A ear could become a statement piece, the shape is the same as the question mark. My out of the box thinking also, the explanation mark and so forth. A few small holes and a safety pin attached for hanging it would spark my interest. Best wishes just have fun with it.

You can center the neck area of your piece around the neck – perhaps with a touch of clear tape? and drape it down the display, holding it in place at the waste with small twist-ties. You could also consider folding this in half at the waist to fit into boxes. Just a thought – I love all the creative ideas!

You could change the figure to be larger, have a waist, etc…and make it just right for your harnesses. You could use any type suede, fabric, or leather to cover with a good spray adhesive.

I think they would look really cool. Maybe do a smaller version for the packaging. For lack of anything better and until I can get to a packaging wholesaler, I’ve been buying clear cello candy/grab bags at the dollar store for packaging my feather earrings. I think these might be wide and tall enough to use them for your packaged jewellery. Photocopy the same images as your displays and glue them to firmer card stock, cut notches so that you can centre the main part on the cardboard where it will stay in place and slide them into the cello bags.

The best alternative I’ve found so far is in a bulk food store (Bulk Barn) where candy-making and baking supplies are sold. There are white quarter pound candy boxes that work not too badly with tissue paper in them. You could check out somewhere like that.
