I don't remember specifically when this great taste for earrings began.
As a child and teenager I always wore the same earrings, earrings that my maternal grandmother gave me and I didn't want to change. I wanted nothing to do with wearing any other kind of earrings.
Life changes and moves on and I think it was when I was studying my computer courses and then when I started teaching that this fascination and the collection of them began.
 |  |

I liked to go to the craftsmen's fair in my city, which always took place between the first and second week of October. There were many articles of all kinds, but what attracted my attention the most were the earrings and rings. But the rings ... that's for another day.
They were in silver, alpaca, which is more malleable, and many contained stones of various shapes and colours.
The designs were always amazing and I attended every year since 2002. That year a cousin told me about the fair and I liked it so much that I never stopped going until I moved to Spain.
 |  |

When I started teaching computer classes, one of my students was making jewellery of all kinds, styles and designs. At the same time she was giving classes at home on that subject and my mother started to attend. My student sold the materials and so my mother bought everything she needed.
 |  |
|---|
So she started to make costume jewellery for herself and for me too, I think that, at that moment, more than any other, I started to collect earrings.
The stones she bought and the designs my mother came up with were so beautiful that I would always ask her for a new one and I would wear them all.
When I was teaching I always had to be well dressed, elegant, at least that's how I like it. And accessories couldn't be left out, so I wore everything my mother made me.
There were more rustic ones and other more refined ones.
Stones were a must, and I especially like mother-of-pearl stones.
 |  |
|---|
They come in many colours and in my case, if they were red or pink, all the better. It is the colour I like the most.
Earrings with wooden stones, transparent stones, mother-of-pearl, fantasy stones, I liked everything.
 |  |
|---|
And I never had a problem with allergies in my ears, as many people do. So I could wear any kind of material. That made my collection grow more and more every day and I loved that.
Of course I also had earrings that I bought at the fair. And the number of earrings was increasing.
Other earrings were given to me on special occasions like my birthday.
I prefer silver to gold, so I only have gold as a souvenir from my grandmother.
Then I have some silver earrings that, at the farewell party for my departure to Spain, many of my students gave me. They are also beautiful souvenirs that make me relive that moment.
Earrings specially given to me by my mother, which are a beauty and I reserve them for special occasions.
Even my friend here in Spain gave me a pair of her own, which I treasure very much.
I especially like the pendants, the longer ones, as you may have noticed in the photographs. Since many of them are the ones my mother made for me at my request.
But I also have them in many shapes, colours and designs.
Of course I couldn't bring everything I had in Argentina, but many of them came with me. I can't help it, I love them.
The best of all is that if one breaks or something happens to it, I have my mother nearby to repair it. No kidding it's true and she's always happy to do it.
It's not just a collection of earrings, it's art made by my mother, in most cases and in other cases a collection of precious memories.
Thank you all so much for watching and reading this far. If you like any of my earrings more than others, please let me know in the comments, I'd love to know which one is your favourite. Guess which one is my favourite.
Greetings to all and see you next time.

Thank you!!
Tienes una bonita colección de aretes extra hechos por tu madre. ¿Escribiste sobre salir de España? Quizás el traductor lo tradujo mal.
Me refería a que me los traje a España, casi todos los aretes. No, no salgo de España jajaja. Muchas gracias!!😃
What a variety of earrings, one prettier than the other ❤️ I used to wear them, until one infected the whole area and I didn't want to wear it anymore haha what a pain! Then I used to wear pressure ones, but they also made me hurt a lot and I didn't enjoy them that way haha
They are all very nice ❤️
So far I can use everything and I love it! Maybe you could try some silver ones.
I love earrings! Thanks Yami!❤️
Beautifully crafted pieces.
Thank you so so much!!!!🤗
What a beautiful collection you have, I like them all @avdesing
I am a fan of these things, but what I use has to be made of silver, I don't know why another material gives me an ear infection.
But at least you can use silver, they are beautiful! I love them and change between them! Thank you very much @miprimerconcurso ❤️
Ooooooh, so what is this?
How beautiful collection of earrings!! 😍
I also have many earrings, most of which I got as a gift from students, friends etc... but I can't wear any of them right now, my ears just refuse everything, even silver or gold. What a pity with so many earrings I have... (though I wanted to show them one day as a collection haha, and the scarfs too :D)
Your mother made some very nice ones, that is so cool to have someone at your home to make you these lovely earrings! I can't choose which one is my favourite... too difficult choice 😇
I love the earrings... and the rings! I'll get the rings!
I just ask my mum and she makes them, she's divine! And if something happens to one of them she fixes it for me.
My favourite is the elongated red mother-of-pearl one and the elongated silver one too, but I like all of them.
I look forward to seeing your collection!
You seem to have an allergy to earrings, that's a shame. I hope you can wear them again sometime.
Thank you very much @mipiano!❤️
Some of my earrings just arrived to Hive 😇
I saw it on my way out to a forest hahaha I just got here!
I could never have a collection of earrings. You know @avdesing I'm always missing one. It seems to be just me. I'm more on the lookout for them lately. Let's see if they last me a little longer. But yours are cute. And elegant. What a great idea to share them to admire. Thanks friend. Bonita noche.🥰❤️❤️
It happens a lot, I have 3 that are missing a pair and I didn't put them here and one that I lost on the way home from work. Thank you so much @mamani , I love my earrings!!!❤️
A very mystical and colorful collection, I find many pieces with a very Celtic, tribal, indigenous air, and I find that fascinating.
Very nice, I congratulate you Amonet.
Maybe!!! I hadn't noticed that, I really like the rustic, but also the delicate and festive. Thank you very much @manclar ❤️

You have a beautiful collection of earrings. They must look super nice on you... 😉 (and how nice that your mom made some for you)
👌
My mum makes me almost all!!!! I am lucky!😃
;)
Cool. 😍
I have to look for everything, but I love the rings!
Tengo que limpiar todo esto. Cuando lo haga... que no sé cuándo será, a lo mejor escriba sobre mis modestas joyas.
I have very similar ones! So simple and beautiful! I also have to clean🤣
Hola @avdesing. Muy bonita colección de aretes, saludos a tu mamá excelente diseñadora, me gustaron todos. También me gusta hacerme mis propios zarcillos y pulseras, tal vez las exhiba en algún momento. Saludos.
La verdad es que tiene mucha imaginación mi madre y si atrévete a traerlos así los vemos, sería genial!! Muchos saludos!❤️
Now that is a very impressive collection of some spectacular works of art there!
As an earring lover too, ( all big colourful unique jewellry...) I would be sooo happy if I were you- having your mum there as the resident artist and repairer!
I am sooo jealous.
I used to make my own with bits and pieces, then beads but now just buy them from the op shops and have soooo many to repair, but not the time...but I will keep them here with me and maybe one day in the future, grow another pair of hands to do them for me.🤣
My mum has a great inventiveness for these crafts and enjoys them very much. It's great to make your earrings too! I'm sure you will make them again later!❤️
Oh I wish my silly fumble fingers were as good as your mums!
(they're not...so I find crafty things like that- especially when working with such tony objects- very frustrating...)
You're sure to make some beautiful things!
Haaa I wish!
But thanks for the vote of confidence!
🤗🤗🤗
