Necklace rack

I came back from our trip to Virginia in December having decided I needed somewhere to hang my necklaces. My mom has a cool repurposed tie rack (or was it a belt rack?) in her closet for all her necklaces, and my sister used a place on the wall in her room. I knew I could come up with something better than draping my necklaces haphazardly over my bedside table lamp. :) I found a piece of scrap wood we had left over from adding more supports to Nate's bed, and I used some of my leftover quilting fabric and Mod Podge. I just nailed in some regular nails since I didn't mind the vintage/shabby look, and I used two extra-long nails for the ones that went all the way through to the wall studs. Now it's a new favorite place in our room!

Great Job, I LOVE the fabric choices. I've been thinking I need more hooks for mine (I have them on an over the door robe holder) I might have to steal this idea for myself!!!

Steal away! I would be flattered. :)
