As our trusted readers may remember, I assisted Stacy in organizing her closet a couple of months ago. When we first visited her closet there were clothes and shoes strung about and not in their proper place. We spent a few hours getting them in order. You can reread the first post here.
Now that Stacy was living with a clean and organized closet the next project to tackle was where to put all her accessories. A few years ago, I may have turned Stacy into an accessory fiend (not sorry!). Well, she has taken that love of accessories and grown her collection. They were being housed in a cramped space in her bathroom. You couldn't see all the necklaces, a lot were tangled together, and the growing collection was leading to annoyances when she was trying to get ready in the morning. I'm a huge fan of being able to see all the necklaces/bracelets/earrings I own, that way I can choose what goes best with my outfits of the day. Also, if you can't see all your accessories you'll forget what you own!
Stacy and I have had numerous conversations on how to organize what was becoming a huge mess. She enlisted the help of her fantabulous carpenter/friend Johnny. Johnny built her a beautiful cork board for her closet so that all of her necklaces/earrings can be showcased. Once the piece was built and mounted, we were ready to organize!
We spent an afternoon laying out all of Stacy's necklaces. I took charge of where to place them. It's color coordinated, with dainty necklaces at the top, longer necklaces at the bottom.
Johnny also added an overhang that had a window screen covering for all of her earrings.
For most of us, we don't have our own Johnny to build such an amazing piece. But buying any cork board would work! Place your jewelry in whatever way works best for you. Even though it took a little while to finalize this project, getting rid of the clutter made Stacy, and I'm sure her husband, so very happy!!
Happy Organizing!
Love,
