I love earrings, especially if they’re funky, fun, or different in any way. I just can’t resist buying them. I try my hardest to get all my jewelry locally, and lucky for me Windsor, Ontario is full of amazing artists who create quality products. To me, earrings are an absolute necessity for any look. Whether it is a professional occasion or a night out, Windsor has earrings for you. Here are some of my favourite local places to buy my earrings from:
Livi + Jean
Named after the creators’ two grandmothers, Livi + Jean produces fun, vibrant polymer clay earrings. I own multiple pairs of their earrings, but my favourite is a double paired set of sun and cloud earrings. Whether I wear the suns or the clouds, or mix-and-match, they put me in a good mood and bring smiles to everyone around me! Livi + Jean is always teasing new designs so make sure to follow their Instagram: @liviandjeandesigns

The Beadiva
The Beadiva is probably my favourite local maker to buy earrings from. All the designs are so unique and interesting; as well as incredibly affordable! My favourite pair that I’ve bought from her are these dangly astronaut earrings. I get showered in compliments whenever I wear them!

Culture Shock Jewelry:
Culture Shock Jewelry is an Indigenous and multigenerational family owned business. All their products are handcrafted. I own their silver Cedar Earrings; not only are they gorgeous and elegant, but they are perfect for every occasion! It’s been about 2 years since I’ve bought them, they still look brand new, and I wear them all the time. Amazing design and amazing quality!

Iris & Marnie
Iris & Marnie is a shop that has been on my list for a very long time. Hopefully 2023 is finally the year I make a purchase! Their jewelry is handmade, colourful, and a blend of both clay and metal elements.

I’ve seen Yassmeen’s Shop at a couple of local events and have always been drawn to their jewelry. Catch her at the Downtown Windsor Farmers Market for the 2023 season (hopefully I’ll see you there!) You can check out their designs on their Instagram: @yassmeens_shop
