Jewelry Storage

As you are organizing your closet, consider all of the jewelry that you have and how you want to store it. As yourself these questions before you get started:

  • Does your jewelry need to be safeguarded?
  • How do you want them to be displayed?
  • Do you want lights to show off your collection?
  • Do you need a drawer that locks?
  • Do you want, hanging, drawers, carousels, open spaces, etc.?

Most jewelry is small, delicate, and can be easily lost, tangled or damaged if not stored properly. Try these tips to get your jewelry organized and protected so that you will be able to enjoy many years of use from each piece.

Separate Jewelry

Separate your jewelry into three categories:

  1. Everyday
  2. Costume pieces
  3. Heirloom jewelry

After you separate the types of jewelry, put together the different jewelry organizers to store the types of pieces. Organizers can include:

  • Stands Containers for your dresser
  • Set up a place where you can get ready each morning
  • Drawer organizers/dividers
  • Drawer lock
  • Hanging organizers for necklaces
  • Traditional jewelry box
  • Countertop storage pieces
  • Ring stand for the countertop or dresser
  • Necklace hangers: freestanding countertop versions, wall mount or pull-out necklace holders
  • Jewelry drawer organizers: velvet drawer liners and dividers used for jewelry, eyeglasses, or watches.

Store Jewelry

Jewelry is made up of different precious and semi-precious gems, diamonds, pearls, gold, and silver, so there are recommendations of how to store them.

Diamonds

Should be stored separately in a divided container, drawer, or box because they are so hard that they will scratch other pieces.

Pearls

They are soft and scratch easily. Protect them from damage in a tightly sealed fabric/velvet bag that is kept out of direct sunlight to prevent them from turning yellow.

Precious and semi-precious gems

These are often the softer stones. Wrap each piece in an individual bag. To ensure the long-term beauty of your gems, protect the jewelry from extreme temperatures.

Gold and silver

Gold and silver require special care because they can be easily tarnished or scratched. Tarnishing can be prevented by limiting exposure to moisture and storing pieces in a bag or container that can breathe. Avoid scratches by storing each piece separately.
