Jewelry Box Gifts for Valentine's Day

Jewelry is usually at the top of every girl's Valentine's Day wish list.  But let's think inside the box for a minute.  With all the fine and costume baubles, charms, statement pieces, studs, hoops and chandelier earrings we've accumulated, we need a pretty place to store them.  So a jewelry box (or few)-- like the decorative-yet-practical Jewellery Boxes from H. Samuel-- is the perfect gift for Valentine's Day.



Everything She Wants is partial to stackable jewelry trays (photo below) that fit neatly inside a dresser drawer.  This is a great way to organize your jewelry by type (bracelets in one tray and earrings and necklaces in their own trays).




And for a dresser top, nothing beats your Mom's classic, multi-section jewelry box (top photo) that will store all your jewelry stash with ease.




If you have a bigger bedroom or closet space, you can fit most of your collection in a stand-alone jewelry armoire.  But beware, these can look cluttered in smaller bedroom spaces.




Women with a bohemian sensibility love hand-painted wooden boxes.




For little girls, tweens and girly teens there's nothing more precious than a musical jewelry box with a princess or a ballerina on top. Who are we kidding, we want one too!




When traveling, make sure to keep your jewels safely stores in a foldable jewelry bag.

DanceAfrica 2024 Returns to Brooklyn Academy of Music

The DanceAfrica Bazaar is one of my favorite annual street fairs. I love to watch folks show up and show out in their flyest Afrocentric garb and to shop for handmade beaded bracelets and earrings from the African vendors.  And when I'm fortunate enough to snag a ticket as I did this year courtesy of BAM, I enjoy watching the kinetic African dancers (this time the country featured is Cameroon) during the spirited and spirit-filled DanceAfrica performance at the Howard Gilman Opera House.   (Photos courtesy of BAM/Tony Turner) If you want to join in the fun, here's the weekend lineup that's truly for the culture.
