While I haven 't had a chance to crochet for a while, I am really missing it and I can't wait to get back to it next week. But I've done some other cool things besides preparing for the fair.
I love a new project to tackle and making a jewellery display for our collaboration pieces was kind of a challenge. I wanted it to look clean and contemporary but also with a little twist.
I painted the frame, took the picture out and replaced it wit foam board.
Do you think I succeeded?I love the bended semi-transparant paper - it's so easy to hang earrings from too.
I also made new price tags from the left over transparant paper and foambord (used for making model houses). I'm so happy with the new look: clean, clear and modern. And sooo easy to make too.
Print your text on semi-transparant paper (I used 110g). Cut it out with a knife.
Measure how long the price tag is and cut the foamboard a bit longer.
To make the little cut line in the foamboard, I keep the part where I cut it out to put my ruler on. Makes cutting much easier.
Slide your knife, while holding it a bit to the side, through the foambord.
Then squeeze the paper into the foamboard.
So easy to make and good to look at. :)
looks VERY nice!

ReplyDeleteYou are the matser of making things look pro.
Beautiful! You have such a flair for good design. Thanks for sharing so generously.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and clean!
ReplyDeleteHow did you attach the bended semi-transparent paper to the board?- did you cut slits in the foam board?
I think it looks great.. very clean and doesn't distract at all from the wonderful jewelry =D
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! It looks fantastic, very professional - I'd definitely stop and take a look!
ReplyDeleteIt really does look fantastic Mitsy! Love those Barbie hands :)) Kx
ReplyDeleteIt really does look very minimal and beautiful Mitsy. I like the whole look very much. It focuses the eye on the jewelry, and the size of the printed information should draw people in to read and look more carefully. I'd be interested to know how you transport small fragile items like this to the fair.

ReplyDeleteI made something similar, are you just using pins to hang the necklaces?
ReplyDeleteI made 2 holes and slipped a piece of ribbon through the hole/the necklace/the hole and tied it on the back.
