The best part of the system is the modularity and the ability to cus- tomize to your storage needs. Richards will also provide easy tools such as brochures and design pads to help with the selling process. Richards will again have a large assortment of jewelry storage items.

It has hooks and baskets that can hold belts, scarves and other small acces- sories like small purses or sunglasses.

These trays can be used inside a drawer, or because they have a stacking feature built in, they can be neatly stacked on a dresser or vanity. Richards will also introduce more bangle bars that hold bracelets and necklaces, and some feature a tray at the base for even more functionality. Richards is introducing new items in its Clearly Chic line with more trays and drawer organizers for basic storage.
