DIY 1: Necklace Organiser

Seeing the pressure of schoolwork building and the stress finally getting to me, my father decided to take us all out to dinner. This was in an effort to help me de-stress and spend some quality time with them. I reluctantly agreed.

A big thanks to that fateful evening. After getting into my favourite jeans and the most comfortable top I owned, I realised it was worth accessorising. Boy did I spend time on searching for the right neck-piece! There were several boxes, all kept in different locations, to look in. Tiring? A little. 

Jewellery Cluttered into boxes? 

Probably not organised enough.

So, anyway, I was clearing out my room and found a cute hanger, which had probably come with a piece of clothing I had bought earlier. All of a sudden, as if out of nowhere, an idea struck me. WHY NOT MAKE A NECKLACE ORGANISER OUT OF THIS?

And, that my friends, is how the Necklace Organiser here, was born.

The Necklace Organiser

Like the way it looks? Read on, and make one for yourself. Declutter it, girl. 

REQUIREMENTS:

1. Paper Clips (Coloured ones for beautification) 
2. A hanger (Any type will do. A hanger substitute could be a rod with a small diameter with wire/thread/yarn tied at the ends)
3. A hook or a nail on a wall

Requirements

Whaaaat? That's it? 

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Gather all the stuff necessary, as mentioned above.
2. Pick out a paper clip and pull the two U-curves apart.
3. Now, insert the short U-curve over the hanger in such a way that it wraps around it. Secure it tightly. Pull the longer U-curve apart a little so it would act as a hook and make it easy for you to hang your precious neck-piece on.

Steps 2 and 3: This is how it should look like.

Securing the smaller U-curve over the hanger.

4. Now, put as many paper clips as you like, in the same way. Maintain the kind of spacing between each paper clip as your neck-piece demands.

Spacing out all the paperclips.

5. Choose a good spot for a hook, for hanging your Organiser on. You could also drill a nail into your preferred location. (I found a spot inside my cupboard, the added benefits of this location being that my Organiser could be free from the dust outside and should one of my neckpieces fall, due to some reason, it would only fall over a pile of clothes.)

Choosing a spot for my hook

You're almost there...

6. All you have to do now is to hang your light neck-pieces on the paperclip hooks, one on each (or whatever you prefer). Hang the final Organiser on to the hook/nail at your preferred spot. And, voila, you're done!

Finally.

So simple to make, and hardly takes any time! You could always beautify it further, probably, by painting the hanger or covering it with printed paper. I've left mine as it was. :)

You could also use this as a temporary Organiser, If you're a busy person and don't get the time to keep things in their places before leaving for school/work, you could hang them here. On a holiday, or on weekends, you could keep them back where they belong.
