I'm always looking for simply ways to display my small necklace collection so I can see all of them at once and get them down easily. I came up with this simple, modern rack with pops of ombre color on the pegs as a solution. You only need some craft wood and a few other supplies.

You Will Need (7 things)

  • Paintbrushes
  • Cheesecloth
  • Wood Stain
  • Craft Paint
  • Glue
  • Dowel
  • Wood

Steps (5 steps, 50 minutes)

  1. 1

    Gather your supplies, You will need a long piece of wood for the back (I used balsa wood from AC Moore), dowel sawed into 1.5" pieces, strong glue that adheres wood, craft paint in a lighter and darker hue, white craft paint to mix fading colors, wood stain, cheesecloth to wipe stain on with, and paintbrushes.

    Go ahead and mix your fading colors.

  2. 2

    Paint each of one of your pegs in one of your hues. Let dry.

  3. 3

    Apply stain to back piece and wipe on with cheesecloth. Repeat until the whole piece is stained.

  4. 4

    Line your pegs along the board where you want them and mark their places with a marker. Glue them down and let dry.

  5. 5

    When everything is dry, hang rack up. I used command strips.
