I have quite a few ear piercings and that means I have quite a few sets of earrings. The only things is they were everywhere! I could never find a good matching pair. I would get stuck wearing the same pair over and over. But that is no fun. I have been looking to buy an earring holder but in my findings they have been rather expensive for my budget. I made one instead! It turned out great plus I organized my earrings and was able to throw away a bunch of pairs that were old and from many years ago.
I found this frame for $2 at some weird "Everything is almost $1" store. The frame was plastic and had a full cardboard backing on it. Using a straight edge I cut out the center part. Shown in the picture below.
I also got some old screen that my boyfriend had laying around that he used to replace the screen door on his porch. You can normally find this stuff at any hardware store and should be able to buy it by the foot.
This is the piece I cut out. What I had left would fit and be covered by the frame. I needed this piece to secure the screen.
I used a staple gun with some of the smallest staples I could fine to secure the screen place. I know it sounds to be a little much but my regular stapler was not work. I did it outside on the grass and dirt so it wouldn't stick to anything. I did the corners first and made sure the screen was nice and tight. Once all the staples were in I took a hammer to knock down the backs of them which allowed them to lay flat on the card board.
I attached a ribbon to the frame to be able to hand up against my wall with a trusty 3M Hook. And below is the final product! I am in love with it and can finally start to enjoy all my earrings.
