How to make a display for rings

How to make a display for rings :

Submitted by:  Two Trees Belgium

Being a big fan of rings, usually big rings too, it had to happen; I found nice adjustable rings blacks and started making rings in porcelain and clay. Now I had to find a good way to display these on a fair. I know you can buy displays or just stick them in a piece of foam rubber, but that’s not so nice. This idea struck me when I was just back from the DIY store, so had to go back again……cause I wanted to use the tubes that are meant for the insulation of water pipes.

How to make a ring holder

So get some of those tubes, I got the smallest size, get some fabric and a frame, IKEA is great for this. Get enough tubes to fill the frame.

How to make a low cost ring display

Take the frame apart, you only need the actual frame.

do it yourself ring display

Cut the pipes to length, just a few millimeters longer than the opening of the back of the frame. And open each of them. Cut the fabric, so there is enough to go around the tube and than add about 3-4 cm (1,5 inches) to that.

Making a ring display

This way you have enough fabric to go back into the tube.

Do this for all tubes and fill the frame.

Turn it around and fill with rings and your display is ready.

    Great tutorial! This kind of display is great if you have a lot of rings to feature. If you don’t have enough rings to properly fill up a display this large, rings also look great displayed in a small bowl filled with tiny pebbles (like the kind used in aquariums or sold in floral departments at the craft store). I got this idea from a retail store I used to work at and it works great for me, as I don’t currently have enough rings to do a display this big.

    This is a great display idea and I have another one to add to your Tutorial mine is in words only:-)
    * You could buy fabric in various colors but the grey would look best. I buy Silvercloth the type that they use in Jewelry boxes,Silverware storage etc. I buy it on line at: http://www.nancysilver.com/
    Its very wide and a reasonable price. They also carry on their 2nd.page is" Polishing Cloth" with wide width to keep your products clean. Lot of other items you might find useful.

    2. I make Polishing cloths and give them to my customers when I see Sterling Silver OR Silverplated designs. Its a surprise when they receive their pkg. I also insert several of my Business Cards.
    Remember these are 2 DIFFERENT products, SILVER CLOTH and POLISHING CLOTH.
