This week TJ has given us Jewel Box as a prompt.
How could I not have a jewellery box, I’M INDIAN!
I have many, actually, filled with beautifully coloured bangles and adornments. Yes, I do have the real deal, but that is kept safely in the bank, as I feel to scared to keep it in my house!
What I keep at home is many, many boxes of different artificial jewellery, and over the years I have accumulated all manner of pieces!
All I know is that when the time comes, I have plenty to hand down to my daughter, and future daughter-in-law!
When I got married, I was given a beautiful set of wooden jewellery boxes from my dear university friends, and my mum bought me lovely metal bangle holders. These are what I have used for the inspiration for this post!

And as I was trying to be an artistic photographer… I had an assistant! He needs to be featured too!
