Hello there. Today is the day that most people dread! Packing to move house!

I walked into the spare room to sort out my stuff then saw that I needed to find a way to move all my necklaces to the new house without them getting tangle (I had spent ages untangling them recently).

So I came online but couldnt really find anything that I could do.

Because of this, I wanted to go for a snack to make me feel better and i found this:



Then an idea came into my head. So I took all of my jewellery:

(Please ignore the background on this picture, it was that or my mirror with reflections of boxes.)

But anyway, I took my jewellery and lay my necklaces one by one one the wrapping film and wrapping them individually like so:
After wrapping all of my necklaces one after the other, it did get bulky and use a lot but hey, the film was one 15p at Morrisons haha. But then, I though about what to do with my bracelets. I didnt really need to put any in the film, except for a couple that would have tangles. So this was the final item:
I just put all my bracelets around the 'sausage' that I created with the necklaces. (I didn't take a photo but . . . ) after this, I wrapped it in another layer of film just so it didn't fall around in the box and there you go, a simple, cheap way to travel with your jewelery.
