the remaining earring of a pair I made soup to nuts and subsequently lost half of ages ago. the materials were from beadworks. I loved the crystal cubes so much, the whole project was so I could buy and keep looking at them

styled with yet another pair of early 00s hoops

I remember very little about these except being taken by them even though they aren't my usual style and as I suspected I ended up barely wearing them. I love their understated jingle and the shape of the hook.

a yearring purchase from spencer's. there were four pairs with no duplicate cards and I'm weak, I bought all four

I "shuffled" and drew a "giving" and "receiving" "card" for my right and left ears. and I'm lazy so here's what wikipedia says about them

giving/right: The Sun

"This card is generally considered positive. It is said to reflect happiness and contentment, vitality, self-confidence and success. Sometimes referred to as the best card in Tarot, it represents good things and positive outcomes to current struggles."

receiving/left: The Hermit

"According to A.E. Waite's Pictorial Key to the Tarot, the Hermit card carries several divinatory associations:

9.THE HERMIT.--Prudence, circumspection; also and especially treason, dissimulation, roguery, corruption. Reversed: Concealment, disguise, policy fear, unreasoned caution.

The card is usually thought to connote aspects of healing/recovery, particularly the kind that happens over time. In that regard, The Hermit is sometimes considered the mature and wiser version of The Magician. As such, both cards represent the astrological sign of Virgo."

I should wear these more often! but next year... ;)

I bought these for myself impulsively from a tourist trap in Banff, but not cheaply like usual (still weren't expensive or anything). my partner at the time was with me and didn't think they were anything special, fair enough, but I wonder if he didn't realize they were stone...

the earing bases are old, handed down from my mom in slight disrepair and I believe handed down to her. I added the purple dangles, salvaged from a broken probably-necklace I found somewhere during my teens, maybe a swimming pool change room
