Organizing Pierced Earrings
February 21st, 2008
Susie Orman, the financial guru has only one pair of earring. She said that is all she needs. (Look at her photos; sure enough she is always wearing the same ones). Now that is a minimalist, I personally need more than one pair.
I have pierced ears and have used several options for keeping them stored for years. I have tried a jewelry box, I tried the ‘tower’ that sits on a dresser, and I tried putting them on a bulletin board like thing. But when I was in a hurry to find a pair, well, frankly it was not always possible. And earrings like to tangle with each other.
Now I have found another way of storing them that I like the best for right now.
•I put each pair of earrings on a button.
•Larger earrings go on a button that is about one inch in diameter.
•Even dangly ones fit on buttons.
•I put them in a little heart box and it is easy to ‘dig’ through to find the pair I want to wear.
Do you have a favorite way of keeping your earrings tangle free? Leave a comment and I will share with everyone.
