DIY Necklace Organizer

Make this adorable rustic necklace holder in 3 simple steps!

1- Find a good sized piece of wood. I was lucky enough to have spare wood from my family's outdoor fire pit.
2-Sand and paint. When sanding, don't sand the edges. Grab a nail and hammer and chisel at the ends to make it look rustic. After sanding down the wood, paint the wood in a good color. I used a cream interior wall paint. If using interior wall paint, it won't chip of later.
3- Put nails into the wood. Make sure not to put the nails all the way through the wood, or the nails will scratch the wall behind it. A cuter touch wood be to get old door knobs or buttons instead of nails. I personally liked the rustic feel of the nails.

After that, hang it up! Along with all those necklaces you have laying around! :)
