Check out how to make this cute DIY jewelry organizer! I chose to hang mine on the side of my wardrobe and by using Command Picture Hanging Strips (pictured below) the removal and installation will be quick and mess free! Scroll down to see what you will need...
What you will need:
- Pre-finished white board or a piece of wood that you have lying around would work
- Black paint [and white if you need to finish the board yourself]
- Scotch Painters tape, the kind I used is pictured below
- 5 screw in hooks
- Package of 3M Command Large Picture Hanging Strips
How to make it:
1. Take any piece of wood you have lying around, if you don't have anything readily handy try heading to your local arts and crafts supply store and they may have pre-finished pieces of wood specifically designed for crafts! The piece I used was 18 inches by 4 inches.
2. Paint the entire piece white, you will want to use two coats of white. If you buy a piece of wood that is already pre-finished with white paint skip this step.
3. Use painters tape to cover the sections of the board that you want to remain white for your Chevron design. I used 1 inch wide tape, pictured below and it worked great. You can make the Chevron pattern as vertical or horizontal as you want.
4. Paint around the tape with black paint. Make sure your brush stroke are going in the same direction. Again you will want to do at least coats.
5. Remove the tape and let the board completely dry.
6. Purchase any kind of cute screw in hooks to hang your jewelry. I used something similar to the hook pictured below but mine were painted white. I used 5 hooks and measure to space them out evenly across the board.
7. Apply your command picture hanging strips and attach wherever you want. I used three strips since I will be using this piece to hold heavier necklaces.
