Accessories Elevated and Maximized
I tend to do multiples of things. If you've read my other posts, you'll see a few repeated themes... the color pink, tiny things and more is more. What can I say? I'm nothing if not consistent.
As a lover of costume jewelry, sunglasses and shoes, I needed a display that did double duty as elevated storage. The funny thing is, as much as I tried to express my inner free spirit in my living space, I was reluctant to go big or go home in my vanity area. I held back and worried that my ideas were too much. Was this too bold, was this too tacky? I poured over design blogs and Pinterest pages looking for validation of my vision. And then I snapped out of it and did exactly what I wanted.
Here is the result....
I plan to do a full house tour in the near future, but for now, here is a sneak peek of the largest wall if my vanity area. I wanted to celebrate my everyday jewelry. My pieces aren't family heirlooms or even all that expensive, but everything I own is beautiful to me. I love looking at them as much as I do wearing them. I like being surrounded by my pretty things. Every time I get dressed I get to see what I have and be inspired by it. What could be better than that?
In addition to my jewelry, I also like shoes and sunglasses. All of this love was spilling out of my tiny walk-in closet. Although I have maximized every inch of that closet, I needed more space, and I wanted to be able to see what I have. So I used the smaller wall spaces to hang my heeled shoes and sunglasses.
Take a look...
I used small towel rods to hang my high heels and my sunglasses. Every morning I shop my selections and I don't have to worry about falling into that 'out of sight out of mind' trap. I get to see what I have and that makes me happy.
