Jewelry



Ceiling tiles made a great bulletin board...

Someone gave me a box of new ceiling tiles along with a bunch of other things that I stashed away for future possibilities...I'd been completely involved with making my jewelry at the time and in dire need of a place to put the sets without damaging them. I had a made a cardboard stand to display and keep them but it soon grew too small. Once I had those tiles though...I knew exactly what to do...I hung them all on the wall (just a couple of nails into the dry wall, my new craft room needed painting anyway so I wasn't worried about the holes) side by side and proceeded to hang all of my stuff...I also needed something the necklaces could hang on without loosing their shape (I was using straight pins) so I made display gadgets with plastic creamer containers cut in pieces. I cut and bent tabs at the edges to keep them from slipping off . It all turned out so well, I had to share!

 Thought I'd break out my little Easter sets...They turned out so cute, I had to share! The rabbit faces are made using pine cone petals, the other 2 are were naturals for the pistachio shells...(the basket is a bottle top with plastic netting you find on veggies)

 I wore the Egg bunch to the store one day and a little girl stopped and asked me where I got it from..I was so happy to see that someone appreciated my craft!

Let me know what ya thnik of the designs...

Something for Spring and summer...

Or maybe just to wear with jeans...

For the most part, I used pinecone petals and yarn (cords) to make the jewelry...such fun!
Hope you liked...
