I Love Necklaces...

so much so, that my necklace tree doesn't hold all of my necklaces. I came up with an idea (or more like I modified a stollen idea). I use to visit teach a girl who had made something similar for her earrings.

Here's what I did...
I bought an unfinished 11x14 frame & inserted (actually my dad did this step for me) 2 strips of wood. Next came the spray paint. Then, I inserted cup hooks (which required the use of a power tool to begin the holes; yes, I did this part). Lastly, I covered a piece of cardboard with fabric thanks to spray adhesive. I think
it turned out great!

Now that it's finished, I need to make another one, because only half of my necklaces fit on the current one. Maybe, I should stop buying necklaces, but they are so much fun to wear. And they never make you look fat!
