All Geared Up Jewellery Hanger by Tracey Fairgrieve


Hello everyone, I hope you have had a creative weekend?
Today I am sharing a make that I created along with my All Geared up Pendant for the That's Crafty! Rustica Blog Challenge which incidentally there is still time to join in.


Here in words and lots of pictures is my All Geared up Jewellery Hanger:






Using a That's Crafty! Cogs Upright I first painted the whole surface in Black gesso and applied texture sand paste in areas. I then created the rusted colour by painting on a coating each of Red, Chestnut and Metallic Bronze Multi Surface Paint and heat set to create a few more blisters on the surface.






Dots of Teal and White Multi Surface paint adds a touch of patina.






The large Surfaces Cogs were painted the same way as the Upright.







With highlights of Orange Shimmer paint and Metallic Gold Multi Surface paints the elements are ready to be glued onto the upright.







Glued onto the upright detail and shadow was stippled
on using small amounts of Prussian Blue by DecoArt.






Using 3D glue raises the elements away from the upright 
allowing enough room to hang and hold jewellery behind them.






Finally each corner of the base was embellished with bolts from the Large Cogs set, completing my Jewellery Hanger holding a small selection 
of my handmade jewellery.






The beauty of this upright Jewellery Holder is that you can 
use both sides and it looks so pretty when on display.

Thank you for sharing your time again today and please do check out the 

Take care and Stay safe until next time everybody.

Crafty Hugs
