Horse Shopping Vent (sorta)

How about knowing where your pearl jewelry is and not being able to get it? Not to hijack the OP (LOL) but what does one do when a car seat up and eats your favorite pair of pearl earrings? I can SEE the stud but it’s impossible to get to. This is the biggest first world problem ever but it’s been bothering me for weeks. The stud is stuck between the metal tracks and a bracket.

Germane to OP - I find it rude but that’s the norm. Facebook is public and anything said on it is the equivalent of being broadcasted at the town square. You should see what it’s like on local “Buy Nothing” FB pages, which are essentially FTGH miscellaneous goods. People respond to other people’s ISOs all the time, trying to snipe out the original poster by saying stuff like “I can pick it up before OP can”. It’s rude!

A mechanic might be able to take the seat out together earring.

I will get it out for you. I do not admit defeat on these things, ever. There is always a way.

Have you tried that magically useful device, an unfolded paper clip? Or a toothbrush to move it to a more retrievable spot? There are a bunch of other ideas, too.

Send me a close-up photo, and one showing all of the structures on top of it. We will figure this out and get your pearl stud back for you.

OK, that is frustrating! What is the post made of–would a magnet grab it?

I had a lovely pair of pearls that hung from gold hoops. I was wearing them when I went walking in the snow, and my scarf must have pulled one out of my ear. Forget finding it–I’m sure it went to the bottom of a snowdrift due to being warm from my body. I have no idea when it came off, so trying to look for it was impossible.

Although I had a silver hoop that I lost the same way in the early 80s. I actually found it next to the back door to the building I lived in at the time, when the snow melted. I still have those hoops.
