Instructions

  1. Small 108411 2f2015 04 08 034602 p1080264

    Find a piece of gauze, lace, or otherwise porous fabric with plenty of room for earring hooks to be hooked and removed without great effort. A test run to make sure the earring hooks don’t snag on the surface before you cut the fabric is a good idea.

  2. Small 108411 2f2015 04 08 034610 p1080269

    Cut the fabric into a square, rectangle, triangle, whatever shape you’d like. My “shape” pretends to be a square, but I sort of like the a-symmetrical result.

  3. Small 108411 2f2015 04 08 034619 p1080270

    Using push-pins, affix the fabric to the wall. Depending on the shape, reinforce the corners with extra push pins. Once it’s sturdy, simply start adding earrings.

    As you add them, pay attention to whether or not you need more reinforcement. Also, place studded earrings near the sides and top for easy access, and bigger, more intricate earrings near the bottom so they won’t block your view of the rest.

    Like so!

    Errm, sorry about that rogue hair that thinks it’s an earring.

    Voila! A simple way to keep your earrings on display for quick accessorization, sans-clutter. Next time I’ll show you a quick way to clean up your vanity (or wherever you do your hair/makeup in the morning).
