Jewelry Station and Organization

I am so excited to share this project with y’all!  I think its one of my favorite little projects so far.

In our closet we have a little nook built in between my shoe organizer and 3 drawers. It has slowly become a place to cram any and everything.  Yes, that is a fake rat.  His name is Ralph.  (Sister and I find no greater joy in life than secretly hiding him in the other’s house…he was last spotted in my one of the drawers below.)

When I saw this project from View Along the Way via I Heart Organizing, I was inspired to clean the space out and dress it up a little.  So long, Ralph!

I wanted to line the insides with fabric where I could hang my necklaces.  But I needed something thick to go under the fabric.  That’s where this little cardboard house my girls painted over a year ago that was junking just taking up space in the playroom closet comes in. I needed white cardboard since the fabric I chose from my stash was blue and white.  I cut pieces of the cardboard to fit the inside of my jewelry nook and hot glued the fabric to the back of the cardboard.

To attach the fabric-covered cardboard to the inside of the closet organizer I used a few extra Command Hooks refills.  I LOVE those things!

Here’s the view after I attached the cardboard to the “wood.”

Then I just added a couple of jewelry holders that I already had.  This one holds all my bracelets.

 
My favorite part of the whole space is the Pink High Heels print that I found on Etsy by Kelsey McNatt.  I slipped it in a frame I’ve had forever along with my favorite Instagram picture of my girls.  The “tray” underneath is actually the bottom of a two-tiered cupcake stand that broke off.   

I used straight pins to hold all of my necklaces.  Would-be robbers, don’t waste your time coming to my house to steal them…99% of it is costume jewelry 🙂

 
My dangle earrings are hanging on an old toothbrush holder I found at my Mom’s house.  She keeps everything and clearly the apple hasn’t fallen far from the tree.
 

I found the white “egg crate” for my earrings at World Market and the Blue one at HomeGoods.  Other than the high heels print, those were the only items I bought for the space.  I already had everything else.

What do you think? Do you have a similar spot to display your jewels?
