Earring dilemma
I have painfully expensive taste when it comes to certain things…and its making it very difficult to find earrings for my wedding. Every single earring I have loved comes with a 4 figure pricetag before that decimal point or else if its slightly affordable, its the wrong shade of green. So my darling readers, if ANY of you have any leads as to where to find funky earrings like these in a fabulous green for a fabulous price, I will love you forever!

I second Etsy. The best part about Etsy is that most sellers will custom-make for the same price. These sellers have some neat ones that could work, esp. in a custom color:

There is also a company called Dasha Boutique http://www.dashaboutique.com which has jewelry at reasonable prices that you can cusomize in different stones. They have many style options. It’s worth checking them out.

try jools.us. hers may be too casual/not as understated and elegant as these, but the prices are awesome.
i recall buying and returning similar earrings a couple of years ago from anthropologie.
lastly, hannahkoodesigns.com. she will custom make jewelry for you upon request using stones in just the right green, i’m sure.

Hi Vane,
Since you like twist – which is in Seattle, I thought I’d pass along another Seattlite
SchwaDesigns. She does fabulous work and will customize whatever you want. http://schwadesigns.com/earrings.shtml

I don’t know if the green is the right shade for you, but I am considering these earrings from Saylor Sage for my own wedding- pretty and completely affordable. She has a ton of great things on her website that are worth a look.

a few other etsy thoughts –

hoops, but maybe one of the stones is the right color?
