DIY earring display

I made this earring display as a birthday gift for my sister in law Andrea. I'm working on one as a gift for my mom as well. I love how it turned out I think the lace is such a pretty back drop to place your earrings on. I originally wanted to do this with a bigger frame but I couldn't find one that was bigger that had thick wood for the frame like this one. But I still think it turned out good, if you'd like to make one here is how mine came together..

 First I show you how I made the flowers, I used felt & cut out petals. The amounts of petals you'll need will depend on the size of your flower. You will also need to cut a circle out of your felt to glue your petals to.


 It's kind of hard to see but there is a spot of glue on this petal you will want to pinch the sides together to make your petal.



 Then you glue The petals around your felt circle till your happy with your flower & add a gem or a button to the center of your flower & your done!


 Flower number 2 - Start with a strip of felt.

 Put hot glue along the bottom of the strip & fold the felt onto the glue.

 Then cut into your felt all along the open side that isn't glued down without going completely through.

 Then place glue along the side that isn't cut & roll! Then place a gem or button in the center & your done!

 For the Picture frame, I started with a black frame & then spray painted it white & distressed it with sand paper. Then I just simply double my lace and cut it to size and hot glued it to the back of the frame.



Here is a close up of the flowers! Hope you enjoyed this tutorial & are having a great week!
