MORE Artful Ways of Hanging Jewelry

Ekta's tailor dummy.
Putting necklaces around a dummy's neck is a nice idea, too! Check out Ekta's dummy above, and Diane's bedroom, below (thanks, xojy!).

I also love Emily Ballard's idea, seen on AT. Says Emily "And the necklace idea came from both Pottery Barn/Domino, I made them with small boards covered in foam and then with linen". See for yourself how nice the outcome is:

Artful Ways of Hanging Jewelry

photo Hygge & West.
Hello,
You may, just like me, have gathered quite a few pieces of jewelry in your life, whether family heirlooms or more modern twists on body adornment, and so are now looking for artful ways to display it. And it has to be practical, too! I have thus picked up a few inspirational photos for you and me.

The first picture I found via the always inspiring decor8 blog, and it features a small nook by Christiana Coop's bedside. The hangers are by her own company, Hygge and West. Read more about it here.

The second picture I found is Meredith's Brooklyn bathroom (I had a crush on her whole abode before)
My personal project will be to paint a framed cork board I have in a pale blue with a icy white frame (a bit like in Lotta's home, below), then add hooks from Emery and Co for hanging necklaces and bracelets.

Small items will then go in plates I'll make myself, since I'm taking up ceramic classes. How about you?
