Handmade Faux Leather Earrings



A Look Back at One of My Creative Adventures

There was a time when my crafting journey took me in a completely different direction — designing and creating handmade faux leather earrings ~ Kim's Earrings. The site is no longer, but I couldn't help looking through pictures of my collections and remembering all the fun I had making them. They deserve a space here to share.

I discovered specialty jewelry dies from Taylored Expressions that were designed specifically for making earrings, and naturally, I couldn't resist. Before long, I had collected jewelry dies, faux leather in all kinds of colors and patterns, charms, wood pieces, pearls, jump rings, clasps, and everything else I needed to create my own collections.

I even had the packaging and supplies needed to prepare the earrings for shipping and displaying.

This little creative adventure eventually grew into a full online shop, where I made more than 300 handmade earrings available in my collection. I built the website myself using WordPress and Ecwid for the e-commerce side, and created promotional images and collections to showcase the earrings. Below are some of the promotional ads I created for the Shop.

Although that chapter of my creative life eventually came to an end, I still have photographs of many of the earrings and collections I created.This gallery is simply a look back at something I once loved creating. No shop. No selling. No tutorials. Just a little piece of my creative history.
