Organize your jewelry in style!

Let me tell you a little story about myself: I love jewelry. When I say love, that means a lot. and when I say a lot, that means it's everywhere. As in all over every surface that's flat in the bedroom and sprawling out onto the occasional kitchen counter. And on weekends, it could very well be in the car, my purse, and the coffee table. I mean to organize it always, and I always mean well. However, it's such a daunting task. It's like trying to stuff a cat into a backpack: sounds easy, but it's soooo not. So in my latest attempt to stuff the cat into the backpack, I came across some pretty amazing items that made me think there may still be hope for me and other jewelry-holics anonymous. I present to you my findings:

Pre Spring Cleaning Day

Nothing gets me fired up to clean than a good article about the chore itself! I stumbled on this article from Real Simple magazine on  how to tackle the worst cleaning jobs. I also found this terrifying photo which would be my absolute worst nightmare! Since you all know how much I adore butterflies :)

I'm finished my work for today so from now until dinner time is Pre-Spring-Cleaning-Day! Or more like an oosouji  (big cleaning) day like they do in Japan!  The basic concept of oosouji is, as stated in the article: "... by eliminating the dirt from the old year, it creates a clean emotional slate with which to plan ahead for the next year."  You can read that article here!

Happy Cleaning :)
