Drab to Fab: Jewelry Armoire

Earlier this year I was thrifting in my fav store here in Mesa and saw this jewelry armoire for twenty bucks!  TWENTY BUCKS!
What a steal of a deal!
I finally got around to dressing it up a bit with a little spray paint, hot glue and a few accessories...
with some elbow grease, primping and a smidge of work,
it was transformed into this little gem!

Awwww, true lve!


Take a peek at some before & afters:

Betcha didn't know our blog designer Connie B. also has a knack for crafts...
see her tutorial HERE I used to make my earring holder :)

From drab

to FAB!

Now my jewelry is as happy as me!
The end :)

  3. that is my favorite fabric inside, and the whole thing looks amazing! i don't know why i have never thought of this for my "costume jewelry." there is no law that says my good stuff has to go here, yet that is why i have avoided them in the past. i feel like they are saying to burglars "here i am, here we all are." but your funky jewelry in there shows me that doesn't have to be the case. seriously, i need to go hunt for one now!

  16. Love the shabby look with the pops of color from the fabric linning & of course, the jewelry!! And that sweet mirror from your sisterinlaw, tied off/up with the ribbon makes for a beautiful little corner vignette. :>

    I've hopped here from 504 Main's Tickled Pink hop & I'm so glad I did. Hope you are having a fantastic weekend!
