Look What Preacher Man Made!!

zoomed jewelry frame

It's a frame to hold my earrings! Isn't it great? I wear mostly french hook earrings and I made most of these myself. This earring holder is PERFECT! I love that I can see all of my earrings at once and that I don't have to hunt for a matching pair.

It helped the top of my dresser to go from this overflowing mess:

messy jewelry

To this:

cleaned up jewelry

And this:

How did he make it you ask?

back of jewelry frame
  1. Take a $1 garage sale wooden picture frame and cut window screen to fit it.
  2. Attach it to the back with a staple gun.
  3. Cover up the rough edge - Preacher Man glued on cut up cereal box. I suggested that in the future we could use felt.
  4. Attach a picture hanger and put it on the wall.
  5. Insert earrings!
Wouldn't this make a great gift? Especially with a pair of handmade earrings attached? You could paint the frame if you wish, but this one didn't need it.

  1. This is really a great little gift. How wonderful of him to think of your need for some organization in the jewelry department.

  2. Both functional and decorative - the best!!
    Kudos to preacher man for whipping that out. The cereal box backing is cute, I think :)
