How do you store your costume jewellery?

I have accumulated an absolute ton of costume jewellery and need to think about organising it all. At the moment I have a divided section in my wardrobe which is ok for rings and earings but I have so many braclets they are all just dumped in there. Necklaces are on a coat hanger in the wardrobe as are belts and scalves but I was just wondering if there was a better storage solution.

Thinking the same myself!
Quite fancy something like this, but cheaper!

I keep my costume jewllery (that doesn't fit on my necklace hanger/small jewlery box) in a massive make up/travel bag wrapped in tissue paper/boxes (most of it is vintage/delicate).
Feels like playing a lucky dip everytime I fish out a piece!

Mumelie, that looks gorgeous!

I hang mine on something like this

my jewellery is deffo not vintage or delicate - it's all from high street stores and recently purchased. I REALLY want one of those chest things now! IDh will go mad if I buy one! I have absolutly no where to put one either!

Sooo want one of those chests but just too much £ at the mo. Also have had these in the past. They do really stay up (so had to leave in fitted wardrobes when we moved)! Good for necklaces, but nothing else.

ooh cardoon that's nice, and a bargain!

I separate my costume jewellery into clear plastic food bags. They are all stored in a clear make up/travel bag from M&S.

I have a set of drawers, the ones that have a metal frame and those sort of seagrass/raffia drawers. Not particularly chic, I know, but from Next for a reasonable price and good for chunky stuff that won't fit in a jewellery box.

I have the best thing ever!!! Cork notice board on inside of wardrobe with map/drawing pins/hooks inserted then necklaces/brackets hang beautifully.
