Make something outta nothing
when one is a poor student, one comes up with crative ideas to still be organized.
Here I need to say I DO NOT ADVERTISE SMOKING
But if you have friends or such who smoke, have them keep the flip top packs for you.

  • How to make a necklace organizer. Necklace Rack - Step 1
    Step 1

    Once you have a few flip top cigarett packs together start by taking off the see-through wrapper and take out the foil. Also you will remove that weird flap thing.

    Now you tear it on both sides until you get about 3cm from the bottom (about 1 1/3 inches).

    Now you flip in those two sides inside the box. Then you flip the front in as well. kinda squish it so you have a bit of room inside. Not too hard though or it will tear.

    Now you flip the back in just about 1cm. (Kinda like when you fold paper to make a fan. I hope I can make this understandable :/ )

    Now you flip the remainder back over the back of the pack.
    (Almost done folding, I promise!)

    Now you flip the top over the now tiny box. You can bend it a bit to make it more flexible. If it cracks in the back just fix it with a bit of tape.

    Tada! You are now done with the hard part. :)Now you rinse and repeat with however many you wish to put on your picked out poster board/construction paper etc. You can duct tape around the pack or use construction paper around it if you don't like the look or regular packs. Just an idea.

    All that's left now is to arrange it however you wish and glue it. Regular glue, super glue depending on how many necklaces you are planning to hang from it. For 1 or 2 on each regular glue normally works.

    Mine is just on regular construction paper, and it hangs just fine. If you want more reinforcement behind it you can glue it onto sturdy board or something. This works just fine though.
    Hang and enjoy organized necklaces :)

Great idea.
When I saw the picture I thought you used matchboxes. That would be cool too; you could store earrings in the boxes (make sure you allow them to open) and hang necklaces around them.
