| Garden trellis--and perhaps a craft show jewelry display--from Reader's Digest |
OK, smart reader that you are, you have deduced from the photo that I am not offering up jewelry tutes this week. I have craft shows on my mind, because I'll be doing one shortly before Thanksgiving. I spotted the above--a garden trellis--on Pinterest recently, and my first thought was that it would make an awesome jewelry display. Add a base, a few more horizontal bars...
Given that I have only about a month to prepare for the craft show, and I need to concentrate on making stuff, this is not going get done before mid-November. But for anyone interested, the instructions are here. They are not very detailed. It's really a supplies list and some tips, such as flattening and soldering the pipes together if you can't find four-way fittings, and mention of a glue that works on copper. But I'm filing it away for the future.
In the same vein is this display, which the pinner is using as a bathroom organizer but I think would make a great table display for jewelry.
Instructions are here (do you really need them?), and the tutorial shows some versions made with ceramic plates.
Oh Pinterest, you know I can't quit you.
both ideas are fantastic! my mom has several of those tiered dessert serving dishes (to squeeze as many desserts on the table as possible)...i never thought of using those til reading this. i am going to have to ask to borrow them the next time i do shows. thanks for the tips!
ReplyDeleteThe problem with the tiered dishes is that you do not get a good view of what is on the middle and bottom plate. It also assumes you have enough inventory to stock it three deep.
ReplyDeleteI am always keeping my eyes open for anything to help with bracelet displays.
These are both great ideas! I haven't even thought of selling anything but will keep them in mind for if or when I do. I, too, can become Pinterest obsessed. Oy!
