Do you have an old grater? Give it a new life! Make an extraordinary jewellery holder for your earrings! OK, it really is a bit unusual but it is also a little bit romantic. And really simple... So you will need old grater, paint (I have used white), paint thinner, brush and some lace. Step 1 Remove the rust from the grater. There are different "rust removal" products on the market. But you can use baking soda. Make a paste from baking soda and water. The suspension shall be pasty enough to adhere to the metal. Once the paste is put on wait for several minutes and scrub it off. Step 2 Paint the grater (you may need to use paint thinner to dilute the paint depending on the paint type). Wait the paint to dry. Then paint again and wait the grater to dry. Follow the paint manifacturer instructions! Step 3 Tie a bow from the lace so that you will make it more vintage. As easy as child's play! More Jewellery Holder Ideas.

Frame your jewellery! As I never have space for my jewellery i have decided to make an interesting jewellery holder. You shall find an old wooden frame (as I don't have old frames I bought one), paint in colors that suits your room, glue gun, some steel pegs and lace. Step 1 Remove the back of the frame (if it has one). Step 2 Paint the frame in desired color. Wait the paint to dry - follow the manifacturer instructions. Then paint it again amd wait it to dry. Step 3 After the frame is readyuse a glue gun to stick the lace to the frame - imagine your own design. I have placed the lace once vertically and once horizontally. But you can put two horizontal lines etc. You may use the lace to hang you earrings on it. Step 4 Put the steel pins on the top of the frame. Good work! Now you can hang you have your own jewellery holder! Enjoy! More Jewellery Holder Ideas.
