I am collector of many things... and I love collecting different jewelry pieces. I really believe that it completes and can even update any outfit. I have some fine jewelry that have been gifted or past down to me, but my collection consists of mostly costume jewelry.
I love to display my jewelry, so that I can see what I have. I don't like digging through a jewelry box to get to the necklace I want to wear. And to avoid tangling necklaces, I place them on necklace bust displays, very similar to how you would see them displayed in a boutique. I have the space in my closet to display my accessories on shelves, but if you have shelves in your bedroom, or if you have a dresser, you can display your jewelry there too.
I like to organize my necklaces by type. I have my statement necklaces on one shelf, on white velvet necklace busts. On the second shelf, I have necklaces I have purchased over the years, from LE Grande Jewelry. They're hand knotted with pearls, beads, stones. I LOVE them! They're so dainty! They dress up any casual outfit.
I have these displayed on glass necklace busts (long), as well as white velvet busts (short).
I love to mix textures and colors to give it a boutique decor to my display.
I have a special storage place for jewelry pieces that carry special sentimental value, gifted from very special people in my life. I store them in an ornate, see-through box, so that I can see them.
I also have another glass box (not shown) for my rings, and one for my earrings.
I also like to lay some of my bracelets on the shelf. All others hang on a jewelry stand.
I enjoy seeing everything in its place when I walk in my dressing room. I can notice when something is missing, especially when my daughters "borrow" my jewelry. They are notorious for not returning them back.
I have other collections displayed on my shelves that are not mentioned in this post (hats, perfumes, watches, sunglasses), but I will share that soon.
Do you have a jewelry collection? I hope this has inspired you to organize your jewelry and display it.
