Organizing My Jewelery with a New Borard

For months I have been trying to finish this jewelery board to organize my necklaces, finally I finished it!

The jewelery board is made from an old frame I had. I covered it with white burlap.

Under the burlap is a piece of poster board, then wrapped in batting,then covered with the burlap.

I made some burlap flowers and added some lace trims.

Make sure that the batting and burlap are secured tight. I used extra long pins to hang my jewels.

I still need to finish hanging all my jewelery on it,I hope it all fits!

So, the finished product, hanging in my room! I hope you liked it!

I hope everyone out there has a beautiful weekend! And remember find beauty in the simple life! Happy Creating, Junking & Decorating!!!

This is my desk,With must haves and pretties all around.

This is one of my Junk Babies I made. She holds all my vintage keys. Her name is "Fancy Faith".

Here are some of my doll heads that I use to make my "Junk Babies", I've sold them at a few shows!

And my motto"Lets Play"

Here are some views looking in!

My husband put together this hutch top on a vanity bottom to hold lots of supplies!

More cubbies in the hutch....

I love these satin glove boxes, they hold laces and buttons.

This cabinet holds more supplies and creative goodness!

And cute vintage table I use for storage on bottom and to assemble jewelery & paper goods!

Paper ready to use! Journals anyone??

Doll shelf, sooooo sweet!!

Here's another shelf by my desk.

Shelves are filled with storage jars.

I have this black file cabinet next to my table. It holds ribbons,charolettes & seam binding.

OK, are you ready for the BLING??? I keep my bling in silver trays,muffin tins,satin boxes,& jars. Remember, someone once said "you create what you see" that's why I keep everything out, where I can see it!

More sparkle! :)

Suitcases for storage? Who knew? They're the best & vintage too!

All my vintage photos stored in here.

This one is filled with old pattern tissue paper.

I know that storage is always a problem so, just be creative and use whatever you have. The more unique the better.
