My Husband Thinks These Earrings are HOT, yo

Can you tell what they are?

I wanted green earrings, not goofiness.

But my husband was so tickled by these that I got them.  And I really like them too - and most people don't even notice that they're Lego.


My husband and I both grew up with mounds of Lego, although I stopped playing with them before I hit middle school.  He, however, still has a precious collection and still on occasion makes things with a pal and, of course, our children.  Probably that's why he's an architect and I'm not.

p.s.  I'm the first blogger on a Handmade Blog Tour, hosted by Amanda at Itchin' Stitchin'.  Check it out!

    Beth, the link is in the first sentence but I guess it's not very obvious:

    lol too funny!!! I use to work for LEGO in Connecticut. My kids loved the fact that I could buy damaged sets, must be why we still have an obnoxious about of LEGO in the house.

    Thanks for mentioning the tour - hope it's bringing lots of people.

    Husbands are so funny. I like the shade of green that they are. The earrings, not husbands.
