Keepsake Stories

The Blooming Jewelry Hanger

Some gifts are practical. Some are beautiful. The best ones are both.

Liv’s jewelry had been quietly gathering — earrings tucked into corners, necklaces hiding in drawers. She needed a place where her treasures could be seen, not buried. So a board of wood was chosen, not straight and perfect, but curved and organic, like something grown rather than built.

Across its surface, blooms were painted — flowers opening their faces in dark silhouette against a sun-bright stain of orange and gold. Purple edging was brushed along the sides, framing the piece like twilight holding the last of daylight. Hooks sprouted like stems, each one ready to hold a story: a pair of earrings from a trip, a necklace from a gift, a charm that meant more than its size.

When it was finished, it wasn’t just storage. It was a garden for adornment, a place where each piece of jewelry could hang like a petal in bloom. Practical, yes. But also luminous — a daily reminder that even the smallest treasures deserve to be displayed in full light.

I’m Kerry, the heart behind Kerry’s Keepsakes. I believe every forgotten object carries a story, and with a little care it can become something meaningful again. Guided by memory, magic, and the rhythm of the moon, I create keepsakes that honor the past, celebrate the present, and invite connection.
