What to do with those old vintage earrings

It was a rainy Saturday and I needed something exciting to get me out of the house. My mom has a HUGE collection of vintage earrings and eyesores that we actually used to WEAR in the 80's and 90's.

(On a side note, WHY where our earrings that big?! Didn't it make our ears hurt? I remember my ears hurting, but it didn't stop me. I DO NOT want that trend to come back!)

So, we sifted through all the junk, glued them to picture frames, and produced a super cool  new frame, full of old memories! Some of the earrings I wore, some were worn by my mom or sister, but I remember all of them! We laughed as we tried on the ugliest and tricked the person that left the room last.

This was  fun easy project and I love the result!
I also love how I put my glamour shot with my moppy headed son and wrapped us in a towel. Okay, just kidding, that came in the frame.


WHAT?
You doubt that I WORE the big earrings?!?
Okay, if you are gonna  make me pull out proof...
just know you only have yourself to blame.


Ouch. That perm. Aren't you sorry you asked?
