If you’re anything like me, one of the trickiest things to pack for a trip is jewelry. I have a lot of necklaces, earrings, and bracelets, so forcing myself to minimize what I bring is tough. But the hardest part? Finding a way to store it all in my suitcase once I narrow it down. Carrying each item in an individual bag just takes up too much space and makes it very easy to lose things.

That’s why I was so excited to see a whole video from The Sister Shoppers (@thesistershoppers) on TikTok dedicated to their recommendation for a jewelry travel kit. This mini binder contains a bunch of clear pages with zipper pockets for bracelets, rings, necklaces, and watches. It can even fit sunglasses. You can also remove or add pages within the binder for more or less storage, with the video showing that a single page can fit easily in a purse. 

This genius product is the Travel Jewelry Organizer Case, available from Amazon starting at $21.59. It comes in many colors, including cream white, baby blue, toffee, and more. It closes with a button clasp, and the outside is quilted faux leather.

One Amazon reviewer wrote, “Finally found a jewelry case that delivers both style and functionality! … What distinguishes this case is its ingenious use of space — compartments are strategically arranged to maximize storage without increasing bulk. …The clasp mechanism deserves special mention — substantial enough to stay firmly closed during transit, yet elegant and easy to open when needed.” The product’s 200-plus 5-star Amazon reviews help make a pretty clear case for this being your new favorite travel tool.

Personally, I’m pumped to toss all the tiny jewelry bags and even the hard cases I’ve bought over the years to store my jewelry on trips. I think this binder will be the perfect way for me to save space while keeping my most prized possessions, aka my jewelry, secure.

Isabel is an incoming sophomore at the University of Vermont. She is studying public communication. She grew up in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, where she frequented the beach often during the summer. Even though her heart belongs to the ocean, the mountains are becoming a close contender. Her favorite part of living in Burlington, Vermont, for college is its unique coffee shops. Her perfect day would consist of going to a cute café in the morning, then spending the day at the beach swimming and reading, then ending the day by shopping and getting dressed up for a nice dinner downtown. Through Dorm Therapy, Isabel is excited to be a voice for young adults embarking on their college journeys and she hopes to make this big transition of life more comfortable for others in the same place as her.
