DIY Bracelet Display
If you're tired of your bracelets getting tangled in your jewelry box, you can make a decorative hanging display to keep them organized. Your bracelets, as well as the display itself, can double as a decoration to hang on your wall or set up on your dresser. Since the display requires a picture frame, you may already have one in your home that you are willing to use for storing your bracelets. Find the rest of the supplies you need in a craft supply store.

1
Remove the back of a picture frame and discard the glass. The frame should be at least 8-by-10 inches so you have plenty of room to display different bracelets.
-
2
Place the frame over a sheet of cork that is at least 1/8-inch-thick. Trace around the edge of the window of the frame with a pencil to get the right size and shape for the cork. Cut the right size cork along the traced line with a utility knife.

Put the cardboard backing back on the frame. Apply hot glue near the corners of the window of the frame on the front of the board and around the middle. Press the cork you cut on the front of the board into the window of the frame. Wait 20 minutes for the glue to harden.

4
Stick decorative thumbtacks through the cork along the top of the window of the frame and space them apart by at least 1/2 inch. Measure about three or four inches down from the first line of thumbtacks and stick another line of thumbtacks through the cork. Continue until you reach the bottom of the cork.

5
Stand your frame up on your dresser or store display, or hang it on the wall for easy access to the bracelets.
