    Derrick took the kids out to run errands and gave me an afternoon to myself. This doesn't happen very often with three small kids so I decided to make something fun. A holder for my earrings! I use items that I already had on hand and love how it turned out.

    It was as simple as opening my frame, removing the glass, covering the back boarding with scrap paper and adding pieces of mesh in place of the glass. Derrick had this mesh in the garage, but you can use any kind of mesh that you'd like. They sell many types at your local hardware store. Small chicken wire would work as well.

    You can use any size of frame that you'd like. I used a 4x6 one that I had, but an 8x10 one would be perfect if you have a lot of dangly earrings.
