I personally don't own a ton of jewelry so I wanted to create something that would be able to hold the little that I have in one place. I gathered up some scrap wood I had on hand and went to work! As with all DIY's, you can customize this project to fit your exact needs for your jewelry and space.

STEP 1
Cuts will vary for this project for each person's space. Below are the cuts I made that will fit the wall I'd like to hang it up on. 1 x 3 cut down into (2) 24 inch pieces & (2) 13 1/2 inch pieces, 5/8 dowel is cut down to (5) 2 3/8 inch pieces & (1) 15 inch piece and 1 x 2 cut down to (2) 3 inch pieces.
STEP 2
Clamp the backing of your jewelry holder down and cut off one corner.
STEP 3
Glue (4) 1 x 3 together to create the frame of the jewelry holder.
STEP 4
Use Corner Cat Finish Sander to clean up any excess glue or bumps/bruises that may have occurred while working on it thus far.
STEP 5
Clamp to secure and check right angles with speed square.
STEP 6
I decided to use 5 small dowel pieces to holder my necklaces but feel free to add more or less to customize it to your needs. I added a dab of glue to hold in place.
STEP 7
Then shot a pin nail into the back of the jewelry holder through each dowel to ensure it can hold the weight.
STEP 8
On the open corner, staple wire piece to cover entire corner to hang earrings off of.
STEP 9
With 3/4 drill bit, drill one hole into each 1 x 2 piece.
STEP 10
Glue and pin nail one into each bottom corner.
STEP 11
Shimmy 15 inch dowel piece in and voila! A place for your belts.
STEP 12
Everyone's jewelry holder needs are different! I hope this inspires you to create something unique and one of a kind for your space. I decided to leave it unfinished as wood accents fill up this room so it works perfectly. I created two simple boxes of out of scrap wood and glue! Perfect for my tiny rings. Happy DIY'ing!
