If you can’t see your jewelry, how will you remember to wear it? That’s my problem, anyway. Instead of stashing my necklaces, bracelets and earrings in jewelry boxes, I like to use clever organization to display them. When I can see everything, then I’ll actually put it on.
A cake stand makes a smart (and pretty!) way to display jewelry. Plus, it repurposes an item that doesn’t see a lot of other use. (Unless you whip up a bunch of cake stand-worthy baked goods all the time.) The dish portion of the stand provides the perfect space to corral smaller jewels and the raised pedestal adds visually-appealing height to wherever you place it.
Using a cake stand to display your jewelry couldn’t be easier. It’s the ultimate DIY. Simply take a cute cake stand and arrange your baubles on it. You can even dangle earrings off the edges of the dish. I like the look of my tarnished silver vintage cake stand, but any color would do. A glass cake stand would set off sparkly jewels nicely. Just use what you already have. You can’t go wrong.

You are so right about not being able to see jewelry. I never wear half my jewelry because I use my grandmother’s jewelry box and pile stuff on top. When it’s on the dresser, I can’t see high enough to wear any of it. BAH! I’m definitely going to try this one. I can’t wait to look for vintage cake stands at the flea market.

Oh how I understand that problem! 🙂 I hope you find some good cake stands! I think flea market shopping is more fun when you have something in mind that you’re looking for too.
