Hey guys – I’m back with another project 2 days in a row! (And what’s even more awesome is all the test results from my OB appointment last week came back normal! HIGH FIVE!)
This week 10 of us created DIY projects using supplies from Lowe’s in unexpected ways. Everyone had some great ideas which you can see at the end of this post. 🙂
I’ve had a storage problem for a while now, and I really wanted to solve it with this project. My bracelets and watches were starting to get out of control – sure I already have pretty hooks on the wall for my necklaces (read that about that project HERE):
But I didn’t want to hang a ton more hooks for my other pretties.
I ended up buying these wood table legs at Lowe’s:
I measured, predrilled holes, and screwed the smaller legs into the larger leg (which I used upside down). These are perfect for wide bracelets or multiple strands.
I also bought a decorative finial for the top, because this piece needs to be functional and pretty!
I super glued a wooden base on the bottom for stability and painted everything. First, a coat of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in French Linen and then I brushed over it with Pure White.
Finally I added a few decorative drawer pulls in the center section and some basic white hooks near the top.
And I’m happy to say that now I actually have room for more bracelets! Looks like it’s time to go shopping….. 😉
Finally my storage problem is solved and I am in love with my new DIY bracelet stand!
I wish you a fabulous weekend! xo
