  I love the pleats. It seems like everything I make these days has pleats on it somewhere, they are just so wonderful.

  those are great!

  i hang my earings from a lamp shade on my bathroom counter….the shade is wood-hatched material that makes little square holes= perfect for hanging earings. and necklaces: i bought a little double tiered silver plater at a thrift store not too long ago and keep them there. not as sweet as hanging them, but it works. :]

  i have a pegboard and hang my delicate necklaces in a row cause the chains always get tangled. by the way, when i saw the first picture of the french press and the corningware coffee cup, I smiled–my mother had the same chinaware pattern when she came to the US in the 70′s and we used it all through our childhood. thanks for the memory jog!

  i hang my necklaces from nifty looking nails or knobs on the wall. i put my rings in a little glass bowl and i also have a vintage perfume plate that i scatter my jewelry about on. :)

  i’ve been meaning to use some of the random hooks i’ve purchased from anthro over the years but haven’t used…. but i think i need to paint before i go nailing away in the walls

  i DO use one of the coat rack hooks (the flat ones that just have 4 hooks in a row) for my scarves and vintage hats

  i keep my earrings on an ice tray in a drawer.
  :) they are handy and you can put an ice tray over another one.

  I took a pretty frame, took out the glass, hot glued burlap on the inside and walah! – earring storage!

  loving those necklace stands!!!!
  i like the repurosed frame idea for jewelry storage. what i did was purchase magnetic spice tins from ikea and color coded my earring and i have them stuck on a magnetic sheet in my closet. I used hooks to hang my necklaces, here are pictures…http://lafamiliamejia.blogspot.com/2009/05/laid-off-liberation-pt-2.html

  Cool necklace stands, but I’m excited about your coffee cup! lol. My grandparents had that same design ages ago and every time I see one I think of them. Great memories of drinking “coffee” (mainly milk and a little coffee) with my grandma when I was a little one. :)

  I’ve used small of pieces metal piping and joints from the hardware store to make stands for jewelry in my shop. It has a nice sturdy industrial feel.

  I use two small plaques with antlers mounted to them to hang my jewelry off of. I found the antlers from an online estate sale for super cheap, and spray painted the bases and plaques matte white. I hang necklaces, bracelets, and rings from the various points.

  I love those necklace stands – the pleats are such a thoughtful touch.

  I adore your blog! The visual displays are so inspiring.

  I am actually hoping to apply for a visual display/design job & was wondering (like the poster before me) if I might be able to correspond with you via email about the requirements & experience for such a position. I’d love to know first hand experiences & advice.

  my email is attached to this post but just in case it’s crossxmyxhooks@gmail.com

  I can’t wait to continue looking through you blog!
