- Take the frame outdoors or to a well-ventilated area and give it a quick coat of spray paint. You can use any color you like or coordinate with the paint of your bathroom or dressing area. Touch up as needed.
- To create the back of the jewelry organizer, cut a section of burlap around one inch larger in size. You can pick up burlap at your local fabric store for a few dollars.

- Now fold over the edges, and use a staple gun to secure the burlap to the back of the frame.
