I like this “on the fly” idea!

I find that mesh screens stretched over wood frames are great for displaying earrings. You can spray paint the mesh and wood trim in colors you like that will set off your products. Attach an easel-like post in back with a hinge to stand them up. You could even attach cup hooks to the back to connect a weight to help keep them from blowing over.

Thanks Rena, and Maxine – good idea! I am going to have slots cut in wood planks, top and bottom, which will be fitted within a frame which will orient the earrings in a vertical position. The planks will be much thinner than the 2 inches the boards in picture are (huge weight savings). I don’t have the tools, but I will design the fixtures and hire someone to make them.

Nice brainstorming and use of what was at hand. I’m thinking if you had time and access to an adjustable table saw, an angled slot down the length of your boards would allow the cards to stand up and stay put.

“Necessity is the Mother of Invention”, and you did a great job coming up with a way to keep your earrings in place. I love that you didn’t let the short deadline prevent you from doing the show – you just created a display solution and went for it! Good work, Terrie, and it sounds like you’ll be poised for success with your shows this Winter!
