Sometime last week I asked the twitter fam to describe the baddest pair of earrings they owned. I’ve been on a hunt for some seriously bold earrings and wanted to see what folx were sporting.
Enter @itsFaitheee and her handmade earrings:
Now this photo tells me 3 things. 1) Faith is gorgeous, 2) those earrings are badass and 3) we have the same Target jacket!
But wait! There’s more! Floored by the frawesomeness that were her earrings, I asked where she got them from.
She told me she made them.
What? Yes. In her words:
I Love earrings and spend a lot of money on them, one day I told myself I was going to take the money I spend on them and start making my own. I did just that! I found myself loving the process of designing wEARable art.
(Get it? wEARable? LOVE IT!)
Now, if you know me know me, you know I’m a creator at heart and passionate about people being empowered to create instead of just consuming. Faith is a creator, too. She’s currently a makeup artist and finding that she loves to paint as well. She uses materials found in her travels to make her earrings which she’s currently not selling online. So these are exclusive Faith earrings, baby.
“I am just creating things that I like to wear,” she told me. “I have gotten many compliments and offers to purchase my earrings, so it may be something I consider in the future.”
Well, Faith, I certainly hope you share your gift with a few other people. I’m glad you shared it with us!
