I’m always looking for ways to cut down on clutter and asve time whether it’s finding free insurance quotes or deciding how to organize my jewelry wardrobe. I wear a lot of dangly chandelier earrings, and I have quite a few pairs of them. A normal jewelry box doesn’t work because there aren’t enough compartments. Even an earring tree is useless because there aren’t enough branches. I would need something the size of a Sequoia to house all my jewelry and all the jewelry that I want to buy. Currently I use ice cube trays that I keep in a dresser drawer to keep things sorted out. The problem with this is that they aren’t pretty. I recently saw in a decorating magazine where they put small mismatched china bowls in a drawer and hung earrings around the perimeter. I worry that it would be a loss of space, but it sure is pretty. I guess I’ll give it a try the next time I’m at the thrift store and see cute china cups.
