It seems most fitting to follow-up Nathalie’s post yesterday about repurposing a well-worn cashmere sweater with my DIY necklace organizer.
I like things to be organized and orderly although admittedly I have ways to go because my boys don’t seem to be 100% in agreement with me as to what neat and tidy means.
I have thrown my hands up over the playroom and have adopted an attitude of “it’s their space so as long as I can run the vacuum over the carpet, it’s clean enough”. Nonetheless, I am always trying to keep clutter in the kitchen, closets and washrooms to a minimum.
I have been known to scour Pintrest in the past for ideas but I now limit the time I spend cruising this site because I have concluded that I feel woefully inadequate after about 5 minutes. (Alphabetized spice racks? !)
I do enjoy receiving Martha Stewart’s Organization Tip of Day every morning to my inbox and a few months ago this DIY jewelry hanger was a feature. (image from MarthaStewart.com)
It’s simple to put together and now my necklaces are no longer in a heap atop my dresser but instead hanging clearly visible in my closet.
Here is my interpretation. What do you think?
What’s your favourite organizing tip? I find under the washroom sinks to be particularly challenging.

I found this last year on pinterest (which also makes me feel depressed). Super easy for scarf organization and now my scarves are not all shoved in a drawer!
Thank YOU! My next project will be organizing my scarves which are currently in a heap at the bottom of my closet in an oversized plastic bin.
You are welcome! =) I loved this idea – and I love the necklace organizer!
My motto for the year – ‘A Place for Everything and Everything in its Place’
Happy Organizing!
Did you buy the rod & hooks from Ikea? Sadly, my jewelry is in a real heap. It totally needs to be organized.
Home Depot!! Super cheap too. I think the entire thing was $10. FYI: I have seen people use smaller hooks to hang earrings.
This is a really good idea – my costume jewelry is everywhere and I can never find what I’m looking for!
I put a shower curtain tension rod under my kitchen sink to hang all of my spray bottles on. It frees up tons of space. Love your idea! I will try it soon but will need lots of free time to untangle all of my necklaces.
LOVE this idea!
i love this idea. i totally have to copy that! I’ve got tons of necklaces hanging on one hanger and its a total bunched up mess. thanks for sharing 🙂
I think I am going to do this with my belts, Thank you for the great tip!
Reblogged this on freweynidesalegnn.
Area rugs!! They’re so valuable in transforming the appearance of an area.
of course like your website however you need to test the spelling on several of your posts.
Several of them are rife with spelling problems and I in finding it very bothersome to inform the truth however I’ll surely come back again.
