I did this several years ago too! I have an old piano bench at the foot of our bed with a lid that opens. One morning I woke up and thought "Hmmmm...I think egg cartons will fit perfectly in there and the whole bench inside can be my jewelry box!" My Dad loved the idea and so did my hubby ;-) Just saw this egg carton idea on an old Knock Off Decor post. I did this several years ago too!

Also, when I was married I never took off my ring for three years, I even wore it to work in the food industry. When I stopped wearing it, it took me a long time to get used to my finger being so naked. You're not weird! I love the egg crate idea!

I have something similar for my jewelery but it's not nearly as nice looking as this. A fabric background would big a big improvement over the natural cork on mine I think, and I love the ribbons across and throughout. Great reuse of materials. I love it!

I'm usually wearing my wedding set when I'm out of the house, but if I'm staying in I'll either put it on or not put it on depending on what I'm doing. I don't sleep in it or shower in it, and I frequently take it off for household activities (like cleaning, manual labor, cooking) or going to the gym. It's pretty big with lots of little diamonds (I'm a lucky girl!) so it's not worth the risk to me. My husband...poor husband. We've been married six weeks and he already lost (and found) his ring...but not before I ordered him a new one! Good thing titanium is super inexpensive. The ring bugs him to wear, especially when engaging in athletic activities, but he's trying! Definitely NOT a permawearer of the rings!

I couldn't agree more with only keeping a few pieces in rotation. It makes decisions much easier, and it's exciting to pull out the "old" stuff again! Love the egg crate idea.

I think it's so sweet that you always wear your rings. I can't say that I always wear mine, but more often than most. I sleep and shower in it as well. My mom works at a hospital and told me about an 80 year old patient who needed to be prepped for surgery and she absolutely refused to take off her ring. She said it has never been off her finger since the day she was married. How sweet! I know this post is older but I had to comment! I think it’s so sweet that you always wear your rings.
