Frame it all!

I used to have for many years all my earings and necklesses in a box... It was a bit of a mess each time I wanted to get something out of the box. The other downside was also that I would oversee some really really nice stuff I'd have in the very bottom corner of the box. 


A few months ago I was at a friend's place and she had some really nice frames in her bathroom where all her earings would be presented. I really liked the idea and decided to try this out. Since I love colours a lot it became a very original "painting". I know that some people do not have earings so I tested out how to use the same frames with other things. With mini pegs I could fix small pics or even my necklesses.

The frames on the picture are meant to be christmas presents for this year but I definitely need to make myself one soon too! It really doesn't take much time. I probably took 30 minutes to make one frame (I was lucky since I found the frames already painted in bright colours, so this saved me a bit of time).
