Kuwentong Tambay: Organizing your Accessories

Aaminin ko na isa akong makalat at burarang tao. Because I have a tendency to buy a LOT of useless things, lalung-lalo na mga abubot, woke up one day na extremely payatas level kalat na siya sa desk.
Dahil chipipay din naman ang mga ito, they corrode or get broken  easily. So bilang tambay, I (finally) had the time to look for ways to act all Martha Stewart and fix 'em.

So I'd like to share a couple of blogs na super ayos lang:

So pag kuripot ka lang bumili ka na lang corkboard and magnakaw ng thumbtacks sa office. Chos. Solve ka na. :Lowdown lang nito, you can't put the heavy and chunky abubot because the thumb tacks might give way. 

Next? BANGLES. Bilang kahit bata pa ako I STOCK on them pero never ko naman ginagamit ng bongga. I saw a couple of blogs na bumili pa ng mannequin na kamay para mapaglagyan ang abubot o kaya sa isang fruit stand. Pero this site: http://www.theposhspace.com/tag/how-to-organize-bracelets/ offers a better option and very creative ng designs:


So kung tanggera ka tulad ko, finally magkakaroon ng silbi ang Red Horse 500 ml mo. Tenen, improvised holder ng bangles! Diba? its a reminder that may silbi din naman pala ang pagtutungga.


Or, you can try this idea http://www.smilesgowitheverything.com/2008/12/07/jewelry-organization/. I love how she's able to make use of tabla and chopsticks (or puede din drumsticks ni Rex). 

So there? Kung medyo feel mo magyabang sa friends mo, "Hey I drink "expensive craft beer" ngayon you can use the 500 ml Anderson Valley alak instead of Redhorse. 

This is how she tied the sticks together (ayan na friends puede niyo talaga ipagyabang ang Php500+ na boteng beer na iniinom niyo). Notice niyo sa taas, ang tabla with the hooks. Puedeng puede magnakaw sa kapitbahay at lagyan ng hook (voila!) instant lagayan ng necklace.

Another idea from: http://www.theposhspace.com/2012/01/jewelry-organizing-part-2-necklaces/ is using old  frames and mga ninakaw na branches sa kapitbahay:

Ganda diba?! Pero again, puede lang dito ung magaan lang na mga accessories.

Here's another version from ate as well:

At the end of the day, isa sa importanteng lesson na natutunan ko its all about making your life easier. There are days na super nakakatamad lang magayos ng gamit or nakakatamad lang ilagay sa tamang lagayan ang mga bagay-bagay. Your organizer must stay organized or else ano pang silbi nyan? 

Lastly, puede ding baklasin ang gamit ni inay sa kusina for your accessories:

Perfect! For heavy chunky necklace and you can separate your earrings and bangles above. :)
