This idea is kind of genius. It isn’t mine….so I am not calling myself genius. When I went to Haven last summer…one of my roommates Chelsea pulled out this rolled up placement. As she unrolled it…all of her long necklaces were just laying there…all untangled..and perfect. I thought…now that is a great idea. It took me this long to make one for myself….here is how I made my DIY necklace travel case…

Supplies:

• 2 pieces of fabric cut 15 by 17.
• 1 piece fusible fleece 14 by 17.
• 2 small pieces of sew on velcro (about 3 inches)
• sewing machine
• scissors

Steps:

• Iron the fusible fleece to the wrong side of your outside fabric.
• Place both fabric squares, right sides together and sew straight stitch around the whole square. Leaving an opening to allow to turn right side out.
• Turn right side out and sew seam shut. Iron flat.
• Roll up gently and mark with a pin where your velcro will be sewn (mine is about 6 inches on the outside fabric).
• Sew one velcro piece to the inside fabric on the edge (see picture above)
• Sew the other piece of velcro to the outside fabric. I sewed mine in opposite directions to allow for more wiggle room.

Thanks for such a great idea Chelsea!!
