a short story about a pair of earrings.

Prologue

This is the story about a girl, a pair of earrings, and the advice of her Facebook friends. Follow along as she embarks on a journey to make an epic decision.


Once upon a time there was a girl who had a little Etsy shop.In her shop she sold handmade jewelry and the occasional vintage find.

One day she was out thrifting and found a fantastic pair of vintage earrings. But they were ridiculously long.


Having given old jewelry new life before, she decided to buy them and turn them into two or maybe even three pairs of earrings to sell in her store.

Nobody could possibly want a pair of earrings that long.


But the longer she looked at them she wasn't sure what to do. Should she leave them be? Make two smaller pairs of earrings? Make three smaller pairs?

She did what many before her did and asked her Facebook friends. After many comments the verdict was to leave them be.

So she brushed her hair and changed her shirt and took some photographs. After wearing them around she realized they weren't too long at all.

They were dramatically long.

They were fantastically long.

They were just right.

She wondered, should she keep them?! But she had already tweeted a photo telling her friends they would be coming soon to her shop!

She was in a conundrum.
She no longer knew what to do.

So she did what many before her did and asked her Facebook friends what to do. And after many comments she knew.

Keep them.

And so she did.

The end.
