Chic Earring Display

Hi followers! 

I am going to share with you today my new earring display that I made. 

Here are the steps to making your own earring display from a picture frame:

Materials:

picture frame

wire

scrapbook paper

Tools: 

needle nose pliers

scissors

1. Start with a 8 x 10 (or which ever size you prefer) picture frame. 

(I chose off white because it goes with my new craft show table set up)

2. I took apart the picture frame and chose a piece of scrapbook paper. I cut the piece of paper to fit the inside of the picture frame. 

3. I cut three pieces of 20 gauge wire just a little longer than the length of the inside of the picture frame.

4. I took each piece of wire and laid it flat across the scrapbook paper and bent the extra wire around the edges of the paper and with my needle nose pliers pinched the wire hard to make it stay. I made three rows with the three wires.

5. I put the piece of scrapbook paper with the 3 rows of wire into the picture frame then put the back of the frame back on. Then I hung my earrings on the rows of wire. 

Ta-Da!

Preview of my Workspace!

Abby's Originals Workspace

Hi everyone!

I have always wanted my very own workspace/craftroom. I imagine when I buy my own house having a craft room just for me and decorating it the way I want. It will be my "woman cave" you could say. I am a college student so if you can imagine how much space I have had in my first two years to make my jewelry, it wasn't very much. I lived in a dorm and then a sorority with very small rooms. I was usually cramped at my school desk trying to make best use of the space I did have to create my jewelry. So.... I'm sure you can imagine how excited I was when I found out I was going to move into a giant house! I recently moved into this giant house (well... giant for a college kid) with two roommates. The house conveniently has a GUEST BEDROOM or if you are a huge crafter, you automatically think CRAFT ROOM! I am very lucky to have such awesome roommates that were totally excited about me using a small section of the guest bedroom as my workspace. So I am here today to give you a sneak peak on where all the Abby's Originals magic happens. I am a proud renter (ha) of my own craft room!
