Ok, just to play devils advocate....if you came across a bracelet you just had to have...you could always do the (fake) earrings. They could be considered place keepers till the real ones came along. I know quite a few people who did that combination. People can be really funny about spending so much money on earrings????
But of course this is only a suggestion and nothing more.
