Personalized Earrings

I love earrings.  They’re a simple way to bring color up towards your face.  The problem with buying earrings from a store as apposed to making my own earrings is that everyone has them.  I like my earrings to be a little unique.  I found these rose earrings at Walmart, and fell in love with them.  But anyone can have them. Changing them up a bit makes them uniquely yours.

Christmas Picture Earrings

I was asked to make some earrings for a little girl’s Christmas pictures.  She wanted something that would show up & sparkle, but she didn’t know what color her little girl’s dress was going to be.

I thought about it for awhile, and my mind immediately went to Swarovski crystals.  Swarovski crystals sparkle like nothing else, and I know that although simple, they will show up in the pictures.  I also gave her a bonus pair of earrings.  Purple is her favorite color, and she’s the star of their family.

Organizing Earrings

I thought I’d show you how I organize my earrings.  I’ve seen them organized online using framed screens, egg cartons, and even storing them on trays, but that drives me nuts.  All it takes is bumping it once & you have a huge mess that can take hours to reorganize.  And I really don’t have all that much room to store my earrings like that.  If you read my post on Makeup Storage, you know that I like to have all of things close together, so that when I’m getting ready, I don’t have to run all over the place.  Once my make-up is on, and my hair is done, the last things I put on are my earrings & watch, and I’m out the door.  It’s like a one stop shop.

How do you take all of this and store it in a section that’s 5″ wide, 7″ deep, and 6″ high?

Once I thought it out, it was actually easy.
