AW my jewelry holder project

[starrieskies]

Hopefully this PIP works...

Ok, so it's not quite finished, and the lighting in my bedroom sucks apparently.  But I hope you can get the general idea.  I'm pretty excited about how it is coming along, so I thought I'd share.

These are hanging in my room above my night stand.  The colors are teal, purple, and 2 shades of gray (the same colors in my bedspread).  I know the picture makes them all look a little green, but that's just the glitter paint I added to make them a little sparkly.

The two in the middle (obviously) aren't finished, but the one will be an earring holder, and the other one a mirror.  I haven't decided if I want the mirror on the top or the bottom.

No more tangled necklaces for me!!Attachment Deleted

This looks awesome!

Thanks! I don't have a jewelry box, and was getting tired of spending a ridiculous amount of time untangling my necklaces and searching for my earrings. I had these random picture frames that I bought and never used and thought it might be a fun way to use them.

Love it!!

Oh yeah, and I like that it keeps my necklaces out of DS's reach too!

Very cute! You'll have to take another picture when is all done!

How are you going to attach the earrings?

Most of my earrings are a French Wire style rather than a post style, so that made it a little easier.  I'm going to use plastic canvas for now because it's what I have on hand.  I can just slide the posts through the little square holes and hang them.  I just need to trim the canvas down to size.  I used solid wood frames, so I'll probably just staple the canvas to the inside of the frame.   I'd like to do something a little bit prettier later for the earrings, but it'll work for now.
