Sentimental stitch markers

I was going through my grandmother's jewelry box and found a few dangly earrings without mates.  I brought them home and got out my jewelry pliers and got to work.  1 jump ring and 1 lever-back earring change a dangly earring into a stitch marker.  These can be used for both knitting (around the needle) or for crochet (open the lever-back and hook it around the stitch/row you are marking.)
