jewelry storage and display racks

two useful ideas if you have lots of accessories and want a way to organise them ikea style.

nora's chain display
nora was searching for a practical storage and display solution for her self-made earrings and necklaces and turned to ikea. here's what she did.

"what you'll need:
  • one bekvam spice rack
  • three fixerad knobs (can't find link)
  • one meter of chain (about 2 euros at hardware store)
  • some drawing pins
  • brown acrylic paint

i spent less then ten euros for this rack and as a plus i can use the otherwise useless space on the flagstones."

cheryl's jewelry rail
"i'm using the enetri shelving with this item (if you can see- i had to modify that piece of furniture since it didn't fit my stereo system, there are lifters on the shelves).
