Jewelry Hanger

I have a jewelry box that sits on top my dresser. It really isn't too bad looking......until you open the lid!


 The part I've always disliked about a jewelry box was that the necklace's are always tangled and I can never find a matching pair of earrings!

 I've been brain storming for a while about this, so finally decided to do something about it!


 I found a plastic coated wire hanger, an old picture frame (minus the glass and backing) black spray paint and a piece of window screen.

I painted the old picture frame black and let dry, then hot glued the screen to the back of it. I used wire cutters to cut the clothes hanger and bent it with a pair of pliers, so that the wire would bend around the back of the frame and hot glued them into place. (the large one at the bottom for the necklaces and the small at the top for anklets and bracelets) I also cut the hook from the hanger to use to hang my jewelry holder on the wall.

I really like the finished project, except there is no place to put my post earrings and that it is almost too small. I think I'll make another one a bit larger and add a spot for post earrings.....(I'll put up pics when I do!)


Also, I really need to add a little more color to my jewelry collection!

One of my favorite places to buy jewelry at is KT Plum International. and Kohls also has good jewelry that you can buy at clearance prices sometimes.


These could also make great birthday or Christmas gifts!

    Great jewelry hanger! I love it when jewelry becomes wall art as well as wearable art. Hopped over from Tip Me Tuesday on Tip Junkie.

A List of Uses for Shaklee Basic-H  Since there are over 1,001 uses it has been difficult to compile a complete list. So, here are a few to start! First, how should Basic-H generally be used?
