The Necklace Stand, diy



Part of my wardrobe inventory is  knowing what I have, but what is the point of having it and keeping it if I can't find it or see it?? I decided after the gold post, I needed to separate out my jewelry and find proper and pretty storage for it all. I keep my bracelets, bangles and rings on a hand stand, and my earrings in a crystal dish, but my necklaces have been neglected since I got rid of the cork board I once kept them on. I concocted a practically free project, and executed it super quickly earlier this week!

The Gold

I am slowly doing inventory of my wardrobe, which seems to me a seasonal task over the past couple years; in the process I decided to test out my self made mini photo studio (soon to me made life size!)  click 'read more' to see more of my gold accessories and studio results (tutorial on how to make your own coming soon!)

the huayruro






These beautiful red seeds are from the Huayruro tree, found in the Peruvian rainforest. While in Peru last year I fell in love with their red orange color and the handcrafted jewelry local artisans used them for. I was told that these seeds were a symbol of good luck and brought fortune by keeping evil at bay. Many Peruvians would keep one on their person, such as a wallet. And I am sure all have been given one at some point or another. Above are a few jewelry pieces I made while there with and assortment of the large, medium and small sized huayruro seeds, jabon (or jaboncillo) seeds, and wooden beads.
