I needed a form to display and photograph necklaces...
so, being cheap, I improvised.
I took some foam core and cut a shape...
Like a gravestone...that's what my family thought.
Using Elmer's glue...or mod podge...
I covered with pieces of kraft paper...I used lunch bags.
I stacked stuff on it to keep it flat.
Then I did the same thing for the other side.
I prop it up on an easel...
Ta da!

Perfect for the display and photographing of vintage crystals...

Let one side dry completely...
After it was dry (which doesn't take long here in the heat)I stacked stuff on it to keep it flat.
Then I did the same thing for the other side.

Linking up to THESE parties this week!
This is a neat project with lots of practical applications. Would you consider linking this up at my Pinworthy Projects Party? I would love to see you there.
ReplyDeleteWhat a simple and clever idea! I was just thinking I needed one of these. Pinning this for future reference.

Such a great idea! I featured a link to it on Moogly this morning! http://www.mooglyblog.com/craft-fair-checklist/
ReplyDeletecould even add a glued on pop out stand made of all the same products so that you never have to worry about loosing base :) like a stand up picture with the kick stand leg :) food for thought
