Peg Board Backing
I love this project! And though the beadboard looks beautiful, if anyone has any scrap pegboard that may also be a good earring holding solution for the backing. You could even pop in a peg or two for rings. So much easy customization here! Can't wait to make one

This is beautiful, but I'm not much of a jewelry person, either. I'm thinking the addition of some shelves would turn this into an adorable spice cabinet.

Love the idea of turning this into a spice rack!
No jewellery here... except one necklace from when we visited Republic Dominican a while back. And then the kids got a hold of it... :S Oh well.
Love the idea of a spice rack with this rustic look. Definitely a project that I could handle very soon :) Thanks Ana for your plans and KellyLynn for the idea of a spicerack mod!

What finish did you use?
This looks great Ana. I love your site by the way. What finish did you use to get the grey look?

plastic canvas scraps help
For earrings with posts, I have used scraps of plastic needlepoint canvas to keep all the fronts and backs together. You could just nail the scrap to one of the crossbars so it would be easy to pull the earring and back thingy apart. The long hooks for the dangling earrings can hang on the bottom row of the canvas - I'm sure there are actual names for all these jewelry parts, but I'm not much of a girly-girl and don't know them!

Beautiful Project
You are so talented! Organizing jewelry has always been a problem for me. I've tried everything from the hanging organizer in the closet to baskets. This is such a rustic yet beautiful way to display jewelry while keeping off the dresser or closet floor!

Hanging
I love this cabinet and plan on making one this week, but I'm not sure how I should hang it. Do you suggest screwing two screws through the top support right into studs?

An outdoor jewelry cabinet?
An outdoor jewelry cabinet? Wow, you really ARE bragging!
It would work just as well inside, I guess (;) )

Next deployment project!
After the "X Console Table" I'm making this! I need to get my cheap jewelry out of the "junk box" and actually start wearing it again!

A few vaiations.
I followed the steps almost to a "T".
For step 5: I glued the ends of the top 1x2 of the door, attached both 1x2 sides and clamped them tight. Once I ensured that it was level, I used a right angle bracket and screwed that in. Then I let the glue dry and off I went. I did this becuase the 1x2 I bought had too much grain and when I screwed the pocket hole screw in, I split the wood.
Another thing is my wife has a lot of home made earrings. I used the screen from a screen door for this door. That means there are a lot more holes to hang even more.
The next time I make this I have a few variations I want to do. I want to turn the 1x2 90 degrees and make them into shelves for shot glasses. then add a glass to the door.
Another tip: ensure you 1/4" backing lays flat before you attach it. If you don't, it won't sit flat on the wall.

Just finished!
Nailed the hangers on this morning! This was a really fun project. I made it for an auction item for my daughters school fundraiser. Thanks again Ana for another awesome plan!

Yay!
Seriously, I was about to fork over $200 for one of these when it occurred to me to check your website for plans. easy to customize plan too for those of use with larger jewelry storage needs.( wait til the kids get older and you need a place for those pipe cleaner bracelets and macaroni necklaces!)
