Earring blossoms

[zillion-eyes.livejournal.com]

So, if you've picked up on it at all, I love earrings --making em, wearing em, everything! So I was trying to think of creative, pretty ways to store earrings. I tried the mesh/frame thing, but I grab my earrings too quickly and end up knocking it over, especially since it's cluttered with all of the earrings anyway. So I thought this would be neat.

Steal this idea -- Simply take some sturdy wire (green metallic, black, silver, gold, white . .really, you pick!) and curl little loops into it, in pairs. Bend the wire into whatever shape and stick them into a vase.

note: I've yet to figure out how to keep them sturdy . .I could use some ideas if you try this out. Floral foam wouldn't be pretty in a glass vase. Weights? Wrap the wires together? Not sure. Goodluck!
