I love dangly earrings and have a few pairs now, but I always seem to be searching for them…
So, I decided to make an earring holder.
I fished out an old frame from the bottom of my closet and a needlework crafting sheet and went to work…
I cut the crafting sheet to the right size, then cut two pieces of Batting (so that there is a space between the crafting sheet and the back of the frame) and then piece of white fabric and the layered them together. Fabric, sheet, batting, and then the back of the frame.
Being as it was a bit thicker than what the frame was made for, I then nailed the back to keep everything in place…
It took about 30min in all to make it, making it up as I went along to figure out what worked best and now I have a perfect place to put my earrings and I love the way it looks in my room above my dresser. Now to find the rest of my earrings!
(the pendant is an early mother’s day gift for myself that I found while visiting Annie)
btw…I usually don’t like fake flowers, but the pink flower is something Xavier bought for me when he went to Disney on Ice with my Mom when he was 4. I smile each time I see it 🙂
What a fantastic idea!!!! I am going to make one too 🙂 Thanks!
It turned out so well and your earrings looks so good on it! Saw another pair I think you’d like the other day…
