Zero Budget DIY Jewelry Organizer

Zero Budget DIY Jewelry Organizer

Quick Free Jewelry Organization How TO

If you are like me you have been able to find inexpensive organizers for your earrings, necklaces, rings and bracelets but pins and brooches are another story.

After chasing our pins and brooches in and out of various drawers, boxes, etc… or searching for 20 minutes every time I wanted wear one I created this jewelry organizer.

We created it several years ago when my frustration was high and money was so tight at our house it squeaked.

I wandered around the house looking for supplies and stumbled across some felt and a dowel rod.  I thought “Why not?” and tried it.

Confession:  It wasn’t until a few weeks later that I actually secured it with stitches instead of safety pins and strung it up properly.

That was three years ago and I haven’t had to search for a brooch or lapel since.
