Lori Greiner’s first invention was a jewelry box

When Lori had her first idea for a product, she was working as a playwright and selling jewelry. Her side business inspired her to invent her first product, a jewelry box, which helped in organizing earrings.

In an interview in 2009, she recalled, “I thought, wouldn’t women just love to have something like this at home where instead of all their jewelry crumpled on top of each other… they would hang and you could see them like a fine jewelry display?”
