DIY: Jewelry Organizer

I had been using a bottle of Fabreeze to hold my bracelets, hanging my necklaces over a sconce and just placing my rings on my nightstand.  That was my jewelry organizer.  I knew I wanted to make one myself, but wasn’t exactly sure how I should do it.  After doing a bit of searching the internet this is what I came up with.  I thought of it around 11 pm one night before going to bed and completed it within 20 minutes.  That time is including gathering the supplies around my house.

 

Jewelry Organizer

I started with this 12” x 12” shadow box frame.  (I have one in stock, $15.99)

I had a couple of pieces of 12” x 12” cork board.  I only needed one for this project.

 

I chose a pretty piece of 12” x 12” patterned paper.  I have SO much to chose from!

 

(Please excuse the blurry picture.)

Then I had a bowl full of old push pins.  I’d like to buy some new, prettier push pins the next time I come across some in the store, and trade them out for these ugly neon colored push-pins. 

After putting it all together, with no adhesive necessary, I might add, I added my precious jewels.  80% of these are hand-made by me.

 

Obviously, I can easily change out the paper if it gets too holey or if I get bored of it.

Hi Robin! Just wanted to say a big thank you for leaving such a kind comment on my 7 Gypsies Artist Tray on the Aussie Scrap Source blog. It's been a nervous time getting back into the crafting game after 2 years away and I have quite a different style than most of the other girls on the team. So I really appreciate the feedback on my design. Just checking out your blog and see this fabulous jewelry holder! What a terrific idea!!! Thanks again,
Chris.

Super cool! I really need a place to store all my jewelry...and what's better, I can display it at the same time. I just got about 5 necklaces from http://ispirada.com and now I have a place to put them! I really like the fact that you can easily change the background paper. Good job- Thanks!
