Fed up with tangled necklaces and missing earring pairs? Try one of these 10 creative DIY jewelry organizers to simplify storage and keep your accessories easy to find.
In my previous post I shared the results of organizing our master bedroom. While I was describing the changes, I mentioned I was still hunting for a better way to store jewelry. I have a few pegs for necklaces and a jewelry tree for smaller pieces, but I wanted something more practical and attractive.
I searched the web for fresh ideas and found plenty of clever, approachable projects. Below are 10 DIY jewelry organizers that combine style and function—each entry includes the source link and a photo for inspiration.

2. Jewelry Blocks
Solid wooden blocks fitted with thin rods or dowels create a compact, modern way to store necklaces and bracelets. The vertical design keeps chains separated and visible so you can grab what you need without untangling.

3. Peg Board & Accessories Station
A pegboard becomes a versatile accessory station when paired with hooks, trays and small shelves. It’s an excellent option for organizing necklaces, earrings, sunglasses and even small purses in a single, customizable display.

4. Repurposed Drawer Jewelry Organizer
An old drawer can be refreshed to hold your jewelry: add cup hooks along the back and sides for hanging necklaces and bracelets, and use small compartments or trays inside the drawer for rings and studs.

5. Secret Compartment Jewelry Case
A framed mirror that hides a slide-out compartment is perfect for a discreet jewelry stash. This design keeps pieces out of sight but easily accessible when you need them, and it doubles as decor on a wall or dresser.

6. Copper Pipe Necklace Holder
A length of copper pipe threaded with rope and mounted horizontally becomes an elegant necklace rack. S-hooks make it easy to hang multiple chains without tangling, and the metal finish adds an industrial yet chic accent.

7. Wooden Boards Jewelry Organizer System
Painted wooden boards fitted with cup hooks create a simple modular system. Mount several boards in a row to tailor storage to your collection—one for long necklaces, one for bracelets, and another for frequently worn pieces.

10. Recycled Silverware Tray Jewelry Organizer
An old silverware tray can be repurposed to hold rings, bracelets and small items. Its divided compartments are ideal for separating pieces and keeping everything in place inside a drawer or on a vanity.
