Living on the Ledge

March 23, 2012

Im no Elizabeth Taylor, but I have enough jewellery to warrant special
storage concerns that cant be solved with those woefully small trees
meant to dangle baubles on.


To keep my necklaces visible, easily accessible and never tangled, I
created my own display case using a picture
ledge
from Ikea and cup
hooks
from Home Depot.

Heres how to do it:

1. Mark dots on the bottom of the picture ledge where you will place
your hooks. Create two rows the length of the ledge with each dot three
centimeters apart.

2. Use a nail and hammer to tap a small hole in the place where the hook
will be.

3. Use that hole as a guide when you hand twist the cup hook into place.
This takes a little muscle, but keep going until all hooks are in place.
Youll be able to fit 50 hooks.

4. Mount the picture ledge. Hang your necklaces from the hooks and place
bracelets and rings on the ledge above.

Mine is on the wall beside my vanity, making accessorizing so much
easier. Jaelyn Molyneux
