New Jewelry Organizer
Filed in archive by tammy on March 16, 2007
from my husband who insists it will show up some day...argh...so for now I have jewelry in jewelry boxes, in drawers, in plastic dividers bins, in zip lock baggies. If you were to take a tour of my home, I pretty much bet you'd find jewelry or beads in every single room of the house. So, I'm all for getting organized because so often I forget what I have because I can't see it. Or, even more frustrating, I know I have a certain necklace or pair of earrings, but I can't find them.
I'm probably not the only jewelry fanatic with this issue, and that is exactly what inventor Alison Albanese hopes for. She has created a new jewelry organizer called Longstem Organizers. From Harrison inventor helps women organize their jewelry:
"I was always unorganized with my jewelry," Albanese says. "And I'm a very organized person. I tried everything from jewelry boxes to pouches to you name it."
The next step - logical to Albanese, ambitious for most others - was to design something that finally brought a sense of order.
"I did a prototype out of cardboard and coat hangers," she says.
And that makeshift model, based on an idea that came to her in April of 2005, has evolved into the Longstem Organizers.
Albanese began selling it in December through Longstem Productions, which is based in Cold Spring. [...]
After all, the Longstem Jewelry Organizer, a steel-based unit, is just the first of many Longstem Organizers Albanese hopes to introduce.
But first, she needs to get the $69.99 organizer out to women who will happily hang it from their closet door or mount it on any wall.
When she does, she says, it will end those searches for that matching earring, stop those necklaces from tangling into balls and provide a resting place for jewelry normally tossed aside after a late night out.
The organizer's design is simple and functional, a study in white made fanciful by a decorative scroll along its top.
And while the example Albanese shows off is filled with dozens of necklaces, bracelets and rings, she declines to assign any capacity numbers.
