I'm always looking for simply ways to display my small necklace collection so I can see all of them at once and get them down easily. I came up with this simple, modern rack with pops of ombre color on the pegs as a solution. You only need some craft wood and a few other supplies.

Instructions

    Gather your supplies, You will need a long piece of wood for the back (I used balsa wood from AC Moore), dowel sawed into 1.5" pieces, strong glue that adheres wood, craft paint in a lighter and darker hue, white craft paint to mix fading colors, wood stain, cheesecloth to wipe stain on with, and paintbrushes. Go ahead and mix your fading colors.
