Ever wonder what to do with the great vintage jewelry that you never wear anymore? I know I have a bowl of jewelry from my grandmother filled to the rim with costume jewelry that are too worn to wear anymore. I don’t wear most of them, but they are very sentimental to me. We came across this great picture where someone had framed vintage pins, necklaces and earrings in the shape of the letter “S”. I think the “S” stands for special!

This is such a neat idea and it’s very easy to do.

1)    Find a picture frame that you want to use.

2)    Cut out the same size from a fabric that you want to use as the background and from a piece of quilting fabric.

3)    Place the fabric from the background over the quilting  fabric.

4)    Then start pinning your jewelry into the fabrics.

5)    Frame your new design!
