Long Necklace Storage

Long necklace storage can be a pain.
They get tangled so easily.
My solution used to be an over the door hook rack.
It would clang EVERY. TIME. THE. DOOR. WOULD. OPEN. or CLOSE.
It was annoying (my husband hardly ever complains and he hated it!)
So I came up with a better solution.

You know these things that show up at thrift stores all the time?
These accordian peg racks:


I'm really not sure what they are supposed to be used for...
hats, clothes, towels, mugs, purses, hotpads, coats?
Anybody know?

I picked up one for $1.00 at the thrift store for my necklaces.
All I did to it was stain it to match the wood on my bed and dressers,
then I sprayed it with a clear finish
.
It was soooo easy and fast! 

Next step: Hanging it on the wall & adding necklaces:


Wanna know a secret?  This is what it really looks like after all of most of my necklaces are added...


So I have a lot of necklaces...what's a girl to do?  
At least they're not clanging!

Maybe I need to get rid of some of them.
Maybe I need another holder.
I'm just keeping it real here.
