Make inexpensive jewelry display panels

Here's a cheap easy DIY for displaying jewelry. This is my favorite kind of DIY - easy and free. Plus, it recycles product packaging.

Supplies:
Small flat cardboard boxes or squares of styrofoam. (I used two packaging inserts from a laptop box.)
Scrap fabric or two scarves
Push pins
Scrap posterboard

Tools:
Office stapler
Spray adhesive (optional)
Paper cutter (optional)
 

Stretch the fabric as you staple 

Cut the fabric a few inches wider than your boxes.

Staple the fabric on the back beginning in the middle of each side, pulling the fabric tight across the front of the box.
 

Working from the center of each side, staple toward each corner, pulling the fabric tight and toward the corner.

Staple from the center of each side and move toward corner

Fold the corners and staple them.

Cover back with posterboard

 Tidy up the back with a piece of posterboard attached with spray adhesive or a set of push pins.
