This easy to make cork board necklace holder will help keep your necklaces and jewelry organized!
You will need: A Bulletin Board Paint Wood Decor for the board (I felt like mine was a little boring.) Hot Glue Gun or E6000 glue A Stencil (This is optional)
First paint your board. Don't use too much water over the stencil if it's printed on paper. If you do, and the paper starts to get soggy, just let it dry for a few minutes and you can use it again! I painted two, then had to wait for the paper to dry a bit.
Here is the stencil I used. I found some downloadable images and played around with one until I liked it. Feel free to copy and paste mine! Cutting the stencil takes out more time than just about anything else.. if you use a stencil make sure you cut it out with an exacto blade, and print it on nice thick paper.
I painted the sides teal, and went over it again with white and lighter teal. I was going for the "Shabby Chic" look so I used my old brush and dry brushed it letting it be sloppy and messy. Once the first coat is dry you can go over just the edges for the shabby chic look. I thought that the frame was a bit boring, so I added some decor from hobby lobby. I painted the undercoat teal and went over it lightly with a lighter shade.
Then I glued them to the sides.
Then the board part is done!
Next I screwed in some hooks, and made some cute thumb tacks by hot gluing thumbtacks to the back of vintage buttons.
An that's it! Hang up your necklaces!
