PICS Feather Earrings LOST huge sentimental value

[Athena Wilde]

These are the lost earrings, any help much appreciated!

Hello
Learnt a hard lesson on playa wind - my earring backstoppers not strong enough and my most special, beloved (sentimental historical reasons) flew away. Spent hours looking for them but couldnt. Sorry for the MOOP

Here i attach a pict. Would really appreciate if you have found me please contact me (isabel.beagle@me.com).

One earring is long with green feathers and a couple yellowish leather strings.

The other has a golden ring with three red feathers attached to it.

MANY thanks

Isabel

you weren't the only one to lose a feather earring, i found one but it wasn't one of these, hope someone found it

[Athena Wilde]

Thanks, yes for sure unfortunately i was not the only one!
My friend lost a pair of orange-earthy coloured feathers - just like the ones in the pic attached but orange instead of blue. Just in case

Thanks

Reason you don't wear shit like this in the wind. It becomes MOOP, even if the feathers don't break.

[Athena Wilde]

Thank you. I thought i had already said that i really regretted it and lesson was indeed learnt. But thanks for the gentle reminder.

[tamarakay]

Athena I like your style.

[666isMONEY]

no, not one of those in orange.
after i found the feather earring, i wore it around (to Robot Heart, at sunrise),
similar to the one I found sell for about $12/pair, some are even less but of course sentimental value has no price

[Athena Wilde]

Thank you Tamarakay, i like Dye with Dignity and definitely will visit next year!

You did apologize for the MOOP. I just wanted to reinforce it. There's whole lists of stuff that one should reconsider wearing/bringing to the playa, and some of them aren't obvious..like fringe, beads, astro-turf, hot-glued appliqués...I'm our camp's MOOP Nazi so I think about MOOP all year.

Email sent. I think I have the round one. Found it today in a moop Baggie. Feathrs a bit worse for wear. Pm me an address and I'll mail it to you.

[Athena Wilde]

Oh my god! Thanks SO MUCH. Emailing you right now. THANK YOU and SORRY for all the hassle.

[tamarakay]

Wow! Sometimes this works. This made my day.

[Athena Wilde]

Thank you yes it did make mine (which was previously crap) too! My day, my week, my month! Really amazing that something like this can happen in a 70,000 ppl city - thanks Elorrum!! Shit only we have to wait almost a year to offer you guys a drink!? (or three?)

Hugs all around in a year, o.k.? I'm happy that tamarakay got to experience our little miracle, too. We are neighbors on playa. One nice little world.

... And nothing happened next

Whoa. I thought this was a lost cause for sure. High fives all around!

Whoa. I thought this was a lost cause for sure. High fives all around!

I don't know. That wasn't my final takeaway ... based on this:
