This vintage jewelry chest has had an extreme makeover; from worn wood to whimsical white!
I love these solid wood vintage jewelry boxes.
Especially when the interior is my favorite color blue!
The engraving plate was removed before the entire thing was cleaned with a damp cloth and
spray cleaner.
One of the hinges was loose so the top lining was carefully removed then the lining connecting the top and bottom to reveal the hinge. 4 wee nails were missing so replaced and back to solid. The lining was spray adhesive back in place.
Then folded around the edges carefully.
The engraving plate holes were lightly covered but still able to be found to
put back on. The inside top lining was put back in place with spray adhesive.
New felt pads were put on the box base as well.
It is available on

What a funny coincidence. I am about to start on this exact box. Same turquoise lining, some kind of name plate. I don't have this transfer but I have a plethora of others. I can't decide who h one go use. I think that's the problem of having too many choices.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA agreed, too many choices but how fun we have the exact same piece. I love when the universe does that!! good luck
