DIY Jewelry Stand

It’s every girl’s nightmare. You needed to leave the house 10 minutes ago and you can’t find those stud earrings you got from that cute boutique downtown. Panic sets in and before you know it, your bedroom has blown up in a whirlwind of clothes, overturned laundry hampers, and pillow feathers. You MUST wear these earrings! Jewelry organization is a must when it comes to these moments that happen more often than not if we’re honest. And, ok, maybe my little DIY jewelry stand won’t help you get out the door any earlier (have we forgot about makeup??) but maybe, it can at least keep those little stud babies in plain sight long enough for you to run a comb through your hair. Every minute counts right??

SO! I have been wanting to make this little jewelry stand for quite some time now (mainly, I just wanted to go thrift store shopping) and I finally got around to it and I am so pleased with the results! I decided to go mis-matchy and got three different plates from the thrift store. I also already had most of the other materials at home but here’s what I used all together:

3 different sized plates(thrifted), 3 white egg cups ( I had these at home), glue (mine is called “PYTHON GLUE” make sure it bonds ceramic, or whatever you are using), q-tips and acetone (for cleaning excess residue)

I think that this would make a great gift as well! Also, what about a cake or treat stand??

better wreath

This year I had a major problem. I really wanted to make my own Christmas wreath with real tree clippings but I literally have a box of artificial wreaths in my closet. I don’t like to waste things. After getting our tree this year, I asked if I could take some clippings from the pile... Continue reading

It’s Faaaaahhl. I’m not gonna lie, I’m very transparent about my love for Fall. I don’t mess around. Pumpkins, leaves, apples and spice-I need it all. Holidays in general are just very nostalgic for me and therefore I cling to traditions like nobody’s business. As I surveyed my box full of Autumn decor I thought about... Continue reading

Cat eye

Everyone has been rocking the cat-eye and I love how everyone has their own signature wing. When just starting out though, it can be intimidating. I remember starting out with just regular pencil eyeliner and smudging it with a brush, flaring up the ends with a flick of the brush (we all learn somehow). Then I met... Continue reading
