Okay, so you could argue it is my fault for not reading the product description carefully but MAN was I surprised at how big this thing is. Takes up a lot more space than I had anticipated, but I guess what else can you expect for it to hold so many earrings.

Fortunatly, I have gotten used to it, and I think it is very nice! I used to have a much smaller stand but it would only fit about half my earrings. The other half I put in a drawer and then never ended up wearing them cuz I never saw them. This way my earrings are both nicely displayed and easy to see all at once! Also as a bonus, the stand has some hooks in the center and on the sides that can be used to hang bracelets or necklaces. I am not sure if that was their intention or not, but it works for me! Yay!
