I love old gold and gilded frames.
My master bath is filled with antique gold framed mirrors.
I have 2 ornate frames, found in a thrift store, that I had mirrors cut to fit, and put in. Those hang in my living room.
But, I do really try to keep the gilt frame theme in the bathroom!!!
Here is a quick and easy earring display I made for my bathroom.
Most of my earrings are stored in jewelry cubbies- sometime the earrings of the day are just tossed into a huge abalone shell on my counter. This frame not only solves the problem of where to put them, but also lets me see what I have,- rather than wasting time rummaging thru the cubbies looking for a certain pair. (And, believe me - I have way more than are hanging on this frame!!!)
recipe
1 gilt thrift store picture frame- no glass
1 backing- pattern/design up to you
Cut a piece of chicken wire (or 1/4 inch mesh) to fit within the frame
Put frame backing on
Hang earrings on wire
VOILA !
FINI !
Now I am ready to see all of the gold and gilded framed mirrors in your master bath! This is a really great idea for jewelry you are wearing daily and seasonally too. Love it! Lennie
ReplyDeleteThat makes a beautiful decor element in a room! Good one :) I like the mirror idea too!
ReplyDeleteHOW CREATIVE! And not only is it useful, but looks amazing hanging in a bathroom. Looks more like part of the decor instead of the clutter. LOVE your earrings!

Thanks for sharing this amazing creation,

I made something similar to that this Christmas for two of my girls - but I like yours so much better with the gold frame and the chicken wire. I used window screen for mine. The girls love it for their earrings - it turned out to be a hit :)
