If you're like me you have a LOT of earrings. Here's a little idea I came up with to display my own collection. Go to second hand shops, antique shops even the Goodwill and look for an old fashioned vanity tray. Usually they are a silver filigree style frame with a mirror in the center. People used to use them, laid flat,, on top of a dresser or countertop to set small bottles of perfume and make up on. I found a new use for them as a jewelry display stand. In this sample I removed the mirror and replaced it with clear glass so the color of the wall would show through as the background.

This will be a DIY project in many parts. Each week I'll post a step or two until we're done. Basically you need to find a chandelier, paint it, buy wire, beads, both ordinary and extraordinary, and begin decorating the entire piece.. There is some basic wire wrapping of the beads to hang them as well as beginner's French wire beaded flowers and I'm even going to show you how to make my signature beaded dragonflies and butterflies to finish the piece off.
