Paper clip earrings

These are earrings I made from paper clips. I sanded 'em, 'em, primed 'em, and painted 'em.  The pliers I used are regular household needle nose style and the paper clips are the cheap ones from an office supply store.  I bought a pair of sterling silver ear wire which cost $1.90. With the primer and and paint the total cost is for 10 pairs of earrings was about 10 bucks.  Cool.

I used to have a chest of drawers with a top pullout section for jewerly, but I really prefer being able to see all my choices at once. 

What to do, what to do?!?!?!
