Jewelry/music box

I have been in the search for a jewelry box for some time now. However I was not looking for a vintage one. I picked up this beauty at my favorite antique/consignment shop, Chic and Unique in SLC. I paid 25 dollars for it.




One of the Drawer pulls, was missing. However to my surprise the broken drawer pull was in one of the drawers (yippee). It was nothing a little super glue couldn't fix. When you open the bottom drawer it plays 'rain drops are falling on my head.' My Mother is the one who recognized the tune. This dates this piece to the 70's.




I painted the jewelry box white, and antiqued it by using sand paper. Now it's perfectly shabby chic.
