Why store your jewelry?
Beyond the fantasy of a perfectly organized dressing room, from earrings to high heels, storing your jewelry primarily helps avoid coarse knots. Tuesday, 7:12 AM, everything seems to be going smoothly. You have finally found the ideal outfit to start this busy day. You want to perfect the outfit of the day with that famous smoky quartz drop silver necklace. And this is where things get tricky. This pendant, here it is again, tangled with the coral bracelet and round silver bracelet. If your jewelry storage had been appropriate, these troubles would not have happened!
After a few tedious minutes of trying to untangle, you give up and leave for work annoyed, without a necklace, your hands still numb. Does this morning mishap seem familiar? Then rest assured: this carelessness is common. It causes a regrettable loss of time, but it is also, above all, detrimental to the good condition of your jewelry. Indeed, designer jewelry, whether precious or costume, deserves to be treated with care. While these delicate little objects naturally oxidize, certain precautions help preserve their shine.
Jewelry storage: how to proceed?
First of all, it is not necessary to be methodical to start organizing jewelry except to sort them by categories. We recommend sorting them according to the materials they are made of. For example, your rings might be stored in the same box and end up touching each other. Storing gold with gold and silver with silver prevents chemical reactions between the materials over a long period. Then, it is appropriate to choose and adopt the method(s) that suit you best. Jewelry storage: here is a brief recap of the most common techniques to help you get started.
- Firstly, the jewelry box, essential and mysterious. There are endless varieties with more or fewer compartments. Only certain necklaces and bracelets won’t find their proper place there. It is better to choose a compartmentalized box to separate different pieces of jewelry and prevent them from tangling.
- Secondly, the jewelry dish, practical and fun . Shaped like a pineapple or a cloud, it is mainly suitable for storing rings, in an original jewelry organizer.
- Thirdly, the jewelry tree, decorative and tall . Necklaces, bracelets, rings, and some earrings can easily be hung there.
- Fourthly, the jewelry drawer, specific and spacious . When its interior is arranged and divided, you can store all types of jewelry in it. A must-have if you prefer not to have anything lying around.
The little extra
If you only have one storage space: consider protecting each piece of jewelry individually, preferably in thin pouches. This way, they will be protected from air and knots. Plus, it’s also easy to take on trips afterwards! Indeed, individualizing them helps keep their shine and prevents any possibility of knots that could damage them.
