Approximate Time: 3 hours.
Collect your supplies. See picture #1.
Decide how wide and tall you want it to be. Mine is approximately 12 inches tall. 6 1/2 inches wide on the bottom and the top is 5 inches wide.
Cut your pieces with a saw. My dowel was 3/8 inch round x 2 1/2 inches long for the ring pegs. The center dowel was about 9 1/2 inches long.
Drill a hole the size of the center dowel in the center of the bottom piece. Also, drill a hole the size of the dowel in the top piece on the underneath of the wood. Drill 2 holes in the bottom piece on either side of the hole for the center dowel. See picture #2.
Sand all pieces. Sand the corners and edges so they are not sharp.
Glue the dowels in their drilled holes using wood glue. Hammer if it's a tight fit.
Paint several coats. See picture #3
Measure and mark where the hooks will go. I put 2 rows and alternated the rows so necklaces can hang without tangling. Screw the hooks in tightly.
Glue the felt on the bottom with fabric glue.
