DIY Jewelry Holder
I have been on the search for a jewelry armoire for quite some time. I wanted something that served as not only a holder, but a display that could become part of my decor. I had a few simple rules: 1. If I was going to spend money on piece of furniture, it needed to be worth it. None of this $400 for a “wood” jewelry armoire that my fingernail would dent. 2. I wanted it be simple (no flower appliques painted on the side) and 3. Didn’t cost me an arm and a leg. Needless to say, I didn’t find it. So what better Idea than to make my own inspired from Pinterest? At a final cost of $48.00, I believe this piece will be one that I keep on display.
FYI: I highly recommend using a fabric like burlap that has a very loose construction. This makes it easiest to apply the knob holes whether you choose to make them before or after you staple the fabric.
{Supplies: Wood Panel (I purchased from Home Depot), Choice of fabric (I chose burlap from my local fabric store), variety of knobs (purchased at Hobby Lobby on sale), pair of scissors, stable gun, staples, screws, and pack of wall hangers}
{Cut your fabric to the size of your wood panel. Remember to leave at least 3 extra inches for stapling to the back of the panel}
{Pull tightly and begin to staple around the entire border}
{Spread knobs in desired position and measure to make sure they are center/spread equally from each other. Because I chose burlap fabric, I was able to make little holes with my pencil onto the wood so the boyfriend could drill exactly where I wanted them.}
{Screw knobs onto the wood plank and hang jewelry}
Sincerely,
THE GIRL IN THE YELLOW CAB
