Materials: Rationell Variera Pot Lid Organizer (only required item) Description: We looked at the Rationell Variera Pot Lid Organizer at IKEA and really fell in love with the steel pegs. My fiancee had been thinking about her not remembering every necklace, bracelet, set of earrings, etc that she has, so she decided it would be great if we could use those pegs to make a display for her jewelry. Since we’re always browsing the “as-is” section of the store for different items (I built a wonderful office table for two out of a headboard from there – maybe a future Ikea hack article?) we got a wonderful piece of wood there for $1 (I think it was a shelf or something like that). We went to Lowes and bought 14 screws that fit the pegs and were about 2 – 3 inches long (just make sure it goes completely through the thick part of the wood with more than enough for the pegs to grab onto on the other side and provide adequate support for whatever it is you are going to be displaying) and a drill bit that was a tad bit bigger than the screw (that way the screw will just fall into place, not actually screw into the wood)
