d.i.y. glitter tray


Lately we’ve been obsessing over pretty new ways to display our prettiest things (blame it on Pinterest). Why hide our favorite baubles away in jewelry boxes when we can artfully showcase them on a glittery tray? In a D.I.Y. with all the sparkle and none of the messy, glitter-for-days aftermath, we’ll show you how to craft your very own glitter jewelry tray in a few simple steps.


What You’ll Need: A plastic/lucite tray, Duck glitter tape, a marker, scissors, and parchment paper


Step 1: Place the tray on the parchment paper and trace around the bottom of it.


Step 2: Flip the parchment paper over and tape strips of the glitter tape within the traced area.


Step 3: Flip the parchment paper over again (glitter side down) and cut within the traced lines.


Step 4: Working carefully, peel one strip of glitter tape at a time off of the parchment paper and stick it to the bottom of the tray. Try to get each strip as close as possible to the other without overlapping them.

Then, fill it with your favorite jewels!

d.i.y. jewelry organizer


My closet is overflowing with stuff. And while there's no way to curtail my shopping habit, I do need some way to organize it all! A trip to HomeGoods fixed things right up.

I spotted a pant hanger and thought it would be the best new display for my frequently-worn jewels! I decided to dress it up a bit with some fabric so it would match my room (HomeGoods to the rescue once again - I bought a pair of pillowcases and saved a trip to the fabric store!)

Here's what you'll need to D.I.Y.:



So what do you think?! Would you give this a try?!
Have any other organizing tips - do share!
