The first place that I use to store my jewellery is on my bedroom drawers. This is my quick go to area for jewellery. To let you know what I have here, I firstly have a large white container where I store my headbands and flower brooches as I love wearing them and I have a smaller white container {I purchased the containers at IKEA} where I store beauty products I am testing out at the moment. I am currently trying some Olay and Garnier products and loving both of them!
I have a white earring stand I picked up in Target that I hang my high turn over earrings on and I find it is great to use as I can easily see what choice I want to wear. I use a silver platter to store other smaller earrings and watches on and I find with a platter it is easier to see what you have available instead of using a bowl.
I use a small silver paper towel holder to store my high turn over bracelets and I picked up this wooden tree to hang my necklaces on at a craft store. I really need to get around to painting it white to finish off the look of the area better.
To store larger, chunkier necklace and other jewellery I use a large jewellery storage unit I picked up in Target. I love being able to see easily what I have available to wear and you really do not want to know how many layers of necklaces I have piled on top of each other in this unit! I have been collecting jewellery for a long time is all I will say :)
I know it seems like I have a lot of jewellery and I really do. Some people spend extra dollars on craft, on photography, on decorating, on shoes etc. I spend it on collecting jewellery and most of the jewellery I own I picked up for a bargain price. I rarely spend over $20 for a necklace and most of my purchases were under $10. I try to keep my passion for collecting jewellery alive but also work it into our budget so it is not a strain on the family. Plus, having a blog has been wonderful to help add to my jewellery collection :)
One new addition I have to my simply beautiful jewels collection is a sweet necklace from The Rusted Chain. Beki creates hand stamped custom jewellery and I love what The Rusted Chain represents:
We are about simply inspiring jewelry.
We are about supporting local businesses.
We are about honoring God.
We are about living simply and sweet tea.
We are about fresh cut flowers.
We are about thrift stores, yard sales, and antiques.
We are about bare toes in green grass.
We are about big red barns and mason jars.
We are about savoring small moments in life.
We are about daisies, peonies and fields of sunflowers.
We are about supporting an underdog and giving to charities.
We are about friends, family and fun.
Beki has a great range of necklaces, earrings and bracelets available to order. I love The Rusted Chain collection and I have my eye on one of the camera necklaces she makes. I know a few Instagram addicts who would love to have it as well. Adorable!
I was lucky to receive a Two Tabs necklace which I LOVE!!! I already own a necklace with all of my cherubs names on it, so it was lovely to have a necklace that represents the wonderful relationship that Matt and I have together. So special.
Beki has also very generously donated a $50 voucher to a Seven Cherubs reader. You can use this voucher to purchase anything from her collection and store. To enter follow the guidelines below:

ReplyDelete(Haha I have the same cupboard! And other places I stash things too. Seeing how many pieces you have makes me feel better too... cause I have about the same by the looks of it)
ReplyDeleteOh, how I love your organisation and pretty features on your dressing table. But I'm not going to lie, how do you know where everything is? I have the exact same white jewellery holder and just love mine! Everything is in it (and yes, I've been squirreling away for as long as you perhaps in the jewellery way), and it's all jammed in there so I know where to find things. But I'm sure you're so organised and know where everything is. I just need one location. Otherwise, my head starts going all over the place!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this great post. Those personalised tabs are fabulous. xx
OMG I have jewellery envy! You have so many beautiful pieces!
ReplyDeleteI love the Two Tabs necklace, so simple, yet so powerful :)
ReplyDeleteI'm loving lots of different earrings at the moment I've made fabric covered button earrings and resin flower earrings :-)

Oh my, your jewellery collection is to die for! My favourite jewellery item would have to be bangles/bracelets, but I've never really experimented with them much. My personal favourite piece is a necklace I have which is a silver disc with each of my children's names on it and a stone to represent their birth month. I love it!

ReplyDeletemy rosebud earrings! I have a quite a few in different colours now! (and please tell me where you got that clear plastic pocket holder thingy! I'm on the lookout and havent found)
ReplyDeleteI love that you collect so much jewellery & I bet your daughters love it! & will live it even more when they're older :)
ReplyDeletemy fav jewellery item Is small & large stud earrings in lots of different styles :) I think I would like to work this more into my families budget too :)
My watch! It is beautiful and practical as well!
ReplyDeleteIt's my great-grandmother's engagement ring. Through wearing it, I am connected to her despite never having known her.
ReplyDeleteI am lacking in the jewellery department. aside from my wedding band/ engagement ring. I have a gold bracelet, I can't wear it anymore because it's too thin now from wear and tear. But it's the very first piece of jewellery my husband bought me, back when he wasn't my husband. I carry it in the coin section of my purse, have done for over a year now, don't know why but I don't have the heart to put it away never to be seen again. At least I still see it and it reminds me of when we were young and love was ever so exciting.
ReplyDeleteI am inspired to get organized. I have my jewelry in little clear drawers but am finding that anymore I stick with about half a dozen go-to pieces and don't even go through the drawers anymore. My favorite is a small diamond my husband got for me on one of his business trips.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the raffle.

I love the Eucharisteo necklace, very sweet and simple! ckcampbell@optusnet.com.au
ReplyDeleteI love the two tabs necklace....I have my 7 kids on my other chain and would love to get my partners and my name on another chain
ReplyDeleteMy favourite piece of jewellery is my engagement ring. The diamond is from my husbands grandmothers engagement ring (which she gave us with her blessing, along with her wedding band. My husband wears her husbands band - his pop pop's) so it has priceless sentimental value.
ReplyDeletethe capture this necklace. I am a media teacher.... it would be the perfect addition to my media related jewelry collection!

ReplyDeleteI'm only just starting to get a collection together as most of mine have been broken or lost by my little people . I'm loving long bright necklaces at the moment that can double as bracelets as well.

ReplyDeleteLove the way you organize your jewellery ..loving the giveaway too..a great collection.
ReplyDeleteMy wedding and engagement rings!
ReplyDeleteThe handmade earrings from the photos above are a total blast.
ReplyDeleteWhen hermes handbags online comes to fashion, most women will do something and everything that they can so as to look their greatest. Though louis vuitton wallets are extremely high-priced, most women actually discover a technique to purchase their own cheap omega watches. This has pressured them to look for discounted charges whenever they're shopping for these cheap christmas gifts. The most important thing is the fact that they've purchased authentic women rolex watches.
