I don't know about you, but when I travel, I need to have accessories or I don't feel quite dressed. I have an antique jewelry travel bag that I have been using for years and I simply LOVE it!
Because, some of you might not have a great bag like this, I wanted to deliver a few other tips to help you keep you jewelry organized while you travel.
- If you don't have a pre-made jewelry bag, you can use small cloth pouches to keep your jewelry organized while traveling. Store all smaller cloth pouches into one large pouch or ziplock bag.
- Separating and storing gold from silver accessories will make it easier to find what you need when you are living out of a suitcase.
- Pair necklaces with earrings when packing so they come out together when you unpack.
- Use straws to keep dainty chain necklaces from kinking while in your suitcase. Simply run one end through the straw and attach the clasp at the other end. Trim your straw to fit the necklace length. These long straws can be stored within a sock.
- Do the same with chunky necklaces and bracelets but use an empty toilet paper rolls instead. It does not matter if they get smashed and you might even want to smash them in advance so they will take up less room in your suitcase.
- If you are worried about losing your valuable jewelry when traveling, store your jewelry in a sock and keep it paired with it's mate in the drawer with your socks and undies.
- Want to keep post earrings organized while traveling? Cut a small square of window screen and attach all earrings onto the screen. Place this screen into a ziplock bag.
