Throwing caution to the wind

Earlier in the year, when I realised I had gazillions of pairs of earrings and they just weren't getting enough wear, I had a second hole pierced in each ear. I imagine you can guess what happened next - I started to buy more earrings! So now I'm back to square 1.

I've been thinking about getting a third set of holes done, but kept putting it off. Well, today, I went for it. Imagine these amethyst studs as just tiny dots a couple of millimetres across and you have the idea.

Now I have to wonder what will happen if they get sore or infected over the impending 3-day holiday...

    You're a braver woman than me..the one hole I have on each ear very rarely have earrings..so rarely that I practically have to re-pierce them every time :-)

    Oh, val, I too am an earring lover. I only have the one hole for each ear, but I have a different pair each day. I don't wear makeup but without earrings, I feel naked. I say go for it. Just make sure you do a dab of alcohol and you'll be fine.

    I notice that Eames has multiple holes for earrings, too, so this makes you very star-worthy, Val! I have NO piercings of any sort, so needless to say, I rarely wear earrings. I think they're very pretty, but they're really not "me" anyway.

    Those are such pretty studs!!! You wanna hear the sad irony with me is that I'm allergic to metal so I can't wear earrings anymore, esp. not studs. The jewelry maker who can wear jewelry. :(

    BTW, I STILL have your necklace saved to send to you!!! lol
