subject: Jewelry Stands as a Keepsake [print this page] A jewelry stand can be an incredible keepsakeA jewelry stand can be an incredible keepsake. Stands are often handed down from generation to generation of loving, sentimental women who wish to share a special part of their lives with their daughters and granddaughters. You will find many jewelry stands are hand crafted and designed, sometimes carved from a single piece of wood, and this careful care in their creation adds a cherished quality to them. Let me remind you why every woman and girl should have one!
Jewelry stands are small treasures that little girls love to play with, waiting anxiously for the day when Mommy or Grandma deems them worthy of inheriting such a gift. And while they are waiting, these little girls are treated to stories of wonder and romance that filled up the lives of their elders. This is an important tradition still going on today, that helps women forge an emotional bond with others in their family.
In today's times it has become especially important for every woman to have a jewelry stand in their possession to display their best earrings and necklaces for quick selection. It's important not only for the simple economy such a stand offers but also as valued memorabilia that helps to slow life down when things get too frantic and stressful.
My own mother had a jewelry stand with a music box at its base. The sweet and somewhat haunting song it plays still finds me in quiet moments sometimes. My sister spent countless afternoons playing dress-up at my mother's vanity table with this beautiful stand, winding up the music box over and over to let it run. My mother gifted it to her on the day she moved out of the home to start her own life in a fresh new home.
