DIY Jewelry Frame

The before, and the after – let’s chat Jewelry Frames!

Throw Back Craft Thursday!

After the wedding, I finally had some time to decompress and make something fun, non-wedding associated.

Being the Pinterest fiend that I am, I jumped at the chance to make a Jewelry Frame.

The Materials were easy to come by, I had purchased the frame earlier in the year (Value Village) for the wedding, and we had only used it as a prop for photos.  I debating re-spray painting the frame, but this gold was pretty fab, and hard to give up.

The before frame, and how it was used as our wedding prop!

Measuring out where the hooks would be placed

This was a fairly simple project. I found some cup hooks from Canadian Tire, measured out a one inch space on the back of the frame, and screwed them in. To be honest, screwing the hooks into the frame really freaking hurt! I ended up using pliers to help me.

Ah, pretty little hooks, all in a row.

I actually wasn’t anticipating having so much open space at the bottom of my frame (duh, necklaces aren’t super long). I had some gold wire, which I just went to town with wrapping the whole bottom section – randomly, nothing thought out or balanced.

I’m really happy with how it turned out! What do you think!? The gold and grey contrast so nicely, it just pops from the wall.
