Organizing your jewelry and accessories can be a daunting task. But it doesn’t have to be! With a little creativity, you can easily repurpose items you already have to create a functional and stylish storage solution.
If you’re looking for a stylish and unique way to organize your jewelry, consider repurposing an old wooden cutlery or silverware tray from your local thrift store.
These trays make great jewelry organizers, and they can add a touch of character to your space. Plus, thrifting is a great way to score high-quality items at a fraction of the cost.
You may be surprised at how many pieces of jewelry a small silverware tray can accommodate. This is a great way to organize your jewelry and keep it all in one place. Plus, it’s a great way to display your jewelry so you can see everything at a glance.
The little ‘shelves’ the dividers make of the silverware tray can be used for storing jewelry boxes, earrings, or rings. You can also use the dividers to create different sections for different types of jewelry. You can also use cut-out handles (if any) for holding clasp bracelets and watches!
In addition to using cut-out handles for holding clasp bracelets and watches, you can also use them for a variety of other purposes. For example, you can use them to hold keychains, lanyards, and other small items. Additionally, they can be used to make a variety of DIY crafts, such as bracelets, necklaces, and earrings.
Simply repaint the silverware tray to transform it into a jewelry organizer that suits your style or room, and add hooks to hang your necklaces, earrings, and bracelets. It’s that easy! Just make sure not to install too many hooks in each compartment since you don’t want your accessories to get all tangled.
You can put your beautiful jewelry ogranizer on your vanity table if you have enough space. But what’s even better is to have them hanging on a wall where you can see them all at once. This way, you can easily grab the piece you want without having to search through a box or drawer.
Plus, it looks much nicer than a pile of jewelry on your dresser! Now you have an easy-access, space-saving, and inexpensive jewelry organizer.
Think a small or regular-sized silverware tray won’t be able to hold all your accessories? Why not look for two or three old silverware trays? This way, you’ll be able to store everything neatly and organized. Plus, it’ll give you the opportunity to upcycle some old items instead of throwing them away.

How to turn old silverware into jewelry organizer?
If you have your silverware tray with you, you can start by cleaning it and sanding down old paints or finishes. This will help you to get a better idea of the areas that need to be addressed and how to achieve the desired look.
Once you have removed the old paint from the tray, you can then repaint it with your chosen colour. Using a stencil would make it look more beautiful and professional. Then you can start installing the cup hooks and D-ring hangers.
If you have a lot of different types of jewelry, you may want to consider getting multiple silverware tray jewelry organizers. That way, you can keep your necklaces, rings, and earrings all organized and separated. This can help you avoid tangles and damage to your jewelry.
