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.
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 🙂
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?
