I saw a couple of ideas for storing jewelry on Pinterest a week or so ago.
I have had my rings in the top opening of my jewelry chest/embroidery chest...
Every time I needed to get in there, I had to lift whatever was on top, to gain access... Not convenient. The crypt was a heavy move.
I thought that this book/ ring holder was very clever. You can definitely get a lot of rings in one book. I have books everywhere and some I never look at. A good way to use them.
The other idea was for bracelets. I have a couple more bottles like this somewhere... If I ever find them, I will have more than enough storage for my bracelets.
It is easy to get just one bracelet on and off. Unlike the bracelet bar that I bought at Walmart a couple of years ago. That one, I had to fight with to get the bracelets on and off.
This one, I simply grab the bracelet I want and pull it up over the top.
I just thought that someone might like one of the two ideas.
Actually, I am going to keep using the bottle idea. That one is a winner.
The book, I am not so sure. The rings keep falling out of the cracks.
I think it would be much easier if all of the rings had the same sized bands.
I kept thinking and finally solved the problem. I went and got the basket shop. It is very light and easy to move. Tessie likes that one. She is a very good basket maker and enjoys spending time there.
Now maybe she will get some baskets made whilst I am working on the Forest Fantasy Cottage... She can yell at me and tell me what I am doing wrong from across the room.
I am going to put the rings back in the top of the chest now. All I have to do is move Tessie and baskets when I want to get to the rings. That should be easy enough. And I don't have to run after rolling rings that way.
Back to work.
See you tomorrow.

I love the bottle idea. I have a lot of bracelets so I think I will be trying this soon. Thanks for sharing, Casey!
Casey... you have even more rings than I do!
;-)
Pernille.
Pernille, that's because I like making rings. More than half of what is there are ones that I made. Lots of buttons and beads!
A lovely collection. Have you ever though of an egg carton for your rings? The ones that hold 12 eggs and that have a cover? You could put more than one ring in each little cup. Just a thought. I love the bottle idea for the bracelets.
I love pinterest! Been working on mine for a while now cant tell you how many tutorials for minis I have found..... I must look for you there Casey!
