Something New...Something Old


So I'm getting ready for Oddmall http://www.oddmall.info/ and aside from creating quite a few new pieces I have been also focusing on creating a booth/table that 'fits' my jewelry. I already know that the black necklace displays do not compliment brass jewelry. The beautiful earthy vintage finish becomes dull and lost against the black velvet. I have also discovered that without dimension, depth and layers on your table, everything kind of lines up like good little soldiers. Not what I want! So changes needed to be made. I can't replace what I have all at once, so I decided to get creative.

To start off with I went to an estate sale a block from my house and found some wonderful treasures. One of my findings was this amazing vintage wooden jewelry box that I added a ring display to. I also found an old tin pail that someone decoupaged cutouts of old postcards. Perfect for my business cards!





I ordered couple of mannequin style jewelry stand displays which I love and added some beautiful cream colored fabric to drape over the black tablecloth. So I think I have what I need....for now.




Now back to making more little lovelies!

I really like the way those necklaces look on the mannequin stands. Your table will look sweet! See you Saturday at oddmall!
