I Can’t Stop Making Earrings

My Booth

I was afraid of not having enough jewelry, but I filled up one table pretty well.

Earring Gift Box

Match box covered in scrapbook paper and edged in tape. The drawer is painted black and a brad has been attached on the front. An ornament hanger can be hooked through the brad and the box hung on the tree.

Earring Displays

I’m gearing up for my show this weekend, and I’ve created some new earring displays. I went to Goodwill and picked up a bunch of frames for $2 each. I filled each with fiberglass screen and put the glass behind it for stability. I love the way my earrings are featured in this manner. I had also bought a tall silver candle holder ealier in the year that is perfect for an earring display.

Been Busy

Frantic actually. I found these glass mosaic tiles to wire wrap. I thought they would be pretty on organza ribbon.

These are flat back marbles with collage paper.  I’ll give the customer the option of cords.

Here’s the 50 pairs of earrings I made yesterday, plus a few more I made earlier.
