Picture Frame Earring and Necklace Display.

Hello again. Today we are going to talk about something very important, accessorizing. Or, the lack of it. I don’t know about you but for me out of sight is out of mind. At least that is how it was for my jewelry. Which is probably why I would wear the same two pairs of earrings everyday (they were the ones that were always out on the night stand from the night before) My solution was to get the other pairs out there and seen so they could at least have a shot at the regular rotation.

Sorry the pictures are so small and crummy. My camera was stolen and I have yet to get the money together to purchase a new one. Right now I'm using my phone-camera.

Bonus it’s also a way of decorating an otherwise blank wall.

What you’ll need:

A picture frame (The size will depend on how many pairs of earrings you'll need to hang. The one pictured is 13.5x10.5 and works great for me.)
Wire mesh (Whatever you like at the hardware store just make sure that the holes are large enough for the earrings to hang in and it’s stiff enough to hold the earrings up.
Furniture tacks (regular tacks can be used but furniture tack have a longer post and work better. Plus they aren’t very expensive at the hardware store.)
Wire cutters
Finnish nails
A hammer
A tape-measure or ruler

For earring display:
1. Turn frame over and measure the mesh so it fits exactly where the glass would go in the frame. (That way when it’s hanging on the wall there will be room between the mesh and the wall for the earring posts to go.) You can use a tape-measure or just eyeball it.
2. Use the wire cutters to cut the mesh to size.
3. Place the mesh in the frame and use the small finnish nails to nail it into place.

Optional necklace hooks:
1. On the bottom-front of the frame measure where you want to hooks to go. To keep the left and right sides balanced start from the outside and work you way inward toward the center of the frame spacing the tacks apx. 1 to 1.5 inches apart.

And that, as they say, is that. Pretty simple.
