    Trying to find an attractive (or at least not ugly) way to store my jewelry safely and accessibly. Anybody have any suggestions for storing large quantities of jewelry besides a safe or enormous, heavy, and expensive piece of furniture? Most of what I’ve found is either too small, or makes it hard to see what is there.

    Most of what I have is not particularly valuable, but I still would like it to not be a tangled mess. Grateful for any suggestions/input!

    Necklaces.....use velcro bands to hold together , and wrap , several similar ones at a time and place them in clear plastic lock & lock containers..

    I mostly use cardboard organizer boxes with labels, so you can write on the label what's inside. The boxes have adjustable partitions, which is also useful.

    If you have painful joints like I do, cardboard boxes are easier to open than plastic ones. You just lift the lid like on a shoebox.

    Ooooo, why didn’t I think of making my own ring and pin holders? That’s a great idea.

    Thanks for the tips everyone. I suspect boxes will work very well for transport, for storing the things I don’t use often, and a modified/accessorized organizer box for the things I wear frequently.

    I might even revive a thing I used to do- hang a piece of lace on the wall to store/display earrings.

    Now why didn’t I think of making my own foam trays and necklace rolls?!? <facepalm> That, combined with storage boxes and organizers, will definitely make transport easier, And work well at home, especially for things I don’t wear all the time.

    I’ve also been looking at tool and tackle boxes, and drawer units that stack and/or can be put side by side on a shelf.
