I have incorporated everyday household items into my booth displays for show casing my special pieces!

shutters, bottles, baskets, they all have a great artistic flare and add a lot of character to the booth.

I haven’t done any shows but am thinking about it, so it was interesting to read all the ideas here.

I have a shop on Etsy, so I have to try and display my work in creative ways through photos. I have a small round table set up outside on my deck, covered with a square tile. It sits next to an outdoor sink, so I place a white tablecloth over the tile and up over the sink and hold it there with a brick. It forms a backdrop that I can adjust any way I’d like, but I usually keep it nice and smooth. I drape my beadweaving over large rocks, driftwood, large shells, acrylic hand and face/neck forms – anything that I think will help show off the pieces. Not a very professional setting, but it works well for me!
