the perfect earrings

These babies became mine when we visited Craft Hatch market last weekend. Pip Carrol of Craft Vic did such a great job putting together a Craft Hatch Guest Blog all week that by Friday I was REALLY excited to go and see some of the wonderful products and people in real life. The lovely Sarah D had a stall there too- double reason to go!

Back to the earrings. They are by Muntedkowhai and the lady behind the big name is Puiyi Tiffany Pang. She is seriously cute, just like her work. A lot of her designs are really delicately crafted crochet/lace pieces mixed with metals and vintage buttons. Stunning but quite delicate. A bit too delicate for not so delicate me! However, these earring are PERFECTION! I tend to wear stud earring during the day as the combination of glasses, necklace and drop earrings tends to be too much! But these earrings have a kind of casual weekend, cruising on my yacht, go with anything vibe. Dress up, dress down- so far there is nothing they haven't gone perfectly with [was that a double negative?...] and I get at least one complement every time I wear them!
















So the moral of the story is:
buy them now! They are wonderful! And a bargain at $35. They come in Grey, Raspeberry and Blue knots. Buy them and then tell me I was right- they are the perfect earrings! It will be an experience that we'll all enjoy :)

ps. Craft Hatch was crammed full of brilliance! And heaps of designers that I hadn't seen before. While it's small [about 15 stall holders?] I think this is where the next big stars are hiding!

pps. Puiyi has a really cute blog here too!
