Hey all!
This is my first contribution on here. Ive had my Glowforge for a few months now. As someone who has been affected by Breast Cancer (My mom) this design was really fun but also really important and exciting for me to make.
I have attached photos and the file in one big bundle of a earring display stand and little sign I made for my moms local business for donations to our local cancer center (where she received her treatment) and where we will be donating all the proceeds to. I hope someone else will find this useful.
It can be used as any awareness ribbon if its just painted differently and I made the engraving removable/edit-able. lol
I made both signs with 1/4 maple plywood.
Earring Cards with 1.5mm Thin Basswood from Amazon.
Ribbon earrings with 1/8 Pink Acrylic.
Hooks for earrings made out of 1/8 Clear Acrylic
Editing to add-In the file there is one extra layer for the bottom part of the base, it has no hole. I realized after I took the photos that without this third bottom layer the Big Ribbon could fall through the bottom when trying to move. This third layer keeps this from happening.
Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions!!!
That’s really well done & love your choice to make the stand in the shape of the ribbon, too!
Thank you for the material list–I have used thick (50-100pt card stock/chip board) for cards for items, but the bass wood looks really clean and crisp & great background for the pink!
Thank you so much! I had accidentally bought it awhile ago thinking it was thicker wood and it sat until I realized I could use it for earrings! haha I really like how it works with them too
Thank you, Im not sure why it is still doing that. I have updated the post. When I click on the link it downloads as an SVG. Is there another file format that would work for you?
Thank you so much. She is Cancer free and has been for almost 2 years. Such a blessing. I hope many will be able to use this design for many different illnesses. <3
As someone who’s had their own breast cancer I’m beyond delighted to see this. Thank you. The care centers rely on volunteer efforts like these to run the non-medical programs that help patients feel less frightened and alone.
when you download it and open it in whatever program you use (I use Illustrator), the whole file comes up. All is not on the artboard, so what is showing up is what’s on the artboard. It was all there when I opened it in AI
Perfect timing!!! I made some wood/pink acrylic earrings and your set up will work so nicely for sales. I donate sales to my local breast cancer organization. THANK YOU <3
