For a clean edge, fold your overlapping piece over to give you a tidy hem. Plan your placement so that the seam will be along what we’ll now call the back of your stand. Cut to that size.Īpply some spray adhesive to the stem, let it get tacky (just a couple of seconds) and then tightly wrap your fabric around the stem. Wrap your fabric around the stem of your DIY jewelry holder with a ½” overlap.
JEWELRY STANDS DIY CRACK
An exacto knife can clean up the edges and a hammer can flatten your remaining PVC pieces until they “fit”.įill in the crack around your stem with some JB Weld glue and let set until completely dry. It didn’t work out perfectly, but that’s okay. I used a 7/8″ spade bit on my drill and attempted to drill a hole in the centre of each of the 8″ PVC pieces. My little granite sample is about an inch thick, so the overall height of my DIY jewelry holder will be just over 12″. I started by cutting my PVC pipe down into four pieces (per above) 2 at 8″ long, 1 at 11″ long and the last one at 5″ long. I didn’t want to invest any more money into fittings for the pipes, so I worked with what I had. Which leads me to today’s post: a DIY jewelry holder (just in time for Mother’s Day) You know I’m not going to throw it out – I’m sure there are a million-and-one PVC projects that I can use these for… Not only did my Pinterest project not work (not a first by any means), and I’m out a fair bit of money, but now I’m stuck with 84 feet of PVC piping that I don’t know what to do with. It’s funny now, but I was PISSED that afternoon. In my mind “collapsible” meant that I could put it up and take it down whenever I needed it. In hindsight it would have made for a funny video, but then it would have to have an R rating because I was pretty inventive with some of my cursing. Thank goodness because for the half hour leading up to her arrival I was swearing up a storm in the garage trying to get the pipes to fit together without the other end popping out. This is my friend Helena who came by just as I’d started to wrap it.
JEWELRY STANDS DIY HOW TO
I invested about $150 in PVC pipe and elbows and followed a Pinterest tutorial on how to make a collapsible paint tent… If you don’t follow me on Facebook or Instagram (which you really should) then you wouldn’t have seen my DIY spray paint tent I made the other week.
