Organization Tip of the Day: Hang Your Necklaces on Cork Board
Photo: Carlee Scanlon Dodson
Your jewelry box is so full that your necklaces end up in a tangled pile on your dresser. Get rid of the mess–and preserve your jewelry–by hanging your necklaces on a fabric-covered cork board.
How to do it:
- Grab a cork-board, a staple gun and the fabric of your choice.
- Cut the fabric to fit the cork board and iron it, if necessary.
- Wrap the board with fabric and staple away.
- For extra flair, add a ribbon border or a nail-head trim.
Expert tip: Don’t bother shopping for fancy hooks — clear tacks will work just as well!

I bought the most amazing looking and feeling corkboard from http://www.amcork.com. They have patterns and colors of corkboard you have never seen. No need to paint or cover with fabric, which shows the pin holes anyway.
