I am nursing a sprained back, (at least that's what the chiropractor said) so I've been laying low all week.
Hoping it gets back to normal quickly, because I have a holiday show coming up, and I can't really afford to lay low much longer!

A couple weeks ago, I got fed up with my jewelry board.
It wasn't working for me anymore.
My necklaces have gotten bigger, heavier, and longer than a few years ago, and the simple little straight pins that were holding them on there just wasn't working.
I had more and more of them laying around the bedroom and closet until I could find a solution.

It's not fancy.
It's totally practical.
And it is working great for me!
Using part of our closet's finish work, I marked off where the screws would go from the hooks. I drilled pilot holes, and then screwed in each bracket.
Now I have a super sturdy, organized way to see and store my necklaces.
If I need to add more hooks in the future (I'm pretty sure I will!)
I plan on adding in some smaller cup hooks between the larger ones here.
A simple way to add more storage for everyday stuff!

Very pretty! I love seeing jewelry on display.. it's a little glimpse into one's personality. Love that your used "octopus" hooks too:)
Simple and functional! Love it!
Pretty and functional - and they are spread apart, too, so they won't tangle as easily!
Really super idea. I like it very much.

That was a great idea. Now you can see what all you have and it looks neat and tidy. I am fast approaching the need to do something better with mine - I love jewelry!
Saw your comment on Bella Dreams today mentioning that you too had seen her comment left on another's blog.... I see that you live in Salem, OR and just want to play the name game:
Any chance you know the Skillern Family?
Now I'll go back and read this post! :-)
