So remember how I got my nose pierced last Christmas! I wrote about it here.... Nose Rings: The Things No One Tells You After I waited my time and could FINALLY change it, I bought a gorgeous gold and diamond stud from Beyond Body that I LOVE. It felt safe and nice, but I knew all along, that eventually, I'd want to try a HOOP. Eeek! Fast forward a few months, and I get this great little package in the mail from a blog reader, Amy. Sweet Amy was so excited and thankful for the nose ring post, that she literally went out the next day and got hers done. WOW! Rock star status!!! :) She wanted to send a little token of her thanks. Here it is! What a FUN piece of mail to get!!!! Amy found these cool sterling silver hoops in 3 sizes per set, at Abbie's Jewerly in Ashville River Arts Mall. They are called the Goldilocks Hoop set. The reason they are called this name, which by the way is so stinking clever, is that there are 3 sizes to try! One will be too big, one will be too small, and one will be just right for your nose. I wouldn't have had ANY idea what size to order, so I was really thankful for a set of 3 to try on. The sizes are 8, 10 and 12 mm. Once upon a time, Goldiltonya wanted to change her nose ring to a hoop! She was so excited to have been gifted a box of not one, not two, but THREE! 3 beautiful nose rings! She went for the 12 mm first, because it was big and shiny, and when she measure it up to her nose piercing and nose hole, it seemed to be correct. She gently opened the ring and stuck it up her nose. Would she EVER get used to this part? ICK! She fished it around in there a bit, surprised how easily it found the piercing hole and peeked through the other side. OH MY, she exclaimed, this nose ring is TOO BIG!!!! Even before she closed it, she could tell it was going to be huge. No go. Out it came. She carefully pulled it out and tried the Momma Bear medium. It had to be JUST RIGHT. Nope, still too big. Sigh. That left the teeny tiny baby ring! How would something so so so tiny and dainty ever fit inside her giant nose hole without getting LOST on the way?! Should she leave a bread crumb trail? Give up and go back to the L bar diamond stud? She fished and twitched, she worked and worked, and viola, out it came out. Lo and be-HOLED, it FIT! YAY!!! Just right! And she squealed to herself and tried not to go cross eyed looking down at it because it was so shiny and pretty. And she lived happily ever after, the end. Ready to SEEEEEEEEE?!?!?!?! I am going to show you 2 ways to wear it. So cool thing about this nose ring, is the little bead moves. You can leave it out, mid way, or tucked inside for different looks. COOL! So, what do you think??? I am totally digging it! Its sassy and fun, also super light weight. Dale? Not so much. That stinker! But he hasn't liked it from the get go so his opinion doesn't count this time around. ;) Thank you, Amy for your thoughtful gift! I LOVE it! Hugs, T

You look great with a hoop! Don't forget to clean the sterling silver periodically so it doesn't irritate your piercing. The easiest way to clean a hoop is to use a little jar of silver cleaner that you dip the jewelry in or to use a silver polishing paste (wash the hoop thoroughly after using either before putting it back in).
