A different way to do stuff...


Sometimes I think that jewellery boxes are a waste of space, and also I like to add little quirky things to my room to add interest. So this is my alternate way to store jewellery and trinkets. I have had this idea for a very long time, I don't know what inspired me but I always thought it would look cool. I was originally going to buy some vintage, mismatched ones from a charity shop but they were never quite right.

Until a couple of months ago when I was on a shopping trip with my mum and ended up in Marks and Spencer! I was bored and wandering around until I came to the sale section, I spotted a set of two tea cups and saucers reduced to £5 from £20. They are smaller than your average tea cup and have this cute mint green splodges print with yellow edging. This goes with my room well, as my walls are white and I like to accessorise with colour. So I walked out of marks and spencer looking like a crazy tea lady (I actually am one, I even have the word tea in my name...).

It is perfect storage for rings and bracelets as you can put them in the cup, on the saucer and drape bracelets over the edges to make it look cooler. I don't own much jewellery so this along with my jewellery shell (another cool idea) fits it all in. Do you have any creative storage ideas?
