About Bedroom

I’m a man. And like most men, I don’t own much jewelry, other than my father’s watch and a few pairs of cufflinks I’ve received as gifts over the years. But, like many of you, I am also a married man, which means I have a wife who LOVES jewelry. As a result, I have bought her jewelry for pretty much every anniversary, birthday, and gift-giving occasion. I know, not very creative, but she gets just as excited every time, so I figure I should stick with what works.

Anyway, over time, we both realized that her jewelry collection was causing some major problems in the bedroom. As you know, I love keeping things organized and neat, and her necklaces and earrings were always scattered about on various dresser and desk surfaces. She tried keeping them in a drawer for a while, but never stuck to that, since she said they would get all tangled. Finally, I decided to put my bedroom organizing skills to use, and began a search for the perfect jewelry storage unit. That’s when I found this incredible piece of furniture called jewelry armoires.

Now, being a man, I had no clue what jewelry armoires were. But now that I’ve discovered them, I have to recommend them to all of my readers, at the risk of sounding somewhat feminine. Jewelry armoires are exactly what they sound like: armoires for jewelry. They come with several drawers and places to hang earrings and necklaces, so they can keep your expensive gems and chains clean, organized, and easily accessible. And the best part, to me, is that they look like another piece of gorgeous furniture in your bedroom, or even your living room. You can even get one with a large mirror on top, and we all know that mirrors add the illusion of space to any room.

I bought my wife a cherry jewelry armoire - that was one gift that wasn’t actually jewelry…but I suppose it was still in the general category. I am a big fan of cherry wood. I just find it has a certain sophistication about it. They also sell hand-painted ones, oak, white, black, and more. You can also get a wall-mounted or free standing one. I prefer free standing, since it looks more like its own separate piece in the room.

Definitely consider checking out these great organizers, space-savers, and decorative pieces.
