All moved in and ready to go!

So my husband and I finally moved into our new house! We’re still trying to put things in the right place so I hope to have some pictures and projects for you all soon, but in the mean time I’ve thought of a few quick ideas for organization using items you already have in the house! I’ll share the first one with you now.

This one is for my necklaces. I’ve been looking for a necklace tree to hang my necklaces and keep them from getting tied up in knots. While I’ve seen a few similar to the one available at www.bedbathandbeyond.com  I can’t bring myself to spend $20 on one.

I’m sure there are some out there that are cheaper, but this one is free! Until I can convince myself to buy a necklace tree I’ve come up with an alternative: thumb tacks. Yup, thumb tacks.

 I already had them in the house and if you don’t have them you can get them for a few dollars. I put them on my closet well and alternated the heights to add some interest and this is what I ended up with:

To add a little more interest you can even put a picture frame around them.
