Craftgrrl - Where Crafters Unite!

[Haha, two posts in a row. The Olympics is good for my productivity.] 

So I'll explain this one a bit:It was driving me crazy that my earrings had no place to be.
I had them on this plastic Choxie truffle box but it kept falling over, which was annoying.
I saw people dressing up corkboards with quilt batting and fabric on HGTV (a new semi-obsession of mine) but not having any cork tiles handy and really not wanting to spend any money, I decided to use what I had to make a jewelry hanger. 
Whoo-hoo scavenger hunt!

I found light cardboard from an old granola bar box, "S"-shaped packing peanuts, and a glue gun.
I also have like ten pounds of lace, so there was plenty of that to use.
Then I scoured my fabrics and chose this:


I linked the packing peanuts in rows and glued them to the cardboard.
Then I pulled a layer of cotton batting and the fabric over the whole thing and glued it down as well.
I fit the square in an old puzzle box (with a cover for traveling).

Didn't cost me a dime and I love how it looks.
