Organize your jewelry in style

We have a confession to make. A few of us here at Avindy are a little obsessed with Pinterest. I mean, can you blame us? There are endless recipes, craft ideas, items for the home, hair dos, shoes, jewelry...this could go on forever! If you don't know what Pinterest is, let us be the first to invite you to a new obsession. The site basically lets you organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web—sort of like bookmarking, but way more fun! It's like social networking for grown ups. You can read all about it here: ABOUT PINTEREST

And in the case that you are more visual like us, we found this nice video that explains what it is and how to use it.

Now, let's finally get into the reason that we are going on and on about Pinterest. We found these cute, but different ways to organize your jewelry while engaging in our daily browsing. The first way is a little more crafty and a little less traditional. It uses an old rake, some paint and some decorative items. We would love to give credit for this simple yet functional idea, but we aren't sure where it came from because it was not linked to any blog post or website.

Here is another beautiful and crafty way to organize your collection. It incorporates an antique mirror frame, some lace and your favorite shade of paint. 3 items that are pretty easy to find at a yard sale, your local craft store and hardware store. If you aren't so much the crafty type, you can buy jewelry organizers like this on Etsy at The Vintage Treehouse store.

This particular one sold already, but it looks like they make several versions of this frame that comes in all different shapes, colors and sizes. This bright pink one is currently for sale.

This next idea comes from the I Heart Organizing blogspot. It uses radiator grates (from Home Depot) as a surprisingly pretty way to organize jewelry. We could totally see this being used in one of these old school industrial lofts here in Atlanta.

We really love this idea! It uses cutlery trays as a way to hang and organize jewelry. You can buy these trays at Ikea for like $2.00. The hooks you can pick up while you are at Home Depot for the last project we listed. Again, we don't know where this idea came from because no source was cited, but we feel compelled to spread the love.

And last but not least, this next little crafty organizer looks like it may be made from a spice rack. What an amzingly simple idea! Again, if would rather take the easy, less crafty route, you can buy it on Etsy at the Spirit Ranch Creations store. We would never judge you! They also have an array of other organizational items for jewelry amongst other things.

We hope you enjoy these creations as much as we do. If you happen to make or buy one and put it to use, post your pics on our Facebook wall. We would love to see your collection and creativity!
