Practical solutions to organizing your jewelry

If you waste time each morning digging through the jewelry box looking for earrings that match and backs to go with fronts, listen up. The June issue of Good Housekeeping had the following suggestions:


Poke the stems of stud earrings through the holes in large buttons and secure the studs in place with the backs. Group the bejeweled buttons on olive dishes or other pretty ceramic trays.


Place pairs of earrings in the hollows of plates designed to hold oysters or deviled eggs.


Prevent a tangle by hanging necklaces from vintage or reproduction drawer knobs mounted on the wall.


This issue also suggests recycling used road maps as drawer liners. Just spread them out and cut to fit.
