Earring carousel

Earring carousel, originally uploaded by tsarina_amanda.

I have something like 75 pairs of earrings on this right now. I keep finding earrings tucked away in odd places and probably have a few more pairs somewhere. I only had two earrings without mates after sorting all afternoon and cleaning up the table. My earring club subscription from Wyrding Studios has been active since February 2006. Five years now! In case you ever wondered what five years of earrings looks like, this is probably a good start. Things I noticed - I have a lot of green things, and a lot of things with fantastic crystals.

Very impressive!

If you ever need another one, let me know. I can get them wholesale from one of my display vendors.

I only have about three rows left to fill, so I imagine I might have to take you up on that. :D

My next goal is to find clever way to display all my neckvines, collars and such.

this is like a work of art in itself. Makes me wish I could wear non-gold earrings!

I have a nickel allergy, so surgical stainless works best for me. If you have the patience for it, coating the wire/stud with clear nail polish works to protect your ear from metals you can't usually wear. I find I have to clean and reapply polish every third or fourth time I wear the earrings, but it's worth it for ones I really really love.

Also, oooh, shiny. I would try to set that someplace where it can make rainbows for the cats to chase and/or sit on. :)

Almost all earrings can have the hooks replaced with nothing more than a small pair of pliers, and if you want to wear silver earrings grey niobium hooks aren't obtrusive and usually work for people with metal allergies - it's a very inert metal. It's pretty easy to get a bunch of earwires and just swap them out.

Oh my! That's so pretty. I only have three pairs of earrings!

I am apparently a shiny object coveting corvid. :D But now hopefully I can wear them all more frequently.

Envy!

(I have got to get my ears re-punched . . . .)

It's awfully fun to have some shiny bits for the ears.

if my wife ever needs one of those I'm moving out.

*laughs* Okay, so I've just started wearing earrings again after not being able to tolerate them for a few years (I think it was a weird fibro thing) and I've been digging out my old collection of earrings and making new ones for myself, and I keep thinking "man I really need to buy some kind of organizer for these!"

...I have about half a dozen display racks in the basement with my show equipment. It never even occurred to me to haul one out of there.

This is the greatest thing I have ever seen!

That carousel is so pretty!

I rarely remember to wear earrings, maybe cos my hair is long...

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Oh, that is awesome! I need one too; I have a ton of earrings, and I'm always losing half of a pair.

[tsarina.livejournal.com]

Amazon has a pretty epic array of such items. That is where I found this. They come in a few different sizes too.

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Wow, thanks. I never would have thought to look on Amazon, but they're really reasonably priced, too! I will so be getting one soon.
