DIY::Jewelry Tree

Several months ago, I showed off how I display my jewelry {post found here}...I got a lot of great feedback on this little jewelry tree in particular:

My friend made this tree for me, based on a jewelry tree she had made for herself.  Recently, my friend moved to China and since she knew how much I loved her tree...she decided to leave it with me.  I thought, in taking in her tree, I would show you how I put it together {though it's really not rocket science!}.  Hey...any chance to DIY, is worth sharing with all of you!  :)

 All you need is:

Pot or Bucket

Fine Sand

Branches {manzanita, willow...really, whatever you can find}

Jewelry

Fill the pot with the sand and place the branches to maximize your display space.

Place jewelry on the nooks and crannies of the branches {avoid cat's curiosity}.

I placed little trinkets to personalize it as well.

I used necklaces and earrings...still need to fill this baby out!

 Here is the finished product!

And here she is in her new home!

I'm definitely happy to proudly display my friend's jewelry tree...these particular branches give me a LOT more room to hang and display jewelry.

So...what do you think?  Will you be making a jewelry try anytime soon?
