A Little Treat To Myself...

I just finished a three-day immigration law training, and I am maxed out by all the legal rules, regulations, exemptions, and many odd scenarios. So, after the last session today, I decided to stop by the bead shop to see if I could find some materials to make a pair of earrings for under $10. I was partially inspired by the earrings one of the presenters was wearing earlier this week. Big and wide, but still somewhat classic looking. I also wanted a touch of warm tone...after hearing about detention hearings, deportation proceedings, and VAWA petitions all week, I was ready for some warm fuzzies.

It didn't take long to find the pieces I wanted at the bead shop..and even faster to put them together. So, the result above is my spontaneous treat to myself today!
