I usually use leverbacks on my earrings so laying them flat or against a background really isn't an option. I usually hang them on a stick (I like the twig idea!) or silver rod, I always make a solid background with a tablecloth, that way the earrings take the attention and not the background and they are hanging freely.

I like to put my earrings on a black card, not velvet, because it attracts a lot of dust, but then I set the cards in a bowl or wooden basket or glass container fill it with coffee beans and the cards stand up and also allow you to display more in an area than laying flat. people also love the smell of the bean. also i sometimes place the earrings on the cards on a table that i drape with cowhides and riverocks, sometimes the all black rocks really look good.the card are easily propped up between the rocks especially the big rocks, driftwood branches also look good or even broken deer antlers.

Since I live at the coast and my jewelry designs are done in silver and precious stones and crystals, and sea glass and reflex the beach, I take my designs out to the beach and photograph them there. I either put them on a shell I bring with me, a glass float, or driftwood, I use the waves as my background. I have many compliments from people who look at my things on etsy

I picked up a couple of wire mesh letter holders at the dollar store. It has 3 levels to hang the earrings. I use art foam sheets cut into small cards (4mm x 5mm) to hold earrings together. They stack well for travel into the longer drawer dividers (also from the dollar store.)

I use a picture frame on which I put a felt backing and use jewelry pins to attach the earrings. It is easy for the customers to take them off to try them on.

I'm interested in making bracelets. I'm at a loss as to what stretchy material (weight, etc.) should be used to for this project. Please advise. Any tips you have along these lines would also be helpful. Thanks. Christina

Hi, I like to clip a length of chain in my Chain Sta to display my earrings for pictures; it makes it easy to see how they will hang and to get the length correct. (This also works great for taking pictures of pendants.) Waynette

I use plastic canvas (remember plastic canvas needlepoint?!) to hold my earrings. I decorate it, and then put my earrings on it.

My husband & I got a couple of old picture frames from a thrift store and put painted black screening behind them. I prop them up with a plate holder when I set my booth up at the local farmers' market. They work quite well for earrings, I can get about 7 pairs on one frame. If I want to display something along side a pair of earrings I've made hooks out of craft wire and use as a peg board. Wendy L.

You can also take a wooden dowel and screw in some little hooksto display your earrings, as well as taking a piece of cork board and covering it with a pretty fabric, then using pins to stick up your earrings on it. The possibilities are endless!

I use a screen stapled to an old picture frame! It adds character to the display and easy for customers to view!

i use a crystal champagne flute for photographing my earrings, with a piece of white card behind the glass. then after taking the photos, i edit them so the background is white and crop to just around the earrings.

To go along with the branch idea, I have put earrings and bracelets on the Christmas tree. I have also used scrapbooking precut tags for display.

I use old buttons and put each wire or post thru the holes. This keeps pairs together and you can choose buttons with an eye to enhancing the earrings. Also, your earrings stay in pairs especially when transporting them to shows. You can also sew the buttons to a banner or hanging cloth and display many pairs in this manner.

We have a website for the jewellery we make and sell and we use slate as a background and then use driftwood and pin items to it so that it gives all of our items a natural look. http://www.thepurplecowjewellery.co.uk
