Happy Friday!!
Yesterday, I stopped off at a local thrift store and brought home this sweet jewelry box silverware chest. (Thank you to Kathy of Kluless for the tip that it could be for storing silverware, which totally makes so much more sense! Silly me.). I have never seen one before, and really liked the detail in the legs, and the scalloped edges. Isn't it cute!
The top opens up and there is a little section piece for necklaces silverware. I have some other plans for this sweet piece!
These are the two drawers, and it has the most beautiful brown lining inside...ha, just kidding! So, here is what I have already done...
I ripped out the inside, and started clearing out all the paper stuck to the wood. I still have the drawers to do, so stay tuned! I'm going to be painting it and covering the inside with vintage wallpaper. I am deciding on a color. What would you do?
I won a most lovely giveaway from the sweetest Helena of Blondie Blu. Thank you so much Helena for all the pretty gifts!!
This sweet vintage Doxie pin is what I won in the giveaway! Is he not the cutest!! I am looking forward to showing him off on my cardigans!
I am making good progress on my granny square blanket. I am loving how it is all coming together!
Wishing you all a beautiful weekend!!

Thank you Denise! What a sweet memory! Have a lovely weekend! xo Heather
DeleteI have never seen a jewelry box that big! The vintage wallpaper is a good idea, I think I might add some old velvet on the bottom for softness.
ReplyDeleteYour blanket is coming along nicely...Looks like it is almost finished.
Thanks Sherri! Kathy of Kluless just let me know that it might be a silverware chest, which makes so much sense!! I was thinking it was pretty big, too, for a jewelry box! Love learning!! Have a lovely weekend! xo Heather
DeleteThis is going to be fantastic, what vintage wallpaper have you got? I have loads if you need any!! Can't wait to see the finished result! Ada :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Ada!! Thank you for the offer!! I just ordered some vintage wallpaper with blue roses and pin dots! I will keep your sweet stash in mind for next time! You're so sweet! Have a great day!! xo Heather
DeleteThat's a beauty!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! xo Heather

Oh, how sweet!! Would love to see a pic! Thanks so much! xo Heather
DeleteI suspect the jewelry box might actually be a silverware chest but it will make a stunning jewelry armoire! I am anxious to see how you paint it and finish the inside. Yes, I think vintage wallpaper will be a perfect addition.
ReplyDeleteKathy, I think you are so right!! Silly me! It is totally a silverware chest!! I am changing the title on the post! I thought it was pretty big for a jewelry box!! Thanks!! xo Heathe
DeleteThat jewelry box is a pretty project!
ReplyDeleteOh, how sweet is that! a package from Helena, that's a party in your
mailbox isn't it?
The blanket is looking good...

ReplyDeleteHi Heather!
ReplyDeleteOh wow what a fun project! Well, you should definitely redo in your favorite color! I'd maybe do shabby white or even pink! How fun and can't wait to see!
Happy weekend!

Hi Holly! Thanks! I was thinking a shabby white or green! Looking forward to getting it done! Have a great week! xo Heather
DeleteCan't wait to see how you finish it off - what a great find!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Rachael! xo Heather
DeleteI thought it was kinda big for jewelry ... but then again, I'd need a few of those in order to store all my necklaces, bracelets, earrings ... I can't believe you don't wear jewelry. I don't feel dressed without it. Congrats on all those sweet gifts you won in the giveaway. Your granny blanket is beautiful. Happy weekend wishes, Tammy
ReplyDeleteI know, the only jewelry wear is my wedding ring. I feel silly wearing other jewelry. :) Thanks!! have a great week!
DeleteHI Heather ~~~ It already is a beautiful piece and I bet you will make it super beautiful. I am excited to see how it turns out Heather. Keep us posted.
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful blessed weekend.
