Organization fun!!!


I'm about 34 weeks now and nesting has hit full force!  My brain has SO many things it wants to do...unfortunately I can't keep up but I can get little projects done.  One of the projects is jewelry organization.  I'm not much of a jewelry girl but I do have some and was using a jewelry tree for my necklaces & bracelets.  It worked ok but took up space on the dresser and just looked cluttered.  I've been eyeballing these frames turned jewelry organizers for awhile and today I FINALLY made mine!

All I did was get a frame at Hobby Lobby (I could have found one at the thrift store and painted it but I just don't have the energy or time to go treasure hunting right now).  Thankfully I had my handy 40% off coupon for my frame!!  Then I got some quilting batting & some muslin...I just got 1/2 a yard and I have a bunch leftover...I'm thinking Christmas gifts!!!  I measured and predrilled my little holes for the hooks, hot glued the batting & muslin down, then screwed in the hooks.  Viola!  A beautiful necklace holder that doesn't take up any dresser space!!  (and a sad tid bit...we've lived in our house for almost 6 years and this is the first thing I've hung on that wall!)
