Framed Jewelry

Do-It-Yourself Decorating

Mounted and Framed

My sister decided to enter her beautiful jewelry pieces in our local county fair. To display them, she mounted them on black velvet in picture frames. This was a complicated process. I believe she used thread to attach each strand of beads in several places to the velvet, which had been mounted on cardboard. Thread attachments were needed at many places in order to keep the necklaces in a nice rounded position when turned vertically. My sister then removed the glass from two matching picture frames and inserted the velvet-covered cardboard. They really came out beautifully!
