TIP OF THE DAY: Create a quick drop off for your jewelry



A month ago, I posted an article on upcycling which included new and creative ways on how to organize your jewelry at home. However, I'm sure most of you have found that with time it gets messy again. This mainly happens because things get misplaced and are not put back where they belong. To prevent this from happening, it's important to put a clear routine in place.

Let's be honest though, I know myself that it's so much easier to take off your jewelry at night and leave it laying around wherever you happen to be standing at that moment in time. However, our aim today is to stop you from doing this by following 3 simple rules which you can see below.

  1. Create and establish a quick drop off for your jewelry using a decorative object like a small tray, ashtray or pretty bowls. Place the chosen item in a strategic place such as your bedside table, on top of your chest of drawers or in the bathroom.
  2. Make it a routine that you take off your jewelry and leave it on the created drop off station.
  3. On a daily or weekly basis empty out the drop-off station by putting your jewelry back where it belongs.

This cute change holder from El Corte Inglés is my final option

What do we achieve by doing this? The main idea is that your jewelry is localized, you know where every thing is at each moment and also for you not to think you've lost something when really it's just not in it's place.
