[DIY] Jewelry Organization + Photos from the Week

I've received lots of compliments on my little jewelry wall organizer, so I thought I'd make a post about it and show how simple it is.  I am by far one of the most unorganized and messy people I know, but one of my resolutions for this year was to try and get my house together and keep it a little less cluttered.  Mr. H is also extremely unorganized and constantly misplacing and losing things, so you can imagine what our room looks like.  We are not slobs by any means.  We don't leave food or trash all over our home, it's just our clothes, accessories, and shoes are everywhere.  We share a fairly small closet with a top shelf and one eight-hole cubby unit, so our clothes do not come close to fitting in their assigned places.  But I do have one thing organized, and that's my jewelry and hair clip rack (and I am damn proud of this tiny bit of non-chaos).


It is so simple and yet it brings me a tiny bit of peace in my disheveled room.  Can you guess what it is?  If you guessed dish towel rack, you are correct!  Hahaha.  I bought this nifty hanger from Target for a mere $3.99 when I first bought my home a few years ago!  You screw it into the wall and there you have it, a jewelry organizer!  I just recently added a ribbon on the left end so that I could pin my hair clips up as well.  The only thing it doesn't hold is stud earrings and bangles.  You could easily add another ribbon on the right side for stud earrings, but I'm still trying to figure out what to do about the bangles issue.  Any ideas?

I took care of my Aunti's shiba inu puppy on Sunday and Monday and he was so adorable.  I really would love to get another dog, but we don't have time, especially since we are hoping to get pregnant soon.  Not to mention, Ziggy (our chihuahua) was extremely jealous and acting like a total dick.

Sweet baby Sammy.
And last, here are some photos from my 365 project that I've been doing really well on (with the help of an iPhone app).  I've always wanted to do a 365 project but always mess up and forget about it.  I can't wait to put them all together once the year is over and see if my appearance has changed.
