We (my daughters and I) once considered hanging our ear-rings on a twig prodded into a vase. But that would occupy a lot of space.
I bought pill boxes for them (ummm...the ear-rings, not my daughters). But they could only be used for studs, and smaller ear-rings.
The last attempt was hanging them on sushi mats - which was ok, but removing them and hanging them back was a little difficult as the bamboo sticks were tied too tightly together.
Then I discovered Pinterest! If you do not know what Pinterest is, I will caution you. It's highly addictive!
So in my stash of junk, I had this wooden frame. I had been keeping it for a long time, not knowing what I'd do with it....
1. I painted the frame the palest of greys.
2. I distressed it by sanding it at various places to give it a used-look.
3. I nailed some plastic mesh to the back of the frame.
4. Then I hung our ear-rings...
Yes, those are spider-web complete-with-spider ear-rings. And yes, I do wear them. My daughter bought them, not me! (Actually, I would've bought them, too, heh heh.) Umm...penguin ear-rings are just below them. The cheetah (?) print ear-rings were given me for my birthday last year as Esther, my cute nurse-friend thought I should wear them when she heard we were making a trip to Botswana. Crazy, lovable Esther.
(Psst. At this point of time, Rhoda is going
to be totally distracted looking at all the ear-rings and not notice my
awesome ear-ring holder and the effort I took to make it.)
Hmmm...might as well make another one, with this broken frame I picked up somewhere..this one is for my daughter to use in her studio....ooo...talking about that, check out the super, crazy Hollywood-style mirror she made!
