A girl who wants to look stylish selects suitable jewelry for each look. Usually there are many different beads, earrings, bracelets and rings in stock. It is not practical to store everything in one box, pendants are intertwined with earrings, and it is almost impossible to find the right ring. Therefore, a convenient option would be special stands for accessories, where everything can be laid out or hung in its place.
Making a stand for rings with your own hands
There are many storage methods, such as ring boxes, racks with hooks.
Some housewives use saucers, cups, and beautiful boxes of sweets or cookies for this purpose.
Having even a slight idea of needlework, you can make a stand with your own hands; there are several simple methods.

- dilute the plaster with water to the consistency of thick sour cream and pour into the glove;
- pierce the fingers of the glove in several places to release the air;
- hang the glove to dry until the plaster is dry; you need to insert a piece of wire into each finger for strength;
- after 3-4 hours, cut off the wire if it sticks out and trim the bottom;
- dilute a small amount of plaster and coat the lower part of the hand to make a stand;
- leave to dry for 10-12 hours without removing the glove;
