Jewelry Boxes are Practical and Fun

From fun for little girls to exquisite cases and cabinets, jewelry boxes can be found in all shapes, sizes and price ranges. What little girl would not love a little pink jewelry box with pretty flowers or pretend jewels on it that has a ballerina inside or a little mirror so she can see just how cute she is with those exquisite jewels from the vending machine? She can have a jewelry box featuring a trademark character or colorful patterns to fit any child’s personality. These are usually inexpensive and made of pressboard. Some come with a built in wind up music box to add to the fun.

Avoid the dresser or dressing table clutter with a wooden jewelry box lined to protect items. Keep earrings and jewelry sets organized and quickly accessible for that quick change from work to a night out with that special someone. Men can find these useful in the valet style covered in leather for that masculine look. Some can be very expensive depending on the material it is made from and the style and options. Obviously the more intricate the design and variety of compartments, the more expensive it will be.

A larger jewelry cabinet with carved legs makes a stylish edition to your bedroom décor and is multifunctional. Not only can you organize and store your jewelry, most come with a lock and offer protection from theft or that nosy neighbor. Some cabinets are made from natural woods, stained and varnished, creating a beautiful piece of furniture. They can have beautifully painted glass inserts in the doors or even subtle lighting inside the cabinet.

Another aspect of the jewelry box is that it can be a collectible item providing pleasure both in the hunt and the acquisition. Collections can range from color to theme to material. With the endless options for jewelry boxes any collector would be able to find one to include in their trademark collection. Think about an array of jewelry boxes in the shapes or featuring pictures of sea animals or lighthouses.

If you need someplace that you can stash your goodies, but don't want an actual jewelry box - try a trinket box! These look like animals, other objects or fictional characters. Think Snow White - but she opens up to show a hidden compartment.

We often overlook the trinket box - usually used to hold a ring set or watch. These can be lidless or have lids with hinges that lift off or slide to one side. Made from metals to cardboard, ranging from the very ornate to one color, these are perfect for the nightstand or your little girl’s bedside table.

Because of their versatility, styles and price range, a jewelry box makes an excellent gift for a child, a special someone, or even a coworker celebrating that retirement or anniversary.
