Earring racks from online flea market



I found two very nice and convenient earring racks from Den Blå Avis online flea market.
I do have a beautiful wooden jewelry chest, where I keep chains and wristlets.
For practical reasons, however, my earrings have ended in the shelves of the bathroom cabinet
and in a variety of small beakers in recent years.

You see - I have a habit of putting earrings on in the morning before I go to work,
and I take them out as the first thing when I arrive at home
- So I haven't really taken the effort of setting them back to the jewelry chest.





I fell for these butterfly racks, as they fit in to the toilet cabinet (height 22 cm).
A single rack can contain 13 pairs - the vendor had to racks, and I bought the both of them,
so now I have a handy storage space for 26 pairs!

I paid a total of 9 dollars for these racks.
What's more, the vendor lives close by,
so I was able to bike to her house to get them.




These white earrings is a souvenir from Norway, Hammar.
I bought the ceramic earrings from local Artisan shop a couple of years ago.




These turquoise earrings, and the ones behind them, are made ​​by my colleque.


I'm glad for having found the online flea market - I'll surely check that out first, 
before I'll go to look elsewhere.

    1. Thank you, I'm taking an online class (Art of Composition) where depth of focus had been one of the themes, so I've been working on that ~ and the racks and earrings gave me a lovely motive!

    1. Thank you Nancy, I like most that I know now where to find the earrings ~ no need to use time in searching for them ... And the element of recycling ~ that I can use something that huge other one no longer needs :)

  5. That's a great way to keep earrings handy - mine are like yours, sitting in little pots or waiting to fall off shelves! Love the photos too :)

    1. Hi Michele, that's exactly what I was worrying about ~ that I'd loose some if them cause they kept falling from the shelves :)

  6. You wear some beautiful earrings! I have double piercings in my ears, but I rarely change the silver hoops. Only this week did I find some beautiful short drop earrings with textured silver beads, so I take them out at night. Love your macro images.

  13. Your thumbnail photo made me want to come over and visit you. The earrings make great macro subject and they are so different that displaying them together makes a work of art. I keep earrings in an old eyeglass case--your way is much prettier!

  14. Thank you Faye! I had also small petri-glasses before, but they broke ... Then the earrings were floating in the shelves ... I'm happy with the order now :)

    1. Thank you Jasmin! I checked the link and there's a bunch of earrings I'd love to wear - I wonder if they are nickel-free, since I'm allergic to nickel?

    1. Online flea market is a great idea - we often times can recycle the things we do not use anymore - from earring racks to almost anything :)
