Recycling Crafts:
Jewelry Catch-All or Wedding Table Centerpiece



by Twila Lenoir

Here's a recycling craft that makes a practical gift for Mom - a jewelry catch-all to hold her necklaces and rings.

This recycling craft project would also work well as a small centerpiece for wedding tables - just add more floral decorations, and use to hold small tulle sachets or wedding favors.

Jewelry Catch-All


Supplies:

  • 2 teacup saucers(I never used these with my dinner set because my family are coffee drinkers)

  • 2 liquor glasses - I got these at a yard sale; I thought they were so pretty.

  • Small Silk flowers with leaves

  • Glue - ask at the hardware store for strong glue for glass, that dries clear

    Jewellery Catch-All


    Instructions:

    Glue some silk flowers in the first glass facing upwards, then glue the stem of the glass to the center of a saucer.

    Now glue the next saucer on top of the glass that you just glued down, making sure that you center the saucer exactly.

    Glue silk flowers upside down in the glass so that they are facing up the stem. Glue this glass to the saucer upside down so that the stem is now a handle.

    Glue some silk flowers on the top of the glass stem as shown in the photo. Enjoy!

    This is a very pretty catch-all/centerpiece. It's one of those "Why didn't I think of that?" items.
