Jewelry armoires offer a unique and lovely way
to store your jewelry collection. There are several options
when it comes to these armoires. You may find it useful to review
the different options that are available to you before you choose
which one is right for your needs and preferences. For example,
• Wood is the most popular choice for jewelry armoires.
There are many wood tones to choose from: cherry, oak, walnut,
alder and many other woods make beautiful armoires. The stains
on the wood you choose is also something that can affect the
visual results.
• Painted armoires offer various choices for your decorating
venture. The most popular of these is a white painted option
or whitewashed armoire. Painted versions are often well suited
for a young girl’s bedroom décor – featuring
princess, fairies or other motifs.
• Wall mounting is an option to consider as it helps to
get the furniture up and off of the floor, allowing some additional
space saving.
• Styles can vary greatly from classic, contemporary,
rustic, mission and antique. The sky is the limit.
• Armoires can have mirrored doors, interior mirrors,
or transparent glass doors to showcase a display of treasures.
It takes some planning and looking to find the jewelry armoire
to suit your preferences as well as your bedroom’s style
and dimensions. It is a good idea to make a drawing of the room
and furnishings to scale. This can be done fairly easily if
you use graph paper. There are also computer programs that will
create a scale representation of the room for you if you enter
in the room’s dimensions as well as the measurements of
the furniture.
One of the key points to decorating a bedroom is to keep it
from becoming overcrowded. Jewelry armoires are generally small
pieces to add to a room and will not overcrowd a well planned
out room. Keep in mind the paths necessary to walk past furniture
and get through the room. This is referred to as way finding.
Walking freely through a room, without bumping anything or being
crowded is important, particularly if the room is on the small
side.
The most obvious function of a jewelry armoire is to store
expensive necklaces, bracelets, earrings, watches and other
treasures. It is important to note that these armoires can be
used to store other collections of small items, such as collections
from various trips. Some people collect spoons or thimbles from
their vacations. These types of little things can be stored
and displayed in one of these armoires. Jewelry armoires can
be used for jewels and other collections to store, showcase
and display treasures.
