If I go too long without doing a DIY related to jewelry organization, send help- something is wrong with me. \u00a0Good thing\u00a0today’s post confirms nothing is wrong since I’ve got yet another jewelry tray DIY to share with you guys, and it is SO. EASY. and terribly exciting for how pretty it is.<\/p>\n

Two major discoveries here. \u00a01) Crate & Barrel has these hexagon plates<\/a>\u00a0that are begging for repurposing and 2) adhesive gold mylar. \u00a0The latter is a game changer, guys. \u00a0You know I love my gold details, but this is the first time I’m entering into mirror-y gold chrome territory, all thanks to a lovely chick that works at my favorite craft store- gotta give a shout out to Artist & Craftsman Supply<\/a>. \u00a0No question it is the best craft store in the LA area because they have everything. \u00a0And, you know how places like Michaels or Joann constantly feel understaffed and you walk around wondering if anyone works there? \u00a0Not at A&C- super attentive people who will patiently listen to me\u00a0describe vague wishes for made-up supplies that I’m not even sure exist and they’ll be like oh yea we have that right over here. \u00a0So good.<\/p>\n![\"trace\"](\"http:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/trace.jpg\")
All I did was trace half of the plate onto the back of the adhesive mylar sheet with a pencil.<\/p>\n![\"cut\"](\"http:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/cut.jpg\")

It’s best done in one shot. \u00a0An air bubble got into mine, so I peeled back that section of the mylar and\u00a0smoothed it back on to be air-bubble free, but it messed with the chrome finish of the mylar just a bit. \u00a0In the photo above, you can see a little cloudiness in the gold where I had peeled back the adhesive, which is hardly anything to get bent up over, but I’m just saying- it’s better not to peel and re-stick!<\/p>\n![\"DIY](\"http:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/DIY-Mirrored-gold-hexagon-tray.jpg\")

I love it. \u00a0A lot. \u00a0This is everything that I mean by simple ideas with big impact. \u00a0And how the heck am I going to resist sticking this gold stuff onto everything? \u00a0I’ve done a lot with gold spray paint, but it doesn’t come near to achieving the shiny finish of this mylar. \u00a0What should I do with it next??<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
