Hey, the truth is for girls, we all have jewelry-some way more than others :P.You are probably very tired with the jewelry all over and/or getting tangled.Also, I'm just redecorating my room :) .This craft can hold rings, bracelets, or necklaces but not earrings(but don't worry because I'm gonna show you how to make an earring holder in another post!))Anyways, this is what you can make! And all of this is probably free for you! You will need:
- a shoe box lid
- wooden clothespins(amount depends on how much jewelry you have)
- hot glue gun with about 2 sticks(mine is a mini glue gun)
- sharp scissors
- And any embellishments (like stickers or pictures, you probably don't want anything thick like fake flowers or you wont have room for your jewelry)
First, take your shoebox lid and start seeing where you want to put your "hooks/pegs". I had 10 which is 5 clothespins. You could divide it into a necklace area, bracelet area, and a ring area. To make your pegs, take a clothespin and twist it like in the picture separating them, you don't need the metal piece.
(sorry I don't have any pics)Take your scissors and poke holes where you want your pegs to be. Next, poke in one half of the clothespin, the flat side goes on the bottom. Also, the clothespin has bumps and one end is pointy, put the pointy end on the "wrong" side of the shoebox and stop inserting in when it locks at a bump(look at the picture if you are confused).Secure this with hot glue on the back of the box lid so you don't see it.
After you have repeated with all the pegs and are now done, you can decorate, hang jewelry, and get something sorta like this. Hope you enjoyed this project!:D
