I’m pretty neat at home, but my jewelry drawer can get unruly. I battled it yesterday with $5.50 at Wal-mart, and here’s how I did it:
Here’s the “before”… I had an acrylic container I had inherited along the way somehow, and everything was crammed into it. Yes, my jewelry shares the same drawer as my toothbrush. When I brush my teeth in the morning, I pick out my jewelry, and I take it off as I brush my teeth at night. It makes sense to me.

I searched all over Wal-Mart for something cubby-like for my needs, but couldn’t find anything. As I had thrown in the towel and headed toward the exit, I spied these:

1 ice cube tray for $1.50
2 plastic butter dishes for $2 each
The 16 small cubbies of the ice cube tray was EXACTLY what I needed. I am LOVING IT! AND the ice cube trays stack nicely if I need additional cubbies!


JUST when I thought I was a GENIUS for thinking of this, I Googled “ice cube tray jewelry” to find the numerous geniuses who preceded me:
