Would you ever guess that a collection of random parts can turn into a cool DIY Earring Holder?

01   UPCYCLE INSPIRATION

This vintage sewing machine is rusted beyond repair and no longer works

DIY EARRING HOLDER

Let's use the hand wheel! Instead of getting the metal wet and encouraging more rust, clean the metal with hand cleaner.

Add Spindle

A spindle can help this spin so you can rotate your DIY earring holder and find your favourite earrings!

Glue

The dowel can sit inside the candle stick. You actually don’t need it if there is a big enough lip. In that case,  fasten metal to metal with epoxy for a permanent bond.

02

Attach Earrings to Cards

Insert earrings into the holes. Then attach the alligator clips to the hand wheel with an earth magnet.

Add to Earring Carousel

Continue attaching the alligator clips to the earring holder DIY with earth magnets.

FINISHING TOUCHES

03

GLUE FINIAL

Place the finial on top to hide the hole. Again glue it on with epoxy. But only attach to the hand wheel (not the dowel if you used one) or it won’t spin properly :)

See how the DIY EARRING HOLDER TURNS OUT!
