Happy Day!!!
My Mom loves her earring holder. It turned out really nice, and matches her room beautifully.
Here are the pictures I promised. Sorry about the delay. Let me know what you think.
I backed the image with cardboard trimmed in black to add some depth and better frame the earrings. Also I applied a matte finish to complement the satin ribbon.
Most of the paper that makes it way into my home ends up in the compost pile or the recycling bin. Lately I have been noticing how much we receive that is non-compostable. So with my efforts to try to reuse before recycle, and my love of crafting, I took a recent ad I received and tried to make something more useful out of it.
Since it is such a beautiful day I took my project outside. Making paper beads is relaxing and quite a bit time consuming. I really like the way they turned out though.
I like the ones that I used the hemp with the most. For the others, I used an elastic string on one and a salvaged clasp with string for the other. I would like to try ones with more color next time.
