Earrings are one of the most finicky pieces of jewelry to keep track of. They need to be kept in pairs and they are often lost. Unfortunately, Earrings displays can be expensive, the wrong size, or the wrong style and color. Luckily, it is quite simple to find different items to hold earrings in.



Buttons can be a fun item for earring packaging. They can serve as a sort of “ earrings card” if you put the ear wires or posts through the button’s holes. Using buttons this way can also keep a pair of earrings nicely rounded up during travel or shipping (earrings love to move around inside their gift boxes whenever they have the chance!).



Buttons can add a memorable, handmade touch to your packaging – especially if they’re a good match with the style of Jewelry you make.And for keeping your own earring pairs together at home, buttons are a great solution!Also, buttons with two holes will work better than those with four. Once you have your earrings in the buttons, you can keep them in a box, dish, or drawer. Avoid coat buttons or buttons that have a single loop in the back.



Tips
Sort your earrings based on color. This could be the color of the gemstone or the color of the metal.

Sort your earrings based on size and shape. Keep all the stud earrings together in one place, and all of the hook earrings together in another place.



Keep earrings that you wear often on display, and the earrings you wear seldom safely tucked away.

A plastic compartment box, like the kind used for storing beads or embroidery floss, is perfect for storing earrings in! If you see an earring holder that you like, but is the wrong color, you can always spray paint it a different color.
