I need "something" to keep my earrings, bracelets, rings and necklaces. I have a very tiny box and it is so crowded already.... I would love for something were I could clearly see what I have, instead of pulling out everything in order to be able to see what is on the bottom or to look for something specific. The necklaces get tangles, the small earings get lost, etc.You get the idea.
Is there anything that would fit my needs? I am sure if I had such a way to keep my jewelry I would wear them much more frequently. As it is, I only wear the same necklace everyday, the same ring everyday and the same earring everyday.... And I am such a sucker for cute custom jewelry!! If you can provide links it would be even better. |

| I have a big leather covered jewelry box from pottery barn. It has various drawers and trays. Also have a 2 arm stand for necklaces that sits on shelf. |

Unceremoniously stuffed in various boxes in my sock drawer - out of sight, out of mind, and I never wear them.
I would like a cute rabbit-eared/swan-necked/branched tree thingie to hang my everyday knick-knacks on. |

| I have a small decorative bowl next to my bed for everyday earrings, rings and watch. The rest goes in my jewelry box. |

| i have a decorative hook on the wall that I hang my necklaces on. Below the hook (on the dresser) I have a set of 5 decorative boxes (from Pottery Barn, over 20 years ago) and keep my other jewelry in them. Hair accessories, too. |

| for something like rings get a legnth of soild core wire and make an outline of your childs hand spread open, then drill holes in a block of stained and polyed wood and glus the ends of the wire in the holes. You then have a sentimental ring stand. |

| I made a frame holder for my earrings using a cheap thrift store frame. Removed the glass/backing, spray-painted it oil-rubbed bronze, and added a piece of mesh wire (like a window screen). This really only works for dangly earrings but it helps to display all of my pretty ones for selecting from every day. You could do something similar but put a piece of fabric-covered foam in the frame instead of wire mesh, then put little pushpins in it to hang your necklaces. |

I use the jewelry box my grandfather made for my grandmother. The one he made for me (a lot smaller) is now my daughter's. I keep both my real and costume jewelry in it, with some larger costume pieces in a tray in my dresser drawer. Jewelry boxes are expensive, but they do a good job of keeping things sorted yet easily accessible.
If you have space in a drawer, go to the Container Store and get a bunch of velvet lined trays. |

I'm always changing how I store my jewelry. Hanging pocket jewelry holders, black felt stands for necklaces and bracelets. Earrings here:

| Container Store has a ton of different options... just go browse. I got a few stacking wooden trays that when you stack them together look like a jewelry book (the top trays have lids). Then you can customize what sections you need most--necklace/earring/etc. |

I got a jewelry armoire from Target. Like this, but I didn't attach the legs, so it sits on my dresser:

It isn't 'pretty' per say, but I had a section of wall in my closet that was free. So I put in a bunch of command hooks for necklaces and bracelets.
For my dangle earrings, I did something like this: 
And posts are on a smaller, table earring holder like you'd find at Claire's. |

You could get a wall hanging one that would let you see pretty much everything when you open it:
