  5. I had to wait until I was 16 to get my ears pierced. I remember it being something I wanted to do more than anything. In my teens I pierced the top of one ear (my self!). I let it grow up in my 20s when I also got my 2nd holes only so daughter would let them do hers. I never chance the earrings in them. They are just there. lol.

  6. Ha, cool grandma! I had my ears pierced since I was a baby and so did my daughter. Then we got another hole in our left ear together when she was about 11. Later on she added a hole to her right ear but I left mine at three. If one day my granddaughter wants me to pierce my ear with her, I’d totally do it! Thanks for being a cool hostess too! 😀

  7. Hi Kathy, ya’all have very cute ears!! Clever post!
    I have always thought when I was young, that ears are the funniest thing!!
    Thanks for hosting this week, hope you are doing better after your health set back.
    Have a great weekend!

  8. I got my first (and only) set of holes when I was 14 or 15. I had gotten “sleepers” to do them myself on the QT so to speak. But being 14 or 15 I decided that it was taking much too long – so in my girlfriends bathroom, I put a sewing needle through the start of the holes so the sleepers would finally be through. We did sterilize the sewing needles so we were thinking “safety”. When my daughter wanted hers done … I took her to a jeweler to use a gun … since I figured she would probably do what I did if I didn’t

  9. Hello beautiful! Thank you for hosting such a fun party. We would appreciate it if you would stop by our party. We would love to see what you have been working on! Lou Lou Girls

  10. Hi Katherine, I really liked your post on ear piercing. It’s a really fun topic. I went through the stage of several piercings. But I am down to one in each ear, I just took out my second holes a couple of weeks ago, they had been pierced for 30 years! I’m just tired of putting them in and out. My little grand daughters have had them pierced since they were 6 weeks old and they are so darling. It’s such a matter of choice. Have a lovely day and thank you for hosting. Hugs, Jo

  11. Thanks so much for hosting, Katherine (and ladies!). I have 1 hole in each ear ~ my Mom took me to get my ears pierced when I was 13 and then when I was 15 I wanted a second set….my mom said no but I was rebellious and used a DARNING needle to make my own second set of holes…yep…bad idea and wow did it hurt…I let those holes close up about 5 years ago…I wish I hadn’t now…OY! Have a wonderful week and thanks for sharing your story.

  12. I only have one hole in each ear, but that’s because my ears are so sensitive it’s all that I can have. My oldest, she just turned 16, has two holes, wanting her 3rd. And my almost 10 year old is terrified to get hers done, although she wants them. She was with us when Kayla got her 2nd hole, and we thought she was going to do it, but when she saw how red Kayla’s ears turned when she got them done, she decided it wasn’t for her. Oh well, she’ll get them eventually I’m sure. Thank you so much for hosting and have a wonderful rest of the week!

  13. I only have 1 set of pierced ears. My mom had 2 and then regretted it. My sister has double pierced, then a cartilage and a different one, I forgot where! Sometimes I wish I had double piercings, but I think I would faint if I got another set, haha.

  14. HI Katherine, How fun all your girls getting their ears pierced again. I only have one but maybe I need a 2nd so I can wear the diamonds too. You’ve inspired me. Thanks for hosting another great party and have a great week, Lisa

  15. That is the most fun set of pictures! My mom pierced mine the old fashioned way. By my step dad pinching them, holding ice on them, then mom with a large needle and a potato behind my ear. Never again that way….Thanks for the party!!! Carrie, A Mother’s Shadow

  17. Y’all are too cute Katherine. I only have two holes in each ear. I’m older though so maybe that’s enough! Thanks for hosting and have a great week.

  18. Love your favorite things this week. It’s adorable to have your family line up of ears! Too cute! (and pretty) I have two in one ear, and one in the other. My mother did mine when I was 12 and as an older teenager my best friend and I did a second set in our ears. All was great until later on, my first born son ripped my ear to grab an earring. I had to have it cut and sewn back together. After a few years, I had one hole pierced in my repaired ear. You inspired me to get a second one in that ear again. 😀
    Thank you for another wonderful week! hugs~

  19. Aw, Katie I got my first set of holes when I was 5 years old and now years later have three in each ear. My girls still have none, but am thinking of getting their ears pierced soon hopefully for the first time each. Love that is your favorite thing and thanks for hosting once again!! Xoxo 😉

Love each other as God loves you xo
