Upcycled jewelry display idea!

After scouring the interwebs for ideas for something I could use as 
an economical jewelry display and seeing tons of amazing ideas
and wandering through the thrift shops as I so often do.... 

I came across these two old wall mount spoon racks!!
The small one was $1.00 and the larger one $2.00

. 

I didnt think to to take a picture after I bought them but before this
photo was taken, as you can see, I broke off the two
layers of "spoon holders". 
The reason that I did that was so that I can use the larger one
for necklaces and the smaller one for earrings.

I went down to the hardware store and chose a Marigold color spray paint 
as I think it would perfectly contrast with the 
hand blackened brass that I use for my jewelry and 
also if I choose to use this as a display at a market or craft fair
it will be nice, big and bright from afar!

The smaller one I chose a beautiful Robin's Egg blue spray paint, it really is pretty!



Sorry about the horrid lighting....! It's quite stormy here.
I added the pretty paper that I decoupaged on since it was quite
obvious that I had ripped off those two layers of "spoon rack".
I may decorate it further but I wont decide that until I see it full.

Such springtime colors! And my tablecloth for when I vend is a nice springy 
green! Yay for colorful pretty things!
I am quite low on stock at the moment jewelry wise, so they arent full at the moment...
But they will be soon!! (Thanks to my oh-so-wonderful customers!)
I just put a LARGE order in for 
beads and findings - I love shopping for bits and bobs!

Do you have any hand made, upcycled or creative jewelry displays?
What do you use to display your pieces? I would love to see!

Grand Opening / 800 Fan Celebration Sale!!

 
Wow! I am super excited to find 800 Facebook fans on my Tumblestone Facebook page when I woke up a couple of days ago!  In celebration of this AND the fact that I have just opened Tumblestone's online StorEnvy shop, ALL jewelry, mosaic/mixed media art photo frames & mirrors are 25% off!  (If you purchase off of the actual Tumblestone online store, be sure to use the code DANDYGRANDY at checkout to get the 25% off!)
I already had this post here.... Below the last one! I dont know where it dissapeared to.. So I'm doing a short repost because I like the picture!

  Through my Tumblestone Facebook page, there are quite a few things that you cant find in the StorEnvy shop....
such as previously sold items, custom sewing jobs I have made for customers and MANY pillows ....
I make goofy ones, such as big moustache shaped to trendy and beautiful upcycled cable knit sweater pillows!
  I dont have them up for sale on StorEnvy, because I really am not sure about shipping charges yet. However, after seeing them, if you MUST have one (they are top sellers for me!), I will find out what the shipping charge would be for you and we can work something out that way!
I have shipped them before. Unfortunately Canada doesnt have flat rate like the US, so its not as easy to guesstimate shipping charges, especially for such an item such as pillows and stuffed animals and monsters!

  I am always up for custom orders as well, if there is something you want, or have in mind but you dont see it anywhere within the Tumblestone universe - just ask!!
I have made countless custom items and get custom orders all the time.
I love the strange requests I get.... it's fun! I'm so easygoing, I'm open to make anything that you have in mind if it is possible to make in my skill set!!

  So go check out that awesome Facebook page o' mine! There's also a link on the right upper side of the blog as well! Also - do you have a Facebook fan page for your business? Leave it here in the comments and I will go "like" yours in return!

Cheers!

Tumblestone's StorEnvy shop NOW OPEN!!

  I am super stoked to announce the grand opening of Tumblestone's new StorEnvy shop, which has now been added to the StorEnvy Marketplace!!

  As you can see up there in the tabs (pages) there is a new one that says "Shop Tumblestone!"
That link will magically transport you directly to the new shop over in the StorEnvy Marketplace.

  In celebration of the Grand Opening of Tumblestone's new online store AND the fact that I woke up the other day to a whopping 800 fans on Facebook, I have put ~ALL~ items in the shop on sale for 25% off!! The 25% off will automatically be taken off of the price in the checkout using the code DANDYGRANDY Woooooot! Details are in the post below.

  I'm not the best with code, so for the time being I am using the standard store template, but once I teach myself and have a lil extra time ~ Im confident that the store is gonna look AMAZING!


 ~ So please, go have a look and tell me what you think! What's your favorite item? I would love your feedback!~
