This is an earring and necklace holder I made earlier this year. I had seen both of them on Pinterest and decided to give them a try. For the necklace holder I picked various knobs from Hobby Lobby and found a spare board in the garage. I was lucky enough to find a few of the knobs on clearance. I cut the board to the length I wanted it and then marked the spacing of the holes. I drilled the holes for the screws, then inserted the knobs. The screws on the knobs were too long, so I marked where I wanted to cut them and then took them out of the board and then cut them off with my Dremel. I turned the board over and used a boring bit to make an indentation in the back so the nut for the screw didn't stick out. I wanted the board to lay flat on the wall. I then painted the board. I put two hangers on the back and put the knobs back on and it was ready to hang. I have enjoyed using it. For the earring holder: You can see I took this picture before I got all my earrings on it. I only use it to put my earrings with hooks. It makes it so much easier to find what you are looking for. I found a frame I liked at Goodwill and took the glass and photo out. I painted it to match the necklace hanger. I cut the wire to the shape of the frame( For this step I used wire cutters and wore gloves.) I glued the edge of wire to the back of the frame with E-6000. The frame already had a hanger, so as soon as it was dry it was ready to hang. Thanks for checking it out.
