Declutter Your Jewelry With The Cutest DIY Seashell Organizer

Even with a comprehensive jewelry box, you'll always need some kind of trinket plate or organizer to help declutter and detangle the necklaces, rings, bracelets, and earrings. Of course, there are plenty to buy, but it's more fun to make it yourself. Some options include a DIY floral jewelry organizer using a Dollar Tree kitchen staple and a pool noodle hack perfect to organize jewelry storage.

But if you had a recent trip to the beach or bought some from a store, consider how to best save your seashells for decor and glue them together to create a cute, DIY jewelry holder. All you need are a bunch of shells (from the beach or bought from a store) and a hot glue gun or another type of glue. If you want to add any designs or colors, gather some craft supplies, like paints, beads, glitter, or ribbons. Together, these items can help you repurpose those shells from your vacation to help organize your jewelry.

First, fashion a base out of the seashells (with the hollow side down) or another material, like plastic or wood; it needs to be flat and sturdy. Adhere it together with the glue gun or another type of strong glue, like super glue. From there, use the adhesive to attach the varying different sizes and types of shells on top and beside each other. Build it up to as many tiers as you want. Large shells with the hollow side facing up act as dishes for stray rings and earrings, while prickly conches and starfish are perfect for draping your necklaces and bracelets over them.

Once everything is glued together, start decorating with paint or other materials. Options include pouring paint down the holder to make it look like a fountain or adding gems or beads to decorate it. If you have any shells leftover, use them for another DIY, like gluing them onto a jewelry box or a picture frame.
