i have a jewelry watch case for my watches but most of my things are still in their original boxes.
when we travel for an extended period of time i scatter my goods throughout the house but after reading this thread i may keep things out of the kitchen! altho i never put anything in the sugar bowl! lol
oh and i never leave anything in the bedrooms.

Hermes enamel bracelets. They're in clear acrylic silverware trays I got at the Container store.

Under the blue felt is a magnetic strip to help them stay upright.

im feeling kind of scattered in my organization

due to the compartments in my mine box, i find i store pieces wherever they fit (ie bracelet slotted in btwn 2 pairs of earings) as opposed to all earings, all bracelets etc

only my tiffany stuff is together bc all the boxes are the same size. any tips?

This is how I store my jewelry. This is the Isabella jewelry box from Pottery Barn. I don't have much jewelry and I just started collecting recently.

Hey Arnott,

Amazon sells these nifty 3M anti-tarnishing squares. Here is the link to the 3M squares, they are a lifesaver!

As for storage, I put them in my boxes that vintage jewelry vendors usually sell their jewelry in, I'm a big vintage jewelry collector and recently started buying some more 'contemporary' jewelry. They are black with translucent glass tops and hinged on one side, velvet-lined and flat inside so you can lay out the jewelry the way you like to see them. Easy to access too because you can stack them on top of one another!

I have the anti-tarnish squares (different brand, I think), but they don't seem to work very well. I think the box says they only last 6 months--and how long have they sat around before we buy them, I wonder?

I have a LOT of sterling jewelry, and I use the inelegant solution of an opened bucket of blackboard chalk in my safe! I find that genuine chamois cloth, the kind you use to wash cars, works nicely. I line the carboard boxes I put into the plastic jeweler's trays with chamois. It's also a nice background color to view your collection on! If you use chamois to rub mild tarnish, it usually comes off.

Right now I have all my high end pieces stored in their individual boxes/pouches, and my other pieces stored in a pretty jewelry case that my SO gave me, which was the first present he ever gave me!
However, I really need to organize.
I think that I would like to display some of my pieces in a sort of "shadow box" or maybe a pretty vintage tray...
I would like to have my favorite pieces visible, so that i can look at them everyday.
Actually, i would love some ideas!
