...the boxes that your jewerly came in?

 

I have a drawer full of boxes.  I have a large jewerly storage cabinet that I keep everthing in so I don't use the boxes....and why did I keep them in the first place?

 

I need someone to tell me it's ok to throw away the boxes, thanks!

It's perfectly fine to toss the jewelry boxes, I had to do the same thing recently!

 

I was surprised to see how much real estate I freed up on my long dresser, where they'd been piling up!

@Mom2Dogs    No I have a dozen or so big Prestige tarnish resistant boxes from Colleen Lopez at HSN.  Clear lids so you can see what's in them.  That alone should convince you.

@Kachina624   I have all my jewelry stored in a free standing cabinet so storage of the actual pieces is not an issue.  

 

Throwing away the boxes they came to me in is what is in question and as @KingstonMom  said, she pitched hers recently and I now feel like I can let mine go, why I saved them is beyond me!

I'm not sure why, but I've never saved them in the first place--very uncharacteristic of me.  But I'm glad I don't have any piled up somewhere.  You will feel better when they're gone!

The only one I ever kept is the box my engagement ring came in, along with a note from my soon to be husband.

@Mom2Dogs  I do the same thing but I use them for other jewelry. I also have a jewelry box and drawer so I also don't know why I keep them. I think we can clear some out!

I keep the velvet lined black boxes I have from Tiffany's. The newer blue boxes are pretty too. The blue pouches are nice when traveling. In fact, David Yurman pouches are also pretty. I am a minimalist when it comes to handbags, clothing and shoes but jewelry is my weakness..
