Creating Stations

An important part of organizing is utilizing your natural routine to create spaces that make putting things away easier. You want your system to work with you, not against you. It should not be hard to put things away, if you have the right set up.

For example, in our bedroom, I have created a little "get pretty" station on my dresser, where I keep my most worn jewelry and perfumes.





Dresser with vanity mirror: IKEA, Jewelry tree: Urban Outfitters (really old, similar here), Egg crate: Anthropologie (here), Clock: IKEA, Frame: Target

The egg crate works great to store my everyday earrings, rings, watch, and bracelett when I take them off at night. I used to always lose earrings because I would take them off at random places and forget where I put them, now I always put them on this little crate and know exactly where they are in the morning! It works out perfectly!

  2. I love the egg crate as well. What a great idea! I still have all of my jewelry in a box under my bed hence the reason why I never wear any anymore. I need to remember this when I finally get around to doing my bedroom.

    1. Thank you!! Yeah, I have some jewelry in another jewelry box that I never wear. It's got to be easily accessible!
