Okay, so your jewelry collection is a total mess, tangled up in a drawer or stuffed in a box. No more frantically searching for that missing earring or swearing while trying to untangle your necklaces. Here’s an easy DIY project that’ll turn a simple Dollar Tree splatter screen into a chic jewelry holder that’ll keep everything organized and on display.

At the Dollar Tree, pick up a splatter screen with a removable center knob, a round mirror, and a little stand. If you’ve got a ton of necklaces, grab a couple packs of those clear plastic display hooks too. If you don’t want the mirror, you can just cover the hole in the center with a decorative element instead.

Grab some strong craft glue and a gold (or any color you like) spray paint from another store. You’ll also need a Phillips screwdriver, sandpaper, and some alcohol wipes to prep the surfaces before painting.

Paint and piece together a splatter screen jewelry holder

Jewelry holders get a lot of use, so make sure the paint job lasts by prepping the surfaces first. Unscrew the knob from the back of the splatter screen, then lightly sand and wipe down all the pieces you’ll be painting. Paint the screen, stand, and hooks separately before assembling everything. Warming the paint up a bit will help it flow on more smoothly.

Once the paint is dry, glue the mirror right in the center of the screen. If you don’t want a mirror, you can cover the hole with a painted round piece of wood or something similar. For hooks, place them evenly around the mirror, high enough so necklaces don’t get tangled on the tabletop.

Stick the screen in place with some glue, let it set for 24 hours, then start hanging your earrings, necklaces, and bracelets. This DIY jewelry holder is so practical and stylish – it’ll keep your whole collection organized and on display.
