I love these Jewelry Frames being done around in blogland lately. But I wanted something I could set on my dresser instead of hanging on the wall.
So I decided to make one with a pedestal.
So I decided to make one with a pedestal.
Here's what I did...
1) You need a frame, some type of pedestal and a base
This pedestal I got at a home improvement store in the stair railing isle. The base I got a craft store. The frame I just got at the DI.
2) Connect the pedestal to the base using any type of wood glue. (Not shown: my pedestal had a screw at the bottom so I just drilled a hole in the center of the base with a drill bit then twisted the pedestal on).
3) A few coats of spray paint
4) You can add some nails if you want to hang some bracelets. (It's a little short for necklaces at the bottom). I also added a nail at each of the top corners to hang some longer necklaces.
5) Spray paint some more as needed
6) Let it dry
7) Optional: if your pedestal is thicker and your frame is thinner you can drill into the pedestal to hold the frame. This will also give it better support.

Make it just wide enough and deep enough for your frame to fit nice and snug.
8) You will now need some type of wire screen mesh. This is just aluminum window screening.
9) Cut out to fit your frame with scissors.
10) Place in frame as snug as you can get. Trim as needed until it's not so flimsy.
11) Hot glue edges and place screen in frame.
12) You can sand or distress the edges if you like.
13) Using wood glue (or any type of glue that's good for wood) glue the frame to the pedestal and let dry.
Just a quick share on where I like to get some supplies: Harbor Freight Tools is a great and inexpensive place to buy tools, especially for small home projects.
Perfect for crafting!
14) Now go hang your jewelry!

Love this creative idea! Thanks for sharing with my newbie party.
ReplyDeleteI love the stand idea. I made one of these for my daughter many years ago--more than 10. Of course back then I used plastic canvas in place of the screen. I do like the screen better. LOL.
ReplyDeleteCoolness!! Love it!! I need a better way to organize my jewelry and maybe for a display on my jewelry table lol!
