Whenever you hear cardboard and jewelry box in the same phrase it somehow seems wrong. I know. It seems only appropriate that even kids jewelry should get a decent home, but I have to say that the newest cardboard jewelry boxes that are crafted for kids are nothing like what you might imagine. In fact they’re really well made, laminated and even easy to wipe off because of the pearly smooth finishes they are given.

Designs, Cost and Where To Shop

Many cardboard jewelry box designs are crafted in adorable designs that include ballet and princess or castle motifs with their favorite cartoon characters or Disney heroes. Some have shelves and drawers and little secret compartments and all the things kids love. What’s even better is that the prices are really affordable, only $25 to $40 while wooden ones can be $80 or over $100. When you go with a cardboard style you can even choose very cool children’s musical jewellery boxes that cost under $15 or $20, for small versions, and a little more for larger ones. If you live in the UK, or order online from the UK shop called The Music Box Shop, you can get some outstanding creations for boys and girls for as little as £6! And no, they really don’t look like junk, but are super well made and have a little crank to play music and are nicely decorated.

Wooden Music Boxes For Kids in the USA and the UK

Wooden musical jewellery boxes in the UK are priced at around £50 to over £100, and about the same in the US. The ones with a ballerina in the classic style can be found on sale in the US for about $80 at places like Music Box Attic and in the UK at places like The Music Box Shop. The last shop mentioned in the UK also has some wooden boxes that are really small but cute as can be, and sell for about £20 to £60. However the ones with dancing ballerinas are more, closer to £200 for the best designs.

If you want efficient storage flexibility that would fulfill your spatial requirements in your room – then try purchasing a hanging jewelry organizer.  Widely considered as an essential organizer for those jewelry enthusiasts who hold a wide range of jewelry collections, this type of organizer is so-called because they are hung or mounted on a wall or a cabinet or bedroom door – to maximize space and for easy display.

Pocket hanging organizers are designed like pockets or pouches from non-woven fabric to keep your jewelry items safe and complete.  They are usually made of cloth or lined with a soft fabric to prevent jewelry items from being scratched or broken.  Because it’s made up entirely of cloth, it can be folded for easy transfer or for convenient travel.  They are also referred to as folded hanging organizers and they are also good organizers for other items as well such as watches or keys.  They are ideal for small living spaces.  Some are designed with clear vinyl front to easily locate your item kept.  It ranges from 30 – 80 pockets, depending on your collection capacity requirements.

Another type of hanging organizer is the keyhole design earring organizer.  This type is limited for earrings only.  It can hold more or less 30 earrings.  This type of organizer has rooms for various types of earrings, whether pierced or dangling ones.  It will help you organize your earrings and you are guaranteed that you will never lose them again.  Its design would make it easy for you to slip and slide down your earrings in their respective keyholes.  You can hang it virtually anywhere – at your door, wall, closet or mirror.  It can also be useful for travel too.

Another type of hanging organizer is wall mount jewelry organizer.  This is the most popular among hanging organizers because it can basically accommodate all types of jewelry – from rings to earrings and from bracelets to necklaces.  It has specially designed hooks, slots and keyholes for all jewelry items, and there are variations of this type where they come with built-in miniature jewelry armoires and boxes.  If you want a multi-purpose jewelry organizer wall mount, then this is the excellent choice to buy.  Some mounted jewelry organizers can be easily hung while others come with mounting hardware and materials for a do-it-yourself fashion.  It can accommodate an astonishing 40 – 100 range of jewelry items and some manufacturers and workshops are even open for further customizations.

Whatever type of hanging jewelry organizer you feel like buying in the future, always consider your own jewelry collection to mix and match your organizing needs in terms of type, capacity and fashion requirements.  One thing is for sure – hanging organizers are meant to save space and function as a decoration, so this is definitely a win-win situation for you.
