Some of you may remember earlier this summer when I did this post about the beaded necklaces a few of the residents at our nursing home were making.
You'll have to excuse the picture, but I was laughing when my friend Nancy took it. This is their latest offering in jewelry - pierced earrings! There have been several staff members walking around at our nursing home wearing long beaded earrings.
No, they aren't very practical, and most of us can't wear them for long because the we are allergic to the wires, but they do make a couple of guys happy when they see people wearing them.

I do remember that story, and I knew as soon as I saw the picture of you with the dangling earrings exactly where they came from. :)
ReplyDeletePerfect for every outfit in your closet! :-) With all those colors, they really will go with everything.
ReplyDeleteI remember too !! I think it's wonderful and I love the picture of you !!!
ReplyDeleteGosh you have such a radiant and beautiful smile - the earrings are great too.
ReplyDeleteThose are really cute but they'd never do around here, not with little Abby getting the use of her hands, can you imagine? OW.
ReplyDeletethose are not as bad as those goofy big hoops that i have seen some women wearing.
ReplyDeleteFunny! They look good on you!
ReplyDeletei love the beaded necklaces...and perhaps the earrings too if they were shorter...hehe
ReplyDeleteI bet it DOES tickle their fancy knowing you ladies are wearing their product. How terribly sweet is this?
ReplyDeletePS....LOVE your smile!!!
you can suck on them too! hmm, maybe you should make them out of fruit loops. good snack during the day. they are cute though!
ReplyDeleteI love that you are wearing these earings for the residents. Very sweet gesture.
ReplyDeletetres chic!!
ReplyDeletehow cute!!! it's great that they have something creative to do.
ReplyDeleteYou may start a trend! Looking good :)
ReplyDeleteOn you they look mah-vaa-looos!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet to see you wearing them, it must make the residents so happy, I can't wait to see what they creat next!!
I bet that does make them happy, but I wouldn't be able to wear them for long, either.
ReplyDeleteLove them and the picture! You have a beautiful smile!! I bet you make their days when they see all of you wearing their own creations!
ReplyDeleteI even felt brighter when I saw your smile.
ReplyDeleteWell thought they are kinda longish so guess they get tiring. bet you make the residents feel needed and useful.
Rewarding word. Have a nice week end .Ours is suppose to be wet.
They look great on you! You look so radiant! Great picture! You should not get hit by lightning now because you have ground wires. =)
ReplyDeleteVery cute! As hard as nursing can be, we do have some fun sometimes don't we!?!
ReplyDeleteMari,
ReplyDeleteWhat if you made them into a loop instead of a long string? It's the thought that counts and I am sure you are making a lot of people smile!

Oh Mari, it just brings me back to the days of being a kid and making tacky stuff and thinking it was so cool.
ReplyDeleteYou look stinkin' cute! I love that the residents make this stuff and you humor them. It's so fun!
Hi sweet friend!
ReplyDeleteYou look adorable!!!! Seriously! I know these "particular" earrings might not be your first choice, but I think long earrings look good on you with your cute haircut.
Thanks for your birthday wishes and all your visits while I've been AWOL!
Hugs!
Kat
