My Ring Storage!!

Heeelllooo Ladeez!!  I thought I would focus on storage as my first post, so here goes.....


I used to keep all my costume rings an a ceramic pot but got fed up of fumbling through to find the one I wanted so I put on the thinking cap and this is what I came up with......



........Just a piece of foam......simples :-)
I quickly decided that this was a no go as where would I put it???


So, I 'borrowed' a box from my office and put the foam inside.


Soon my collection started mating and the ring family grew very quickly so I decided to make a drawer set!




Outer Box



Enough boxes to fit inside the outer box, these will be the drawers


Remove lid from top box

Cut a piece of card the same height of the drawer

Glue pieces of card to the inside of the outer box

Insert a piece of card to act as a shelf type thingy


Insert next drawer and mark where next shelf needs to go

Cut more card




Glue below top shelf

Insert second shelf

Cut more side pieces to support shelf







Remove lids & flaps

You are left with a drawer

Obtain a piece of foam

Place drawer on top of foam and cut to size

Insert foam into drawer


I sprayed mine then cut slits suitable for ring size

Insert rings!!!!

Taaaaaa  Daaaaaa!!


I intend on covering the outer box and drawer fronts with good old sticky back plastic but am yet to find one that I like.

I hope that you like this post and possibly even try it out for yourself.

If you do be sure to let me know how you get on!

How do you store yours'?
