DIY time.

November 23, 2009 by Michelle Hinckley |

Estate sale frame:

Peg board from hardware store cut to size:

Can you guess where this is going yet?

Coat of white spray paint on frame:

Assortment of peg board hooks.

I didn’t like the chrome finish on these hooks and wanted to spray paint them a metallic bronze. I poked them in to the top of a shoe box lid for easy access when spraying.

Ta-da!
I attached the peg board to the back of my frame then sprayed everything white.
Next, the hooks were inserted.

A new home for my jewelry.

Found these aged, antique looking hooks at Urban Outfitters.

    great idea michelle! i think it’s fun to have jewelry on display. it’s a shame to keep it hidden in a drawer.

    I have no shame in admitting Michelle that I literally am on the phone right now to several friends telling them all they need to check out todays post! Big problem though…I’ll need to make sure I get up bright and early to find an old mirror or frame at the Thrift Stores or else they may get there before me! haha Love this idea and once again…BRILLIANT!! Keep it up, I’m countin on ya! hehe

    November 24, 2009 at 3:03 am

    i was just saying to myself… “i wish i could find a cute jewelry holder idea.”

    found it!

    so glad i found your cute blog too!

  24. Petit Elefant says

    November 24, 2009 at 7:14 am

    I am 100% copying this idea. I’ve been messing with jewelry holder ideas and yours takes the cake.

    Nicely played.

  25. Tamstyles says

    November 24, 2009 at 7:18 am

    i am jelly..i cant find one of these for anything…

  26. Deco says

    November 24, 2009 at 10:53 am

    Fabulous idea! In my spare 5 minutes of time every now and again, I create my own necklaces and have run out of space to store them. This is such an amazing idea to have them on display.

  27. Karen@StrictlySimpleStyle says

    November 24, 2009 at 1:15 pm

    I don’t know where you get your creativity, but could you sell me some? I love this idea.

  28. Scientific Housewife says

    November 24, 2009 at 1:51 pm

    You amaze me with your creativity! I would have never thought to do that! I wish you lived closer, haha.

  29. Melissa says

    November 24, 2009 at 2:23 pm

    Great idea! I am redoing a room to be my dressing room and this would be very cute in there. Going to have to try to find a bargain frame.

  30. Katherine @ Grass Stains says

    November 24, 2009 at 3:13 pm

    What a wonderful idea! I love it to pieces.

    So crazy…must be my day! I was literally envisioning this exact (kind of;) ) project early this morning for my entryway, I need to make a coat/backpack/key rack that I want to look somewhat nice since I don’t have a real ‘mudroom’, and I just happened to find your site on Better After and you show exactly how to do it!! Heading to the thrift store after kids go to school looking for a large frame. Thanks for the inspiration!!

  33. Kara says

    November 24, 2009 at 3:46 pm

    Very nice. What a great idea.

  34. Stephanie says

    November 24, 2009 at 4:15 pm

    Love it! I’ve been dying to get my hands on an antique frame and make a jewelry display, or a chalkboard..still undecided. But your little creation makes me want to make a jewelry board!

  35. carrie @ brick city love says

    November 24, 2009 at 4:26 pm

    I love this! The hooks from Urban Outfitters totally make it.

  36. Haydee says

    November 24, 2009 at 4:35 pm

    Nice! The best I’ve seen of these things. You’re the greatest.

  37. Andrea says

    November 24, 2009 at 4:36 pm

    Very, very cute! I know a certain daughter who would LOVE that!

  38. Kasey at Thrifty Little Blog says

    November 24, 2009 at 5:56 pm

    The hooks were the perfect touch~ it looks great!

  39. Sharpiegirl says

    November 24, 2009 at 8:23 pm

    I’m totally stealing this idea!

    So I must be the only gal left on the planet who hasn’t read your blog before……..just found you from the wonderful makeover post on Better After. I think I’ve found my “design twin” love your style and will definitely add you to my list of “must reads”.

    PS: Great mirror..I DIY’ed one just like it for my dining room (although I kept mine as a mirror it may end up like yours someday when I want a change).

    I’m in love! How do you come up with these things?

  44. Jody says

    November 27, 2009 at 2:57 pm

    I love it! Wow, what a great idea!! I just hung all of my jewellery on one of those cheap over the door hangers. This is beautiful. I must try it!

  45. Erin says

    December 1, 2009 at 4:48 am

    I saw this hiding in your closet when I toured your home. Such a creative idea! I wish I had a jewelery collection like that!

  46. Mr. Goodwill Hunting says

    December 5, 2009 at 2:09 pm

    Just want to let you know this is a wonderful frame. FYI: You can get these exact frames with the little ribbon thingy from…our favorite place…Hobby Lobby! They have them in all sizes. Yessiirrr…

    In my city the biggest frame is $50. I can seriously see redoing a wall gallery with these frames.

  47. Stacey @ Fun to Craft says

    December 8, 2009 at 11:37 pm

    Beautiful frame and I loved how you transformed it! I might have to do something like this for necklaces. I made one for earrings but this is a notch better!! Thanks for sharing!!

    Just brilliant. I was browsing Houzz to collect ideas for our new apartment and then realised quite a few photos are actually from you. Well done, you do have a great talent! Keep it coming!
