I sanded the edges to get them smoother, so they wouldn't look so rough


By taking off a few piece of the Sticky tape on the back, and laying the screen mesh over the sticky tape, I gently applied the mesh so that it was taut and straight.

I think it came out pretty good, after I turned it over....


I then cut out the leaves using a different contrasting paper from the package
I like the checker board-ish look for the leaves. I then attached it to the frame using the Sticky tape. It is stronger, and will hold better, although I think the glue stick would've worked just fine, it was just less messy.

Using the Crop-A-Dile, I punched the holes. I had to punch them twice so I could get the JUMBO Eyelet in the hole

Using the Crop-A-Dile, I then squeezed it using the pronged side, through the hole. This photo shows how you move the Crop-A-Dile to the project. (sorry, this might be really elementary, but I wanted to be sure it was clear)

I used suede cord from the craft store to hang it. I used a hangman knot to attached it through the brad (I don't know what to call that knot, so I apologize for the name)
Voila! It is done, and very cute to hang earrings on it...don't ya think?
for a "tween"
(my girl doesn't wear earrings, and wrinkled her nose at it! Hmmmphf!)
