Decorating Tip: Drama with Gems

Many of your probably have some pieces of vintage costume jewelry (or even a modern piece you don’t wear anymore) stuck in a drawer or in your jewelry box. If you like the piece, but just don’t wear it, why not repurpose it? Brooches, pins, earrings and bracelets can be displayed in your home for a bit of sparkle and added drama. Pin a brooch to a lampshade or throw pillow. Display pieces in a shadow box. Hand an earring or a bracelet on a figurine, drawer pull window shade. For just a pop of elegant shimmer, this is an excellent way to use what you already have.
