Hello everyone! Happy Monday! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend! We finally got our hvac fixed this weekend, so we are all very excited!

Vintage China Jewelry Holder

I have been making jewelry holders out of old plates for a while now to display my jewelry at craft shows, but I finally decided to make one for my personal jewelry I keep on my vanity bookcase. The design is really simple, the bottom is a diner plate, the middle is a cereal bowl, and the top is a condiment dish, all separated with glass candlestick holders and glued in place. I added my favorite tea cup to the top to hold my earrings. Teacups are great for earring storage! It’s probably not the most organized of jewelry organizers, but I love it, and it works for me. It’s such a versatile design. You could use them for tea service, craft organization, or just as a general catchall. I love to repurpose, especially when it’s cute and vintage!
