paper clips and a pair of pliers.... intriguing huh?

see i was in a jewerly store and i saw just plain old paper clips attached to earring backs, I liked em but I am way to cheap to spend 7 bucks on paper clips...

I thought to my self... self, you could make those earrings if you wanted to.
so i got crafty... I stole some paper clips from work (shh dont tell them LOL) and i got home but i didnt like just plain old paper clip ones, thats when i busted out the pliers and made the ones in the pics attached. My fingers hurt from making them (you wouldnt believe how hard it is to bend a paper clip) but i think they turn out nice.

So what do you think...? confused

Some people really like em and some people really hate em.

 

Errr...I think they look like......paper clips?

 

Oh they are paper clips... but i bent a big one to hold the little ones on

 

Paperclip earrings are for the Yuppie Pseudo-Punks. Teh real Punks wear safety pin earrings and nose-rings :cool :major.

Paperclips have 1,001 uses. I should write a book on it, eh.
