Earring Holder

     I have long searched for a cheap, easy to use earring holder. I would always see plastic or metal ones with tiny holes, but I figured I wouldn't have the attention span to actually get a pair of earrings through the holes. Then it hit me, make your own! I did just that, steps are shown below.

  1. Find some thick ribbon and tulle
  2. Tie them both into big, beautiful bows, with the tulle a little smaller
  3. Hot glue the knots together, I hand stitched some parts together for extra strength 
  4. All done!
The holes in the tulle make it perfect for an earring holder, and it's easy to insert the earrings in! 




Here is my finished product!
