Pallet Jewelry Rack

 
With most pallet projects, the smooth deck boards are used, but the runners are discarded.  I found a use for the runner which will give your room a rustic look and aesthetically display your jewelry.

Here is what you will need:

The runner board of a pallet (see diagram below)
 

 
 

•If the runner is really weathered, it would be wise to power wash it before you begin attaching the hardware.

Use a yard stick/meter stick to evenly mark  off the points where the drawer pulls will attach.  Use a tiny drill bit to start the holes.  

 

Screw in each drawer pull.  Flip the board over and attach the saw toothed hangers.

Retro Ladder Necklace

Here are the supplies you will need (in addition to a needle nose pliers):
 
 1.) slide the beads on about 8 eye pins, creating an "eye" at the end of each pin.

2.) attach 2 of the pins to the French hooks by reopening one end of the eye.

3.) attach the other 6 to the chain. starting at the bottom and leaving about an inch between each "rung" of the ladder.

 

Painted Bead Jewelry Set

 
I love designing fun jewelry to go with simple outfits for church and school.  Here is a jewelry set I recently made.  The beads were purchased at Hobby Lobby.  They are wooden painted beads and dented my wallet by a mere $1.99/bag.
