TJ Maxx Jewelry Box Find

I was shopping at TJ Maxx today after work when I stumbled upon a whole end-cap full of jewelry boxes. Pretty cheap from about 30-50 dollars depending on what size you need. 50

I spent $40 on my mid sized Red Envelope knockoff one, better than the full retail price of $120 for the real one found HERE. (and mine comes with a lock and key instead of a cheap monogrammed leather piece) :]

They are lined with a nice soft liner and have plenty of storage potential in them. Mine even came with a mini travel jewelry box that has a mirror and place for earring studs, just like the designer one.

Now is the time to go grab one at your local TJ Maxx before everyone else grabs them first. 

I use the box for my jewelry like bracelets and long strands that are too long to hang on my jewelry tree. I bought the tree from target for $20

What neat ways do you have of keeping your jewelry organized and tangle free?

Home Update: Ikea Meets Elfa

I wanted to update everyone on how my loft is coming along. Monday I went to Ikea and bought a ton of furniture to update my closet as well as my loft. The loft looks good so far, but the closet is still a work in progress.

I love my little laptop desk where I can sit around a bunch of inspiring elements while designing graphics.

 

Trev's side is still coming together. we have a lot of things were donating lying around so excuse the mess.

Meanwhile here are some pictures of the progress in the closet:

My handy dandy drill and a bunch of Ikea parts, lets get to work!

Trev's side of the closet is coming together quite nicely

            

I organized his T-Shirts by folding them and filing them, I learned this from Alejandra's brilliant organization skills. His under shirt tank tops I just folded into threes and rolled up neatly and the underwear is folded nicely next to it.

So what are you tips to organize your closet?
