Looking for more space to accommodate your recent vintage accessories? Look no further. These space-managing tips will transform your décor in a jiffy:
A vintage china cabinet
It might seem like a big commitment, but do it. The trick to organizing is keeping your clutter contained, and there’s no sexier way to showcase bags or shoes, which both can be an organizational nightmare, than by placing them in a china cabinet. This not only allows you to showcase your gorgeous items, but also keeps your larger items in one place and adds a chic decor touch to your bedroom or any other room.
Choose the cabinet style according to the theme of your home.
Mason jars
Line up a row of mason jars on a countertop or a shelf and fill them with various loose ends. One for hair ties, one for thick bracelets that won’t tangle, one for watches, etc. This also works in your bathroom vanity for beauty products you don’t reach for every day.
Shoe bags but not for shoes
Have tons of products but a tiny bathroom? Try hanging a shoe bag on the back of your bathroom door to hold things like shower caps, cotton balls, headbands, eye makeup remover, lotion, face creams, and other items you reach for after a shower or in the morning/evening. This also works inside a linen closet for cleaning supplies.
Ice cube trays or tackle boxes
While we’ll admit these aren’t the most attractive solutions, ice cube trays or plastic tackle boxes can work wonders when placed inside a drawer to hold rings, earrings, pins, loose beads, spare buttons and other small accessories you’d like to keep track of.
A painted frame and wire
Looking for a smart way to corral all your sunglasses? Try a frame and some wire. This project takes barely any time to complete, and looks super-chic hanging in a foyer or bedroom.
A towel rod and shower curtain hooks
This is a killer way to store and see all your necklaces, scarves, or other accessories that hang. Affix a towel rod to the back of a door, above a mirror, or anywhere else, and drape accessories over shower curtain hooks, which hang from the rod.
Empty beer bottles
It might sound odd, but using empty glass beer or soda bottles can be a really useful and unique way to organize your bracelets. Add the thickest one first, and pile on from there. This looks especially striking when several are lined up in a row on a shelf.
Statues, busts, and dishes
This is another organization trick that doubles as décor. Pick up a cool small bust or statue and hang your necklaces around the neck or your rings on the fingers. Likewise, grab pretty small dishes or bowls to hold items.
