My Jewelry Keeper Arrived!
Filed in archive by tammy on May 28, 2007
which was an anniversary gift from my DH made it to my door via QVC this past week, and he assembled it this weekend, and yes, it is wonderful, and I'm in love....oh, with my DH of course ;)So, I thought it appropriate to give a little review here in case any of my readers have been thinking of taking the massive jewelry box plunge. One of the reasons I had to wait so long for this was because the oak cabinet was on backorder. I'm glad I waited. This puppy is pretty big, and a big white armoire would have been just too much. I like the look of the light oak.
There are loads and loads of earring storage, though it is a little tricky with these old eyes of mine to fit the earring hooks through the tiny holes in the earring organizer section, which by the way, pulls out, very handy. I wasn't sure about the large drawers at first; there are two at the very bottom with no dividers. However, I soon realized that they are great for things like my watch collection, which has its own (fairly large) box. So, these are perfect for jewelry pieces you like to keep in jewelry boxes.
I'm slowing transferring my jewelry to its new home. One thing I started to realize that, ugh!, I really need to clean this stuff, especially my silver jewelry. This particular armoire is designed to keep tarnish away, but if it's already tarnished that's not all that helpful.
It does require a small amount of assembly, but it comes with its own small screw driver and my DH was able to put it together in about 15 minutes since the main part was already put together. He just had to attach the legs and the top. Generally, speaking, we both felt it was pretty well made.
Any way, here are the stats from the QVC site if anyone is considering this:
The Gold and Silver Safekeeper Armoire by Lori Greiner helps preserve your jewelry with a special lining while it carefully stores your treasures with cubbies, hooks, drawers, and compartments for everything. Fully lined with Silver Safekeeper anti-tarnish cloth, it helps keep your silver jewelry from tarnishing for up to 25 to 40 years when used properly.
Spacious and gracious, this armoire is a fine piece of furniture, crafted with skill and care from fine wood and wood veneers. Specially designed compartments and ten earring stands allow easy access to at least 500 of your favorite pieces. A wood-framed mirror on the tilt-back lid lets you check your appearance while you accessorize.
Measures approximately 44-1/2"H x 16"W x 10-1/2"D.
Cherry Finish or Oak Finish.
