Earthly Expressions Jewelry Display

Earthly Expressions' nature-inspired jewelry booth
I've only started selling jewelry and doing crafts shows this past Fall. With little money to spend on fancy displays, I needed to get creative.
Since my jewelry is nature inspired, I thought the outdoors would be a good place to get ideas.
So my children and I ventured out to our favorite beach (on Jekyll Island, Georgia) and began to look for some beautiful driftwood. It was not as easy as I thought since most of the wood that looks like it is just lying there, is really still attached to the tree under the sand! Fortunately we got very lucky and found two beautiful logs.
The great thing about driftwood is that it's soft enough push tacks into, which makes hanging and adjusting jewelry so easy.
I then searched for items around my home.
A large vase with bendable plastic branches was excellent for hanging pendants on chains.
A large candle holder made a great earring and bracelet display (and it looks like a dream catcher.)
Large shells are great as well.
I also just started using inexpensive glass vases (that I plan to fill with sand) to hang my shorter necklaces or wrap around twice with my longer ones.
Another display I have been using is large frames covered with material (everything from the craft store, with the coupon of course) and placing on a table easel.
I keep forgetting to photograph my booth and I needed a photo recently for a show I was applying to, so these photos are taken in my driveway. Oh well, gotta do what ya gotta do!
Hope you find some of these ideas useful. Happy beading!
