My elder sister has all of a sudden developed this craze for
bangles! Luckily for me, she gave me an order to think of making a stand for
her latest collection and this is what I came up with. Like always, my base for
the entire stand was newspaper and metal wire. Unfortunately, this was not
sturdy enough to hold her glass bangles and they would always topple off! :( hmmm…I should’ve made a stronger base structure.
My mother and sister have stainless steel
and plastic stands adorning their kitchens. I wanted one too and that is how I decided to
make one of my own. It was actually not that difficult! I used old cardboard
boxes of cereals, shoe boxes and the like as the different sections of the
stand, joined them with fevicol, gave them a wooden textured paint effect and decorated
them with dried water melon seeds. Now, that is truly eco-friendly! Unfortunately though, this did not last long
since the boxes could not withstand sufficient weight and gradually began to
sag :(
