on a wall or door, or even in a closet, and provide plenty of space for all types of jewelry. When it comes to bracelets and necklaces, these organizers have a definite advantage over boxes and cases, as the items are allowed to hang down and won’t get tangled.

 

Travel Storage

 

Travel jewelry organizers are perfect for vacations and trips, but they can be great for use at home, too. Choose one with several zippered compartments, ring loops, and earring pads, and it’s almost as good as a standard home jewelry organizer.

This is an ideal option for a small jewelry collection of good pieces that you do not wear every day and prefer not to store on your vanity top. In fact, these small organizers are so inexpensive that it is cost-effective to buy a travel pouch for each set of good jewelry that you own. If you have an extensive collection of moderately-priced pieces, this is an easy way to keep jewelry sets together for easy retrieval.
