Modular and expandable jewelry organizer

Abstract

The contemplated modular jewelry organizer has a base and fixed segment that one or many modular segments may be connected to. The modular segments may be connected to each other to create longer segments. The connection may be facilitated by magnets. The modular segments may be separated from each other and from the fixed segment by retainment rings which prevent jewelry placed on one segment from moving to another segment.

1 . A jewelry organizer comprising:
 a base;   a fixed segment; and   a plurality of modular segments which are attached to said fixed segment to form said jewelry organizer.   
     
     
         2 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 1 , wherein the fixed segment is fixed relative to the base. 
     
     
         3 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 2 , wherein the plurality of modular segments may be removably connected to each other to create longer segments. 
     
     
         4 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 3 , wherein said modular segments are removably connected to each other via a magnetic connection. 
     
     
         5 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 3 , wherein the plurality of modular segments may be removably connected to the fixed segment. 
     
     
         6 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 5 , wherein the modular segments are removably connected to said fixed segment via a magnetic connection. 
     
     
         7 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 5 , wherein the connected plurality of modular segments and fixed segments define a jewelry storage section. 
     
     
         8 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 7 , wherein a user may remove one or more of the modular segments while leaving one or more modular segments connected to the fixed segment. 
     
     
         9 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 7 , wherein the modular segments comprise one or more retainment rings. 
     
     
         10 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 9 , wherein the retainment rings prevent jewelry placed on one segment from sliding to another segment. 
     
     
         11 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 1 , wherein each modular segment comprises a post at a first end and a receptacle at a second end. 
     
     
         12 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 11 , wherein said post comprises a magnet and said receptacle comprises metal. 
     
     
         13 . The jewelry organizer of  claim 11 , wherein said post comprises metal and said receptacle comprises a magnet. 
     
     
         14 . A modular segment for a jewelry organizer comprising:
 a main body;   a post;   a receptacle; and   at least one retainment ring.   
     
     
         15 . The modular segment of  claim 14 , wherein the post and receptacle are similarly sized. 
     
     
         16 . The modular segment of  claim 15 , wherein the post of one modular segment may be received by the receptacle of another modular segment. 
     
     
         17 . The modular segment of  claim 16 , wherein the receiving of a modular segment's post by another modular segment's receptacle creates a removable connection. 
     
     
         18 . The modular segment of  claim 17 , wherein the removable connection is created by a magnetic connection between one modular segment's post and another modular segment's receptacle. 
     
     
         19 . The modular segment of  claim 18 , wherein the post contains a magnet. 
     
     
         20 . The modular segment of  claim 18 , wherein the receptacle contains a magnet. 
     
     
         21 . The modular segment of  claim 18 , wherein the post and receptacle each contain a magnet.
