How to Weigh Paper Mache Bust Displays

Image
Paper Mache Displays work better when they are weighted down!   Let me show you how. I've never liked the velvet displays as they are hard to pack and show up lint, especially when photographing jewelry on them.  During my search for something better, I came across these macrame bust displays which are a heck of a lot better to pack for shows.  The nestle into each other tightly vs. being so bulky.  The only drawback was that they were light and could easily topple over.  My dear husband (DH) came up with a way to weight them down and I've been using them for over a year now and they work perfectly (for me anyway). Here's a quick video on weighing them down.

Treasure hunting in Cloverdale British Columbia

Image
After the "Wire Wrapping 101" workshop yesterday,  we ventured down to 176th Street in Cloverdale to do a little treasure hunting.   We looked at several of the new shops and I've found a few items at "Timeless Treasures". These will be perfect for incorporating into my jewelry display setups. Awesome gate door but decided it would be too heavy to lug around. Otherwise it would have worked to hang necklaces or add shelves. Great little shelving unit.  It'll give a little height to the table. These are awesome.  Tall and slim so won't take up much room at all. A blast from the past. Once I spray the wood and metal black it should look fantastic. It came with the mirror shelves.
