In A Tangle







As a lover of all things sparkly and pretty, I have a fair collection of necklaces and earrings hanging around the house. They are stored in little dishes in my bathroom and bedroom, can be found hanging from the door handle of whatever room I took it off in or just thrown neglectfully into a top draw somewhere. 

What I need is a solution for my tangle of jewels that is both pretty and practical. Which got me searching for ideas and here are some of them. Let me know which ones you love or what you have done yourself at home.

My necklaces are currently hanging on my bedside lamps. I need to get organised!

Ooo what a fabulous idea the china bowls are. You could get antique ones, so pretty!

I have done the vintage picture frame with chicken wire stapled on to the back which worked beautifully for necklaces, earrings and bracelets (using s hooks)... until I had purchased too many. I would love to have a series of frames with jewellery arranged by colour but my husband isn't keen on having them all over the bedroom wall! So now I have rows of hooks behind the door which also works very well, if not quite as pretty!

I like this post. Never thought about dishes before. I hang mine in the back of my armoire. Can't leave them visible or may cat would have a hayday. She's got a string fetish... :)

such a pretty idea to display them instead of hiding them away! my hundreds of beads and bangles are all in a big hanging clump on my dresser... I like the idea of hanging them as wall pieces!
