Jewerly Heaven or Hell...you decide

Wanna see what 75 pounds of jewerly looks like?

The first picture is totally out of focus.

In my defense, my eyes were already glazed over...
I'm athinkin' that I'm totally out of my league on this one.

What should I do?

I need to do something or we may never eat at our dining room table again...ever.

Crafter's HEAVEN, for sure! I'd be sitting there running my fingers through it all...setting aside the ones that are still wearable, grouping the ones to turn into something else (cards, more jewelry, fashion accessories, adornments for other crafts)...makes my fingers just twitch....when can I come & play?
♥hugs♥

Need anyone to detangle the chains? I used to be a pro at it! Was such a stress reliever from busy VRC days.

How-what-when-where?-but no why. The things you can do.I will definitely be watching to see if any end up as porch decor. Love all of your out of the box thinking on flower pots and holders. Working your way through all of that could become a love/hate relationship. I am sure the little girls will love helping with that project.

Arr... a bountiful booty you have there!

That's going to be fun sorting everything. Good thing you have all those extra hands to help you! :o)

oh I thought of one more....treasure box! My kids love to earn trips to the treasure box. You could even donate some of it to the teachers at school for their treasure box!

Came across your blog. I too have nine kiddos. And believe or not we too just got done saving every penny to go to Disneyland and just got back. I am posting this just to make sure you heard about Disney's "give a day get a day" promotion. I'm sure you have, but just in case you hadn't: http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/disneyparks/en_US/WhatWillYouCelebrate/index?name=Give-A-Day-Get-A-Disney-Day

We rented a house right near disneyland which was the cheapest option for all 11 of us. Would love to swap notes if you think it would help. My wife did all the planning, so I'm sure she would love to share more than you care to know ;)
