DIY JEWELRY FRAME

I've been seeing quite a few awesome jewelry racks on Etsy & Pinterest lately that have inspired me to make my own. This project was extremely easy to put together and I'm super happy with the way it turned out. The thrifted picture frame was only $3 and household items were used to do the rest. (Please excuse the iphone picture quality)
MATERIALS:
1. Goodwill picture frame
2. Fabric
3. Hot glue
4. Metal hooks
5. Spray paint (optional)

DIRECTIONS:
1. Use pliers to bend back the metal clasps on the backside of the picture frame and remove the glass/cardboard/etc.
2. Spray paint the frame if you want it in a specific color. (I used a nice wood frame so I didn't have to)
3. Wrap the cardboard piece in fabric and hot glue it in place.
4. Insert the covered cardboard back into the frame and close the metal clasps.
5. Arrange and hot glue the metal hooks onto the fabric side.
6. I added a gold bow at the top for decoration.
7. You're ready to hang your jewelry!
I made this one on Christmas day so luckily there were many pretty ribbons lying around the house. Try this project out with textured or decorated frames. I'll be incorporating sequins & glitter into the next one.
Happy crafting!
