A couple months ago I pinned these fabulous pink earrings to my Pinterest board titled "Pink" and then decided to share them on my Facebook page.
Well my good friend and former college roommate saw the picture I posted and made a comment that she thought she could replicate these earrings. I wrote back that I was thrilled at the idea of having a pair of earrings even remotely close to these, so she went ahead and began creating!!!
To be perfectly honest the past couple weeks have been very difficult for me...too much in the way of sad news regarding the passing of a wonderful high school friend. So just as I was getting ready to leave for Florida to visit my parents for Easter...these came in the mail.
I opened up the box and you would have thought it contained a thousand dollars by the way I exclaimed. She recreated those beautiful earrings to an absolute "T" and then some. My dear friend added extra touches like the flower at the bottom of the pink cube and chose lever-back's with beautiful detail! They are also done in silver instead of the gold so they are more suitable for the spring and upcoming summer season.
Take a look at them side by side...
She did an incredible job on these beauties and I did wear them the entire time I was in Florida! I think they are even prettier than the originals!!! Wouldn't these be the perfect bridesmaid gift? ( Just saying...)
Thank you so much Janet for making these stunners for me and for being thoughtful enough to make sure I had them before we left last Saturday.
Friends are true gifts from heaven no matter when or where or even how you find one another. They are earthly angels who seem to somehow intuitively know just when you need them most.
Thank you Janet for giving of your time, talent, and love just when I needed them most!

ReplyDeleteBarbara!!!! WOW!!! Those are BETTER THAN the original! No kidding!!! Does she want to make a new friend?;>) She did a wonderful job and how nice that it gave you a little lift after your sad week. I think that sometimes God just knows we need a special "lift" and gives us small pleasures like these.
