I'm starting to have a lot of jewelry. I have a really beautiful jewelry box, but it's not big enough, and my necklaces were getting tangled up. I tried hanging them on a clothes hanger but that idea was a total fail. Then I remembered the previous owners had left cork boards in every room. My husband had taken them down and insisted on keeping them... I'm so glad I found a use for one. You can use the board as a decorative item for your room if you add a nice frame, paint it or add ribbons... but mine is in my closet, so I kept it simple.
MATERIALS:
Cork board
Push pins
Jewelry

1. Place the pins on the board.

2. Hang your jewelry.

I filled in gaps with more pins to hang earrings and bracelets.
What is your favorite kind of jewelry? What is your favorite jewelry store?
Yup, it's that easy!

I used colored push pins in the tutorial so you could see them better, but on my display I used clear and white pins.

This is a really great idea c:
ReplyDeleteVery neat as well!

Hi Sarah! Ahah, mine was too before I thought of this. Well, the ones that didn't fit in my jewelry box. ;)
ReplyDeleteYes!!! Although you wouldn't believe how many of my DIY ideas didn't work out. So sad. Lol. At least some of them are good. ;)
ReplyDeleteThis DIY project is so easy to do and I love neat they all look. I, on the other hand, keep them in plastic containers. I don't know. I like to display them but I don't like it when people touch them.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kisty!! It's actually hidden in my big closet. So no one but me gets to see it. (: If I used it as decoration I'd probably add a nice frame or some colorful fabric in the background.
ReplyDeleteWe definitely know the feeling! Trust me! We kept seeing crayon art on pinterest, for example, so we decided to try it out... We ended up with our colors running together and looking like mud. I think it might be because we got excited when it started to look good and didn't take our time with it/plan what colors to use in advance but once we'd wasted one box of crayons we retired that tutorial lol
