Friday Favorite



Just a quick post today before starting the Fourth of July festivities here.  Today's Friday favorite is a shadow box filled with vintage costume jewelry.  I don't collect vintage costume jewelry, but do have a few pieces from my Grandmother as well as some pieces picked up at antique stores and flea markets from time to time.  I bought this shadow box at the thrift store for $2.   It was stained brown and was a little beat up.  I loved the size of it and just gave it a few coats of white paint and used some pretty paper to fill in each of the niches.   Lastly, I selected the pieces of jewelry to go in the case which now sits on a desk in a guest room.  I like the fact that I can see the jewelry now and it is no longer hidden away in a box under the bed.
