Practical Art - Arts, Crafts and DIY

76 Comments

This is a cheap and fun way to create a keepsake which also has the practical purpose of organising (and displaying) your costume jewellery. Never lose or have to untangle your costume jewellery ever again!

Material

1 Cheap Canvas
1 packet Thumb tacks

Method

Never untangle your costume jewellery again and display your children's artwork at the same time! Simply use some thumb tacks to pin your jewellery onto a canvas (or better still, get your kids to do it!).

Notes

The cheaper the canvas, the better it will be as the large holes allow your earrings to go through the canvas easily.

I just adore the hand and foot print art the kids make when they’re little. Such a great idea

I love anything that keeps your things organised. No more worrying about tangling up the costume jewellery.

  I love the tangle free concept too – costume jewellery tangles so easily.
