Handmade - Two Piece Upcycled/Recycled Melted Plastic Hearts Dangle Earrings.
These fun little earrings are not only vibrant statement pieces but also environmentally conscious. These are both one-of-a-kind pieces made from melted down recycled bottle caps, containers, and other HDPE/LDPE plastic materials I have collected, cleaned up, and/or have been donated to me. All the plastic is cleaned and sanitized thoroughly before breaking it down and melting it to shape into different designs. A lot of my color choices are also LGBTQ+ inspired and are a huge part of my work. Eventually, I hope to make designs for every pride flag and am slowly making my way there from each order.
If you have a custom order idea, color scheme, pride flag, and/or theme you are interested in, please reach out as I can accommodate just about every color under the rainbow at this point or mix colors to get different effects as needed.
While I have always loved making jewelry and creating art, I wanted to be as inclusive and environmentally forward as possible while bringing joy and confidence to others with the accessories they wear and this is the passion project that has stemmed from those things all coming together.
I also make keychains and wall art in similar shapes for those not as interested in earrings. If you are looking to purchase a few, I can make you a bundle if you are interested + Free Shipping on all earring orders in the US. I also have multiple listings from my leftover pieces from my last event in various sizes, colors, shapes, and designs so I hope you can find something you love and resonate with here.
These are not coated in anything as the repurposed plastic once melted down is super durable on its own, just be careful getting them near high temps or open flames.
Each piece is unique to itself, and every single one has its own quirks and textures. This group of earrings are all roughly 2 1/2 or 3 inches long with the ear wires included or just under that depending on which design chosen and very lightweight.
Each pair of earrings also comes with silicone earring backers as well.
