I've been wanting to buy a jewelry box for years, but something always stopped me. The ones I found were too formal or too casual or too small or too big or too expensive. Whatever the case, I haven't had a real jewelry box in about 10 years. Enter West Elm:
Don't you just love them?! The silver hardware, the beautiful lacquer finish. The white one is my favorite ~ so pretty!
However, I wasn't too keen on the $100 price tag.
Well, meet Joi {of Nuestra Vida Dolce} and her incredible Home Goods find:
I couldn't believe it ~ they're practically twins! But at $15, Joi's option was MUCH more appealing.
Unfortunately, if you've ever shopped at a store like Home Goods {or Marshalls or TJMaxx or Ross}, you know that the chances of finding the same thing in another Home Goods store are slim to none. So I didn't even bother looking.
Fast-forward 1 week. Ben and I had tried out a new church that just happened to be right down the road from Home Goods. I thought nothing of the jewelry box {since I'd already given up on that dream} and instead went in to window shop. While perusing a random isle, I glanced down and, hidden in the very back of a bottom shelf, was the jewelry box!! I couldn't believe it! Needless to say, I snatched it up and {after receiving approval from the hubbie} made it mine.
It now resides in our Master bedroom on my hand-me-down, bamboo Pier1 dresser:
Isn't it just divine? I love when my decorating dreams come true :)

HomeGoods is where it's at! And that green bottle? LOVE!
Yeah what a fun find!!! And I LOVE that turquoise/green vase next to it...where did you find that??
Thanks, everyone! I bought the bottle at TJMAXX about 4 years ago.
Beautiful blog!
