A match made in heaven
They were a mismatched pair… some people said that their relationship wouldn’t last.
“Look! He’s closed and buckled down…” they whispered.
“She’s much too open and trusting!” others tittle-tattled.
….
….
…
But they didn’t care. Their differences were what united them – what made them special. And beautiful.
After a night of dancing and twirling, they liked nothing more than to nestle next to each other in perfect harmony.
Many thanks to the fantastic Maria-Thérèse, the girl who lives in a world of fairies and unicorns, for making these wonderful earrings for me – and surprising me with her gift.
I do love mis-matched things – be it earrings, socks or opinions.
How about you?


I think they’re fun! And they go, even if they don’t match.

I think I sensed that about you, Fi – and that’s why I like you! Wear them in fun and health!

Those are adorable!

Nothing wrong with mis-matched, even when they match as well as those. Very nice gift/

What a perfect gift for you!! I can just see you smiling while you have them on!

How Fun and Fabulous! You couldn’t help having fun with those on!

It’s perfect. I love the colors and I would wear them. If you don’t need them, I can wear them.

I adore these earrings… They are one of a kind, so sorry, I’ll have to hang onto them!

Mismatched can either be the best or the worse. By all sounds of it, you have the best when it comes to marriages and earrings.

They are perfect, and perfect together. If they matched, would they have much to talk about?

Opposites can be perfect bedfellows – so to speak. My wife and I are opposites but have been compatible for 46 years. Those earings will be just fine together!

I like them too. And I admit, I never thought a “mismatch” would match so well.
April 29, 2010 at 13:34
Those are adorable! I wish I could have my own pair…. Now I am now off to see her blog…

I love crazy striped or polka dotted socks…but truthfully never wore a pair that was mismatched…maybe I am missing out?!?

Oh those are gorgeous. Such a lovely shade of hot pink. Perfectly mismatched. Love em also.

Delightful!

I’m way too anal to like mismatched things. I did babysit a girl once who would ONLY wear mismatched socks. I couldn’t handle it!
April 29, 2010 at 18:12
Well, that was a very nice surprise and I do love the mis-matchiness of them (I know that’s not a word but it just seemed right…). It’s a cool picture, too.
April 29, 2010 at 19:11
I love those. They’re so full of whimsy and sweetness!

I used to wear mis-matched earrings all the time; I love asymmetrical stuff
April 29, 2010 at 22:43
Mismatched things are a hazard of being me, as are inside out things, back to front things. I need help dressing!
April 29, 2010 at 23:30
Those are wonderful earrings! I’ve worn mismatched earrings…just not on purpose!
