Jewelry Board

Here's my first use of one of my fun new fabrics. I don't have anywhere to keep my jewelry. So I decided to make a board for it all. I love it! It was super easy and now I can see and find all my jewelry at a glance. I just covered a large bulletin board with fabric, using hot glue. I also added thin 3 oz batting between the two, but I don't know why. It doesn't seem to make a difference either way. I just used clear push pins as the 'hooks', which works perfect. If you do this, I recommend nailing hangers into studs or using anchors. I didn't and mine fell once already. It's not really heavy, but the nails that came with it are just short and fall out.
