About this Product
I just love these moon phase statement earrings. They’re perfect for all you celestial beings.
They're hand made from lightweight wood measuring approximately 2.35" long, plus the hoop which is just under 1" (I do have larger hoops should you wish)
The moon phase design has been burned by hand onto the wood using a pyrography tool (like a burning hot pen that scorches permanent markings into the wood)
If you have any questions or special requests, please don't hesitate to get in touch - I'm always happy to help in any way I can.
BellesHearts
Meet the Maker
Hi, I'm Maxine from BellesHearts, thank you so much for visiting, I hope you find something you love!
Before I began with BellesHearts, I lived in England with my 3 older children, my dogs, cats, goats and chickens. I worked at a local high school as an English Language and Literature teacher - my specialism was working with students with special educational needs and/or social and emotional barriers to learning. These were some of the most amazing and wonderful people I have ever had the privilege of meeting, yet an intense and challenging time. To make a difference, passion, patience, acceptance, tolerance, creative teaching and learning, from both my students and I were paramount.
Then everything changed. I met my husband who lived in PA, we got married and I moved over to the US to live. We have a spirited little boy with whom I spend my days, along with our Goldendoodle, Gracie and our Chiweenie, Floki.
I decided to trade in my creativity in teaching, for creating with my hands. I have always enjoyed working with wood and with fabrics. Inspired and taught by my father - an amazing carpenter, engineer and artist; my mother with her strength and determination and by my maternal grandparents, with their unquestioning belief in me always.
BellesHearts was born and there is nothing I love more, nothing so rewarding as being able to create 'Handmade Memories'; truly unique and special pieces for others to treasure.
How it’s Made
The pieces of wood are cut, sanded and a hole drilled into the top. The design is burned onto the earrings using the ancient art of pyrography, which literally means 'writing with fire'. A burning hot metal pen-like tool is used to scorch permanent markings into the wood.
