jewelry display stand revisited

[doogloose.livejournal.com]

i made another jewelry stand. here's how i did it:

i took an old picture frame i had, it was a good big wood one (16x20 I think). I painted it with some metallic paint, same as the one i posted before, and then I used a staple gun to staple some black plastic mesh (from the hardware store) to the back of it. Then, also with the staple gun (my new best friend), I attached some dark blue velvety fabric. Then I put some card backing in behind the right hand side (so the thumb tacks would have something to go into), and used thumb tacks to hang the necklaces and bracelets.

I'm really happy with the result, I think it makes my stuff look much more professional.
