Organizational Skills (or Lack Thereof)




Like many other fashionistas, I have a home for my jewelry. After a while, and a growing collection, things just get piled on top of each other causing what I like to call an "organized mess!" I try to keep things organized, I have a jewelry armoire with a drawer of bracelets, rings, earrings, two compartments with pegs for necklaces and a drawer filled with even more necklaces. It's my way of trying to keep things sane! 
Recently I was introduced to this product that is supposed to maintain an accessory addict's headache to a minimum, it's called the Necklace Saver. The product is a pretty colored bag of organza fabric with a slot to insert the necklace in and keep it untangled. You also have the choice to pick from 3 colors (aqua, orchid, or light pink) and 2 lengths and 3 widths. 

Necklace: Anthropologie

I made sure to utilize an abstract shaped necklace to test it out! 



To my surprise the necklace fit in the organza pouch really easily. As a side note, the transparent purple compliments the green of the necklace really well too, seems like the perfect holiday color combination! Just imagine a drawer filled with these pouches and necklaces neatly tied in, an "organized mess" no more!

Tried it again with a different necklace, no success. The widest width the Necklace Saver offers is 3 inches, which doesn't work with a lot of my big "bib" necklaces. 
All in all, I'd give this product a 4 out of 5, I didn't give it a full five because it doesn't offer wider widths to fit the growing trend of non traditional necklace shapes. It's still a great product to maintain your necklaces, keep your jewelry area organized, and save yourself some time by not having to untangle knots, which I need! Plus every purchase of the Necklace Saver donates a portion of every sale to help support children in need, around the world. Christmas is just around the corner,  this would make great stocking stuffers! 
Dear readers, what do you think of this product? Would you buy it?
