Hang-a-Round...

hahaha...



With a basic metal ring (like the ones I used to use for making dreamcatchers, a macrame ring), some yarn, some spraypaint, and some of these little candy cane shaped plastic link doohickey things:

...which came in a pack of totally useless little Christmas themed link doohickey things like these snowman ones:

If you want to try this at home... (lol) - All I did was glue (E-6000) the candy cane hooks all around the ring. Let that dry, then wrap the whole deal with yarn for extra-stay-power. Took it out back and spray painted the hell out of it! It was red first, but the red didn't take to the plastic doohickeys very well. So I used bumper chrome! And it hangs with a bit of chain held around it by a clip. ^_^

Mine's for displaying stuff at shows, but it'd be a nifty hanger for one's own jewelry as well, as a display/storage idea. :)



I am *endlessly* proud of this silly thing... XD
