Different Ways to Make a Jewelry Tree

There is definitely a jewelry tree stand ready to bring your favorite sets to life. Whether you display it in your bedroom, in a boutique, or anywhere else in your home, this organizer is just as perfect for solid gold or silver jewelry as it is for the costume pieces we adore. It’s THE must-have piece to showcase all your necklaces, earrings, rings, pearls, and the rest of your royal collection. Ready to take on the challenge of crafting a personalized jewelry stand, and looking for the perfect tutorial to create a display that will sit proudly on your dresser? You've come to the right place.

There are plenty of ways to craft a fabulous jewelry tree. You can make it from metal or wood, as well as cardboard, polymer clay, plastic, or even copper. It all depends on the look you want and the type of jewelry you plan to hang. To safely hold your most precious treasures, you'll need a sturdy base to avoid any spills. 

How to Make an Easy Jewelry Tree?

The simplest and fastest way to make a wooden jewelry tree at home is undoubtedly this one. Let's start by getting a vase or base to hold the body of the tree. You'll need a fairly slender vase with a height that balances nicely with the branches you plan to use. Once you've chosen your base, you'll need to find some small tree branches of a suitable size. Use pruners to cut small branches to the length you prefer, depending on the jewelry sets you'll be hanging. Once your branches are neatly trimmed and stripped of unnecessary leaves, clean them thoroughly to remove dirt and prep them for painting.

Now, spray paint them in your favorite shade, then arrange all the branches in the vase. Ideally, they should stick out naturally from the vase so they can safely and intuitively hold all your favorite jewelry.

And next? Well, you're all done. A total breeze, right?

 Isn't this the perfect display for your unique jewelry? Store your heavier pieces, like necklaces, long pendants, and bangles on the sturdiest branches near the trunk. Earrings can be hung in pairs at the tips of the branches. The coolest part? This kind of jewelry organizer can evolve right along with you. You can easily move it around to an armoire or a shelf, or give it a fresh coat of paint whenever you're ready for a decor refresh.

Make a Driftwood Jewelry Tree

It takes a little more effort, but anything is possible when you put your mind to it, right? This jewelry tree stand is sure to win you over and will be perfect for keeping your accessories, rings, studs, and more organized. Driftwood will be the star of your project. It will require a little foraging in the woods—or perhaps by the sea—though you can also buy driftwood online from specialty craft shops. Once you have it, you can choose to paint it or keep its charming natural look. 

To make sure your jewelry tree is sturdy, you'll need to find a base. Step 1 is to create using all your small pieces of driftwood. You'll need to screw them together to hold them in place, so this DIY tutorial requires a little handiness. It can look like a tree, but it doesn't have to—have fun and make something you love that reflects your style! Next, drill a hole in the base and screw in your assembled tree to ensure it stays nice and stable.

How to Make a Metal Jewelry Tree?

Now, this is THE jewelry organizer for DIY lovers. You'll need a metal sheet, markers, a hacksaw, a file, a drill, and drill bits designed for metal. If this tool list sounds a bit intimidating, don't panic—it looks harder than it actually is! First, browse the internet for jewelry tree styles that inspire you. Once you've found your dream jewelry organizer, simply print the outline onto a sheet of paper. Cut out the paper shape to keep only your tree template.

The real DIY fun begins: 

• Take the metal sheet and trace the outline of your jewelry display with a marker using your template. 
• Carefully cut out the metal sheet following your outline with a hacksaw.
• File down your cut piece to eliminate any risk of scratches and achieve clean, smooth edges. 
• Create notches to hang your jewelry using a drill and suitable drill bits.
• Drill several holes along the branches wherever you like. You'll easily be able to hang earrings, as well as bracelets, pendants, and other gems from your jewelry collection.
• Gently bend the base of the tree using a vise so it stands firmly upright and remains completely stable. 
• Apply a coat of suitable paint to prevent the metal from oxidizing. 

Now it's time to fully enjoy the masterpiece you just created. Statement rings, signets, studs, hoops, bangles, and long necklaces will all be beautifully displayed and kept safe on your gorgeous jewelry stand, made by you! How amazing is that?
