SENIOR LADY: TOO MANY EARRINGS HOLDER!

I love large earrings and include them 

in my jewelry collection. I have hoop 

earrings in several colors. I was able 

to find an online  site that sold Retro

 70's, 2-3 inch hoop earrings in 

different colors. I was so happy

 to have a 12 count set of the 

hoops shipped  to me last year. 

 There are large teardrop earrings 

made from in wood, gold, and silver 

also in my jewelry box.  Searching

 through my jewelry box for the 

earrings to match my outfits became 

a daily hassle. 

I searched online for a  solution 

for displaying my earrings. There

we're not many jewelry displays 

that hung on the wall. 

I watched  several craft videos 

and finally found an answer to

my problem. A few ladies used

dollar store picture frames to 

display their jewelry.  I thought

this was a great idea. I could

recycle larger picture frames

from thrift stores, if a  larger 

jewelry display was needed.

Some crafters used foam 

sheets, embroidery cloth,

 and mesh kitchen drawer 

liners in the frame. Light

blue was the color I needed.

My bedroom and bathroom 

are painted light blue. The

jewelry frames will be hung

 on the wall like a painting. 

Light blue items was not 

 stocked at  stores I shopped at. 

The kitchen section at my local

 dollar store had  light blue

microfiber pot holders.

The pot holders had mesh  

liners sewn on the back. My 

earrings with the French

hook could be hung on

the mesh liner.

PICTURE FRAME EARRING HOLDER

NEED:

8x11 Picture Frame

2 pack microfiber

pot holders 

Colored mini paper clips

TOOLS:

Scissors 

Glue gun & glue sticks 

Ruler

Remove the black panel, ad sheet,

and glass panel from the frame. 

Lay picture frame face down.

Lay white cardboard border

face down in the frame. Use

scissors to cut pot holder 

fabric to fit the 8x11 frame. 

The glass panel can be used

 as a guide to measure pot 

holder fabric, if ruler not 

available. 

The mesh needs to show in

 the front of the frame. The

colored  fabric will be visible 

behind the mesh. 

The picture frame earring holder 

is ready to be hung up. The

hooks on the back of the

 earrings can be placed in the 

mesh holes.  Place pairs of

earrings in desired arrangement.

I have hoop earrings with French clips, 

hinged backs, and push backs. I added

 mini light blue paper clips in the mesh

 holes. Open up the paper clips. One end

 goes in the mesh holes and the other 

end holds the hoop area of the earrings.

 

 

The picture frame earring holders

make great gifts for birthdays and 

Christmas. This gift can be created 

for less than five dollars!!
