First For Women

Corral odds and ends

With a bloom-kissed dish

-

A teacup, beaded wire and a faux flower team up to create a lovely catchall for hairpins, earrings and other essentials. To do: Place a wooden coaster (or trivet) and a teacup atop a saucer. Snip silver craft-store jewelry wire to 1 yard, then slide about a dozen wooden beads onto the wire, spacing them out evenly. Coil the wire around the base of the cup, then twist the ends together. Next, coil a faux-pearl necklace (or a strand of beads) around the base of the cup. Finally, fill the cup with trinkets and top with a bloom “lid” to hide them.
