These adorable little earrings are made from small upcycled brass hinges and gold earring findings (lever back). Pick your favorite–there is a slightly longer version with blue-green lampwork beads, and a shorter version with tiny iridescent indigo glass beads.

The hinges may look heavy, but these earrings are actually super light and comfortable to wear, with each one weighing in at about a fifth of an ounce (about the weight of a few paperclips). The lever back earring style gives you some added security, making these earrings less likely to fall out and get lost.

These make great gifts for any occasion, for anyone with a quirky sense of style or a love of fun earrings.
