I was anxiously awaiting these earrings because I wear a lot of blue. When I finally received them, they were so hard to get out of the plastic encasing - I pressed hard all to no avail. I finally was able to get them out, however, since it was so difficult in the plastic, THE BLUE PART of one of earrings broke off. Of course, I couldn't fix it, Took it to my jeweler who charged me $5.00 to repair it. The packing area should be adjusted making it easier for customers to access.
