Holiday 2022: More Is Merrier.

By the holidays of 2022, apparently a little Christmas cheer was simply not going to cut it. We were going all in. 🎄

Three holiday seasons into my polymer clay journey, I was having the absolute best time bringing all the nostalgic, colorful, slightly over-the-top little details to life. Vintage Christmas tree earrings, retro lightbulbs, big red bows, pink poinsettias, pepperminty greens, fur pom poms, and enough festive personality to decorate a whole tree. Or at least a very well dressed pair of ears.

This collection had a bit of everything: the sugary whimsy of Sugar Plum Fairy dangles, cardinals and wreaths for the traditional holiday crowd, gingerpeople and Christmas tree cakes for the sweet-toothed, and some very familiar pop culture mischief for good measure. I love seeing the fun little contrasts between delicate shimmer and unabashed holiday kitsch.

Looking back at my first holiday collection in 2020, it's so satisfying to see how much my techniques, confidence, and creative point of view had evolved. The ideas were bigger, the details were more playful, and I was clearly not interested in making anything boring!

More bows. More sparkle. More nostalgia. More little things that made me ridiculously happy to create. Because when it comes to holiday earrings, more is merrier.
