Jewelry Box

Okay, so here's my new jewelry box! And I love it!!!

I bought the box at Home Depot ($8)
Wood panel from Home Depot ($5)
Spray Paint from Home Depot ($4)
Door knobs from Lowe's (varying price $1-$3)
and Cement glue ($3)

Depending on how much your knobs cost, you can easily make this in under $30!

The guys at Home Depot cut my wood panel for me, all we did was hold it up on the box, mark where it needed to be cut, and they cut it- for free! 

As soon as we got home, I laid out some newspaper on our porch then spray painted one coat onto the box and panel. I let them dry overnight just to be safe.



















Drill holes for your knobs to attach through. Screw in your knobs. Make sure that your panel of wood isn't too thick (or the screws won't make it all the way through). Mine is a little more on the thin side, so some of my knobs are "loose", but that really doesn't affect much.













Glue your panel onto your box. Make sure to follow the glue's instructions. You can also nail it on if you want to. 


I used three nails to hang my box on, and added some nails on the inside for bracelets and watches! Fill your jewelry box with whatever you want! My earring holder fits perfectly inside! Click on the link to check out how to make that too. Enjoy!
