Pretty ideas for storing jewelry & belts
I was shopping at a small boutique recently and noticed how pretty they displayed their jewelry and belts. They used different style bowls and tiered containers making it look so pretty, I wanted to buy everything. I thought it was such a good idea, I came home and used the same concept for my own jewelry and belts.
The first thing I got was this hanging thing at Homegoods, {don’t know what it is called} I thought it would be a great way to hang my necklaces
And it was. Now they don’t get tangled and I can easily see what I have.
Then I found some pretty bowls in different sizes. One for my watches {the thing I wear the most as you can see by how many I have}
and one for my bracelets
Then just for the fun of it, I added an Anthropologie bowl to my tray of lotions to hold a few nail polishes
For my belts, I picked up two of the these tiered stands at Homegoods. It takes seconds to roll the belts and lay them into the tray.
I think the tiered tray for my belts is my favorite. By having them in view like this, I can quickly choose which belt I want.
Here is one from Sav-on Crafts that looks similar to what I used
Are you kidding me?
You all know my passion is interior design, but I also love weddings and events. So in order to feed my addiction of all things weddings, I have an Etsy shop that I make and sell silk flower balls and bouquets. I love my little Etsy shop and working with brides.
The most amazing thing happened to my little Etsy shop today. I got an email this morning stating I was on the Etsy front page. Are you kidding me? I thought for sure it was some type of advertisement scam. I clicked on it just in case and it was legitimate! I can not tell you how loud I squeeled. Two years I have had my shop open and never once had I ever been on their front page. Not that I ever thought I would be, there are a TON of sellers with awesome creative items, but it has always been a secret dream to be on there.
I took a screen shot since I knew it would be gone in a couple of hours. I wanted to savor it for as long as I could
Mine is the third picture on the left, the white and green ranuncula flowers. It just made my day.
I also sent out my second international order today, {my first being to Japan} to the country of Azerbaijan. Never heard of it, have you? Here is where it is located.
My Etsy Find
Not only do I sell on Etsy, but I am avid shopper on Etsy. A couple of weeks ago while I was doing my daily browsing on Etsy, I stumbled upon these gorgeous candles. I fell in love. I knew I had to have them. I just got them in the mail yesterday and was so excited to put them to use. I had the perfect spot for them.
I have two antique candle sconces in my office that flank my antique mirror. I did not have any candles in them for 3 years. I just didn’t want to put a plain old candle in them, so I left them bare….until now
The Italian writing on the candle is so awesome. Wow, don’t you just love them! I know I do!
