| June 2004 Methods for Display |
| Southern Flames is sponsoring a display at the Smyrna Library this summer which is being coordinated by Sylvie Lansdowne. She asked members to bring to the meeting examples of display methods. |

Margo Knight purchased this display
stand on Ebay for about $45.00 and uses it to showcase part of her amazing
bead collection. The back part of the stand can be used to display
beads horizontally or vertically on mandrels. It can sit in the base
or be hung on the wall. There are addition short mandrels built into
the base for displaying single beads.

The three wooden necklace stands on
the right were brought by Robert and Camille Simmons and Marcy Lamberson
contributed the cardboard version on the left. Robert put a hook on
the back of the wooden stands to keep the necklaces hanging properly- see
below.

Sylvie purchased this Easter egg
holder and then used some clay to attach a wire to hold the bead.
The clay and wire are permanently adhered to the base by baking the whole
thing in the oven for a few minutes.

The stand holding the fish is made of
glass - we think the fish and stand are a creation of Pam Dugger's but
please let the Web Mama know
if this is wrong.

| Linda Edmunds (Lily Steele Beads) made the stands and the birds shown below. The wooden pieces were purchased at Michael's Craft Store and the wire which is glued into the wood is hammered aluminum armature wire. The whole stand is dipped in shellac to give it some color and shine and the birds can be lifted off.. |
