I thought I should share this useful resource. I don't know about you, but sometimes the costumes I buy come without matching earrings. Fortunately I found a lady who makes earrings and other accessories for dance costumes. Her price is very very reasonable, compared with other places. I have been using her services for a long time now. I never saw her business mentioned on this forum. I thought I should share it with everyone here. Her business name is Ballroom Bling. It should be easy to find her online. If you have any questions, please let me know.

For someone that compulsively (should go to thread)_ wears matching earrings its odd that I actually prefer non-matching ones. Is this a no-no?

From my own personal experience, I found her earrings are not very sturdy. I had a pair custom made. Yeah, I know this stuff can be delicate, but those large clusters of stones you see in the pics are held in place with one center gob-o-glue attached the the earring backing. Unless she has altered the way the creates them, be prepared to reinforce them yourself or lose a bunch of stones. Also note that she sells on eBay for about half those prices (none listed at the moment though).

Hmmm. I never had any problem with her earrings. I bought about seven pairs from her so far. Maybe I was lucky?

Don't know. Not trying to slam her, and the earrings are gorgeous, but I was disappointed in the workmanship compared to other earrings that I own. Maybe I received a "dud" :p

I've bought earrings from her on ebay and they are all very pretty. They are a bit delicate and have to be handled gently, but I have never lost any stones. I think once she posted a note saying that she had changed her method of attaching the stones so they would be less subject to breakage, so maybe the troublesome ones were her earlier method.
