Kayla's Jewelry Board

I've had this project in my head for quite a while. I've been wanting to make a board for my daughter to hang all her nice jewelry. It usually sits in a drawer in the bathroom and gets all tangled up and caught in hair ties and other stuff. And she forgets what she has. She really enjoys wearing jewelry and I thought this would be a good place to keep it all nice and neat, no tangles. When I saw these cork bulletin boards at Michael's right around back to school time, I grabbed one immediately. And finally completed it!


I painted the outside edge with crackle medium and purple acrylic paint to match her room (it's very purple).


I used papers and chipboard embellies from the Pixielicious line by Cosmo Cricket. I love all the purples in this paper. And so many fun chipboard embellies, I love that more companies have chipboard to match their papers.



And one big flower in the corner!


She has been wearing her jewelry more and it's not tangled. And I love that! Hope you are having a great week so far...thanks for stopping by!

  11. So cute - I was planning on making something similar for Kendall using the framed window screen (for the earrings to poke through) but I like this idea better - you can hang all kinds of stuff with the pins. So cute.
