The jumbled jewelry drawer taunted me
My heart was all a flutter.
I needed to find my vintage brooch
Hidden among the clutter.
I vowed to organize every bracelet, necklace and ring
Before the day was over.
Hoping to easily find my favorite bling
And not have to borrow from a neighbor.
The task was daunting
I wasn’t sure I’d finish on time.
It had me yearning and wanting
To curl up with a huge glass of wine.
But instead I pushed on
That drawer was no match for me.
Now it’s gorgeous and glam
And my bling is as organized as can be.
The moral of the story
Is as old as time.
You’ll succeed in a blaze of glory
And be rewarded with a big glass of wine.
Epilogue: I found my vintage brooch and lived happily ever after.
(and the wine was delicious)!
I’ll be organizing up a storm all year long – check out all of my Organization Ideas Here.
Great story and you made me laugh!
I so need to do this, too plus all the rest of the drawers and cabinets and closets. Wow. I need a really big glass.
Ooooh…ahhhh. Just lovely! Can I borrow some jewelry?
it looks so good! my jewelry is all in piles here and there….. one day i need to organize it!
Your drawer looks amazing! I’ve used a wooden cutlery drawer divider to organize mine, works not too bad. How do you keep the cups from sliding when you open the drawer? Did you glue them down?
And I love your poem!

I totally need to tackle my jewelry, too — love all your containers to assist in the cause! Cheers!

Great job. I have been thinking my jewelry is getting out of hand. And I have a drawer in the bathroom that is basically just a junk drawer. Might have to reorganize 😉
I’ll consider organizing my bangles and baubles, alive alive oh.

Beautiful! That is a pretty drawer 🙂 Well done!
Oh, I just did the same thing. I organized all of my jewelry, gave some away, and just prettied it all up. Love finding things that I had forgotten I had.
I love your jewelry and story
Now it’s displayed in all its glory
You have the BEST jewelry collection!

Looks awesome! I’m very impressed with your rhyming skills, up next rapping?
PS Where’s the candy wrapper pics?? 🙂
What a clever post! I really liked the way you did it. I thought the organization was really well done.
I love organizing stuff! Nuts? Maybe, but I am so much happier when I know where eveything is and the clutter is gone! I’m getting ready to attack my evil vortex garage. NOW THAT’S NUTS! Enjoy your organization projects! Hugs, Leena
you should do a linky party about ‘our’ jewelry ‘mess’..which mine is….and how we reorganized it !!! seriously…would motivate everyone….mine is way worse than yours…
but i LOVE your little glass ash tray from echo valley….i have one from the poconos that my parents got on their honeymoon !! and i use it by my kitchen sink for jewelry too !!! lol !
I love the tea cups you used! They are beautiful! Great job with the organization 🙂
Your poetic bling is a magical experience 😉 Glad you were able to incorporate some wine into your project. Have a great weekend!
Hope this motivates me to organize my jewelry drawer. Yours looks great and sound like you had fun doing it. A little glass of wine always helps.
Blessings,

Kelly! First, so glad you found the brooch! Second, your new accessories drawer is amazing (and so are the baubles we spy in there)! Can’t wait to see the rest of what you’ve got coming this year. Will you come down to NC and organize our place?

muffin tins and tea cups, how brilliant! plus just looking at them makes you feel happy! I am currently using plastic ice cube trays which DO NOT make me happy! I am going for cuter! Thanks!

What a very clever way of storing and organizing your jewelry drawer. I have one that is capable of being organized but is badly in need of order.
Super job! You will be more apt to wear all your jewelry when you can actually see it all in the drawer. My jewelry needs this! 🙂
