Crazy or Creative???


It all started on day Chas had to go to Gander Mountain to get his hunting license .. the line was long so he decided to go look at the fishing lures until it got smaller.. We had to find Chase his usual stuffed fish ( he has 5 i think) and of course we found one he didn't have. Chas was checking out some spinner hooks and I was checking out how pretty some of them were... There was glittery ones... Silver ones... copper ones.. you name it they made it.. So I kinda veered off and was checking out ones that I could make into earring but yet not look like a fishing lure... There in the last isle I found hooks that had 2 spinners( the flat metal part) and matching beads on them .. can you imagine... Well my wheels started turning and I picked up 3 and headed off to find Chas.. We went to check out and I set them down and he looked at me with that "now what are you up too look" I simply replied " makin earings" he just shook his head and paid for them.. So then of course I had to stop at Michaels to get the rest of the part to make the earrings so when I got home I got to work..My girlfriend thought I lost it and offered to by me a pair if I really was in need.. So I wore them to work and got many complements and now I made 8 more pair to give away... I think I'm going to hand paint on some to sell .... By the way .. Chas liked them .. he said " Now all I have to do is get a 2inch hook and put it in your mouth and throw you in and see what I'll catch..." Ya funny hu? By the way the packaging is from the original I just cut it in half and restapled it... You could say I was being "green"
