I am so thankful that Jenni gave me a pair of these turquoise leather feather earrings, they are perfect with everything from jeans to maxi dresses. My hair short and I love the drop earring style, they are making a loud and clear statement! The leather was very affordable, now if I can talk her into making some tassel earrings ๐Ÿ˜‰

    2. Love your leather feather earrings. My hair is also short and all gray. Nor one for dangly earrings but worth a shot .Love the aqua leather. Don’t have a Cricut to cut with, will do by hand.
