DIY Necklace Hanger

Hey y'all! Today I am sharing with you how I made a necklace hanger. I have several necklaces (18" and smaller), and thus far I have been hanging them on a nail in my bedroom. This works for awhile until I have so many that one will fall off when I grab another.

It took me a couple of days to do this project because of painting it, but it's a pretty easy DIY.

 Materials: 
-Piece of wood in desired length, All-purpose craft paint, drawer handles (Wal-Mart, $5 for 2), D-ring mounts (Wal-Mart, $3), a drill, a screwdriver, a hammer




Instructions: 
1. Take a 17" long piece of wood (I'd recommend 18" for simplicity's sake) and paint it (I used Martha Stewart's All-Purpose paint in Blueberry). 
2. Decide/measure where to put the knobs. I ended up doing about 3-3.5" between them since there were four total. 
3. (If you aren't much for power tools, enlist someone's help here.) My husband drilled the holes, and I screwed on the knobs with the screwdriver. 
4. Use the D-ring mounts to nail onto the back for easy mounting onto the wall. 

And...wah-la! Hope you enjoyed this DIY. I hope to share more with you!

Into Your Own

This little blog has been in my head for quite some time now. As a kid, I loved to write and make up stories, and last year I had the privilege of guest blogging for The Budget Savvy Bride as I planned my wedding. My friends have suggested the idea of blogging, but honestly, I've been hesitant. However, here I am, and I'm ready to go for it. 

I'm a mid-twenties Southern lady who loves to read, stays organized, and crochets (what a grandma!). Over the past two years since I moved to North Carolina, life has been...difficult to say the least. My career has been a roller coaster ride, but I've had some great times too-like spending time with my dearest friends, bonding with my silly family, and marrying my best friend. So here's the inspiration for this blog...'Into Your Own' is about things that I love (and you do too): DIY and Pinteresting things I've attempted, book reviews, pop culture criticisms, and some advice thrown in. Coming into my own as a woman has been a unique journey so far, and I want to start sharing it with you. 

Can't wait for what's to come!
