What girl doesn’t love
a necklace to match every outfit (or almost every outfit)? As my collection of
necklaces has grown I had to find somewhere to hang them while being easy to
access those mornings I’m flying through my closet to get ready for work. To
remedy this problem I decided to create this necklace hanger using a cabinet
door and drawer pulls.
This is how the project looked before.
I started by adding two coats of Martha Stewart Beetle Black. The stencil is also from the Martha Stewart collection using the Metallic Sterling paint. This is how it looked after completing these two steps.
It seemed
to need something else and with the black paint I lost the pretty details of
the cabinet door so I decided to add a line of the metallic paint around the
edge to add more detail.
I purchased
drawer pulls from Hobby Lobby to use as the hanger for my necklaces. When
purchasing these make sure the back of the pull is not too long for the
thickness of the wood you are using or it will not lay flat after you hang it.
After looking at the plain black pulls I decided they needed a little more
detail as well. I decided to add the metallic paint but immediately wiped the
paint off so it would only remain in the details of the pull instead of them
being completely metallic.

Once the
paint has dried, determine where you want to place your drawer pulls and drill
holes. Attach your desired hanging accessory to the back of the necklace hanger
and there you have it a decorative and accessible way to hang all the necklaces
you have made or purchased.
