When it comes to jewelry, I’m a NECKLACE LOVER! I still don’t have my ears pierced (a definite to-do in 2010!). And as much as I love bracelets, there are only a few that I rotate through. I’m a huge bangle and gold cuff lover. But necklaces… oh, man… I just LOVE. You will rarely ever see me out without one (or two) on. I’ve been searching for a fabulous hanging jewelry organizer!
Hanging Jewelry Organizer
Which brings me to the fact that I have about 50 necklaces and (I will admit) never have been too good at storing them. I’m going to regret saying this (especially after my mom reads this), but I just have a necklace drawer. They’re all tossed in there… and yes, every time I go and get one, I have to do that annoying de-tangle dance. Hanging Jewelry Organizer is what I need STAT!
So… when I picked up this month’s issue of Redbook (with the gorgeous Kelly Ripa on the cover) I was mesmerized. I mean – MESMERIZED!!!! Hanging Jewelry Organizer is everything. I just love it to pieces and really wanted to make it work for my house. How easy is this to just pop up and use for your necklaces? It’s GENIUS! Absolutely GENIUS!!
A fabulous (and chic) jewelry organization tip from Redbook editor Stacy Morrison.
Bulletin Boards! Truly… it was like that “OMG, that’s genius – why didn’t I think of doing that!?”
So, if you’re looking for a clever way to store your necklaces, this is a great idea. I passed this along to my sister-in-laws for my nieces. I figured my 8 and 9 year old nieces can paint the bulletin board with some funky paint and just have some fun with it! It’s super Hanging Jewelry Organizer!!
Not to mention, it’s a lot less expensive than buying a jewelry box.
Love this idea! I currently have little hooks pegged directly into the wall in my bathroom at home … this would have been a lot less harmful to my walls 🙂
I was just untangling necklaces this morning. My 6 yr old son watched in amazement at my futile effort and said, “Mommy, I don’t think you’re keeping those right. They aren’t supposed to be tangled.” Love this idea!
I can’t believe you don’t have your ears pierced… I don’t either! Well, actually… I DID, but I think they’ve grown over. The last time I wore earings was my wedding day 9 years ago.
I love this idea… it might even be reason enough for me to buy more necklaces. LOL.
Actually, just last year I finally realized how fun necklaces are and I’ve finally started buying them. But even with only a few, I get them tangled.
So 2010 will be the year I buy/wear more necklaces and get them organized.
I just did a whole post yesterday about cool bulletin boards! With those boards and these necklaces, it would be like a work of art.

LOVE. As you know, I adore statement necklaces as well. Also, I didn’t get my ears pierced until I was in my 20’s. 🙂
Love this idea! I keep my necklaces on my closet doorknob. This is a MUCH better idea!
Check out this mirror / jewelry armoire my husband gave me for X-mas. It has been perfect! I wish it was a little *prettier/stylish*, but it’s fine because it’s in my closet.
Here’s the link:

That is a GREAT idea!!!
I can’t believe you don’t wear earrings, they’re like my favorite go-to piece of jewelry! That being said, I adore necklaces and am going to figure out a way to incorporate something like that bulletin board in my closet when we re-do it.
Brilliant! I have bought the actual retail display units for all my jewelry- I use my towel racks as necklace holders…but this is the best idea by far! Thank you so much for sharing this!!
Love the corkboard idea but don’t have the wall space. Since I’m a jewelry rep (and I wear all my jewelry), I keep mine in black plastic trays with velvet liners that I purchased at GemsOnDisplay.com. 1″ deep trays are about $1.59 and a velvet liner is about $1.50. Thing I love about these (I stack on two shelves in my closet) is that you can store 2-3 complete looks in each tray – earrings (when you pierce yours!), necklaces, bracelets, and rings.
