The Box

I found that jewelry box I was so desperately searching for! Those of you who follow my blog know what im talking about. I have been looking for a jewelry box to keep my own precious jewels in. It’s been hell finding something that I both liked and that fell within my budget, but after looking for months I finally found it. Last Friday I went to the market in Arnhem. There is a market each Friday and Saturday but the Friday one is way bigger with more than just food. It has clothes antiques, food and more. I was just wandering around and decided to go look by the antique things. There were all these cute old couples selling stuff that they were no longer attached to. I remember there was this GORGEOUS antique hairbrush and mirror, totally like in one of those fairy tales. I loved it but knew that I don’t have space for stuff like that in my little room.

Anyways I continued looking when I found this super pretty box. It was made of wood and had been hand carved. There was some damage at the bottom where the wood had separated but I didn’t mind it was so adorable. Plus when I asked the lady for the price… Only 5 Euros!!!! I was so excited I bought it right away. I will upload a picture of it at the end of this post. Let me know what you all think of it!
