Okay, I must admit, this particular solution didn't work out for me, primarily because it will only work with necklaces that have clasps, BUT it was a stellar idea that ended up starting my addiction to PVC.
I was trying to come up with ideas to store all of my necklaces while maintaining counter space on my dresser, the solution? A curtain rod! Could have used a shower rod, but I happened to have an extra curtain rod so that's what I went with.
Now what I actually ended up going with has become a staple of my PVC creations, a jewelry organizer that will hold both bracelets and necklaces that hardly takes up any counter space!
