DIY Jewelry Holders

I saw this idea & knew I had to try it.  For a while now I've been wanting to organize my mess of earrings & necklaces.  This was the perfect solution.  Plus I had everything in my garage!
You'll need a frame with the glass & backing removed, wire, staple gun, & hot glue.  This is how the back looks.  Super easy.  Decide where you want to put your wires & cut them accordingly.
Simple staple the wire to the back of the frame & curl the wire around the staple to prevent it from sliding.  I had to use heavy duty staples because my staple gun grew legs & walked away.  I think it had an accomplice who lives in my very own home & is married to me, but I'm not going to name any names.  Anywho, lightweight staple gun will work just fine.
I wanted some hooks for my bracelets so I made some by twisting & bending the wire.
These I hot glued onto the back to get them more flush, but you could staple them as well.  Just make sure they won't slide out of the staple.  You could put some of these on the bottom for necklaces as well & they would work great.
That's it, your done.  Hang it on the wall & organize away.  I love having my earrings laid out before me & not having to dig for the mate to the one i want to wear.  Plus this project reminded me of some jewelry I had forgotten about.  It looks pretty nifty in my room as well.
I also wanted to organize my mass amounts of necklaces.  I found these hook like things in our barn.  I'm not sure what they are for.  Maybe a towel rack?  All I knew was that I could screw them to the wall & hang necklaces off of them.  So I did just that.
They were white porcelain, so I spray painted them a color I liked.  I also sprayed the screws I was going to us.  I attached them to the wall & my work was done & my necklaces organized.  These also look very nice on the wall of my room.  A sort of practical decorating I guess.

So dig around for an old frame & found objects.  Your jewelry will be organized & displayed in no time!
