we're girls...we must accessorize

Accessorize is a must for us girls and for some boys also.
When do the lines blur between a want... a need... a must have...An Addiction !
I posted last Friday some new jewels just in at the Barn.

Today I thought I would show a look ... peek... a glimpse ... 
of MY Addiction with jewels.

It was once a clean, layed out neatly, jewelry drawer in my closet.

That soon over flowed and I brought things outside the closet.

Don't get me wrong, I love the vintage screen I found to hang my necklaces.
In fact, I showed the screen this way at the Barn and soon sold all of the vintage screens.
However, in the beginning, each hook held only one necklace. Now there are three, four and sometimes five necklaces on each hook..... yikes.
But wait....




many layers of fun

I made this one to sell but could not part with it...
the perfectly painted key hole and the little purse hanging from the bottom
")



my feather necklace....LOVE



no words needed here...
this is four different necklaces...


then things spilled out onto my dressing table....
it started with the ole'... let it fall when I'm too tired to put things away..
... it then turned into... well, I'll probably wear it tomorrow so I'll just leave things here..
... and then... where would I put this stuff anyway... there is no more room!


seriously, I didn't stage this....this is what it looked like this morning when I grabbed my camera... addiction, a need, a want...??? I know this would drive most people crazy... this mess... but I kind of like it. It's like a treasure hunt every morning...



new things keep coming into the Barn....


and I only order what I like...


so a big part of it comes home....


some are artist made with vintage finds that I acquire when I'm out shopping


with layering being the in thing, you really do need many necklaces...
or so I tell myself...
everyone has this many...


this one is one of my new favorites...

Now you know one of my secrets...
I have too much for neat storage...
I can not pass on something I like / love / want
And it is not my fault...
I'm a girl after all...and we must accessorize.

Your addiction could be worse ~ it could be ice cream!

LOVE your photos and am now going to look for an old screen to hang MY addictions on!

The cuffs are adorable and going fast at $15... i have on a number 5 this morning.

Layer it on. Change it up.

Time for a refresh. Have you ever looked at an area in your house and thought I am done looking at that mess.   Or maybe it's just time...
