I’m working in my bedroom this week. I love the sanctuary feel that my Love Letter on the Wall brings but I hate the feeling of chaos that the disorganization of the rest of the room brings. I’m remedying that this week!
My jewelry was hanging on this little hanger that my son bought me last year…it’s cute and I appreciate it because it is from him but it is not practical for my jewelry. My bracelets and earrings were buried in this, my bedroom junk drawer.
Are you seeing how desperate my need was of my organizational challenge!!?? Don’t forget to check out the previous 10 week’s posts in the right sidebar to see the progress made so far.
Anywhoo, I was eyeballing this piece of pegboard in the garage and knew that it wanted me to use it for something…so I put two and two together and got busy.
I used this piece of pegboard, cut off the nasty parts and then cut it in half. I spray painted it with my paint and primer in one. Next, I took two of these plastic baskets that were left after my linen closet makeover and spray painted those as well.
My Better Half built a little frame so the peg board would stick out from the wall enough for the pegs to go in and then hung it up for me.
He was even nice enough to share some of his pegs with me and so I can return the package I initially bought for this project. So, this didn’t cost me a cent…I was able to use stuff I had on hand…{LOVE} it!
I can arrange the pegs anyway I like to hang my necklaces and bracelets and I put my earrings in the baskets at the bottom.
Very nicely done!
What a great idea! Gotta love pegboard!
Carrie dear, that is awesome!! I store mine on an old insert for the old type screen doors… it had glass, but some were busted… so I put screen in place of the glass. Some are staped in all the way around from the back, others are just stapled to top… and put hooks around it to store my necklaces. 😀 (But my hubs has decided his hats and belts look better on some lol) Oh wellll, he atleast don’t mind it being on the wall 🙂
I love yours!! Can’t wait to see your room all finished! You got me excited!!
That is an awesome idea!! Love it!
I currently have a link party going and would love for you to share this and anything else you would like!

I have been considering making a big one of these for a craft show this summer. I need mine to sit on a table though so i will have to change it up a bit. Thanks for sharing.
I just started a Spring Battle of the Cookers and Crafters contest at Bacon Time. There are some great prizes, please link up any Spring posts you write for a chance to win.
Love your pegboards! I have a lot of pegboards at my house too:)
That is a handy way to hang your jewelry and have the earrings below. I have been using a couple mechanic's nuts and bolts type of organizer. It has several drawers that I have labeled for earrings by color – gold, silver,red, orange, light blue, blue, green, etc. Then rings, bracelets, needs repair, watches. The only thing I need is a better system for hanging necklaces inside the cabinet
Try gluing inexpensive felt to the bottom of those baskets to keep earrings from clumping together!!!
