Happy Monday! I
hope you had a great weekend! Ours
was spent getting several rooms in our house organized which is not always the
most fun way to pass the time but always feels great when it is all
complete. We focused on the
garage, laundry room and our Master closet.
One thing I specifically focused on was getting my jewelry
organized. In my dream closet I
will have glass drawers with lights but for now a budget-friendly project will
do! I have done this project
before using cup hooks and dowel rods and it just wasn’t working for me. Not only was it a pain in the neck to
get to most of the pieces, but also the dowels would slip and fall all of the
time causing a large pile of jewelry mess on the closet floor. And you know it always happened when I was
running out the door so I never had time to clean that tangled mess up!
So I decided to try something new and a little more
creative. I bought some cork board
and small wood slats.
I wanted the background to be a little more fun but not
overloaded with pattern or color.
So I decided to paint the cork board in a classic black and white stripe
and the wood slats black with small gold dots.
Then I added wooden pushpins and gold nails to hang my
necklaces and bracelets on.
What a difference!!
Everything is so easy to get to now and I love the way the jewelry looks
on the black and white backdrop.
It’s such a great addition to the closet and for less than $20 it’s easy
on the pocketbook too! And now I have another thing checked off my list!
