    I have seen people using things such as shutters,pasta drying racks,
    wooden clothing dryer racks, acrylic cubes with driftwood,glass
    blocks/bricks,mannequin arms, heads and torso's ( waist or belly
    chains), even pvc pipe that is modified with dowels running through
    to display rings and then with one curve sliced off with a hot knife
    to display bangles..the possibilities are great with found objects
    and anything, in my opinion is better than the standard flocked ring
    tray, or abs molded displays available from Rio to Fetpack..there's
    nothing a can of hammer finished spray paint wont stick to and gives
    what ever you choose a uniform look- for example, don't leave the
    pvc pipe white with wood dowels sticking through at varied intervals-
    spray the whole with the hammered spray paint in a nice matte copper
    colour for instance to show you a) put a bit of effort into it and
    b) have an eye for design and the unusual..and before you go into how
    to make the price tags..please research the various threads over the
    years on Orchid that beat the issue to death!..rer
