If you are over a certain age, you remember 1983/84, when friendship pins were the absolute height of fashion? Beads on safety pins, initials, chaotic colour combos… magic. I fully embraced this trend, I had them on my shoes, and probably on my soul. Making them, trading them — it was a big thing.
Fast‑forward to last fall, when I was doing markets. Many markets. So many markets I started questioning my life choices. I wanted something fun to draw people to my table, and suddenly — BAM — the friendship pin memory smacked me right in the brain. Perfect. Cute. Nostalgic. Easy.
Except… not easy. All I had to do was buy safety pins, which somehow became a multi‑day odyssey. It was NOT easy. Then I spent the next several evenings making hundreds of friendship pins. This is what I did during the World Series to “reduce stress.” (unclear if it worked.)
But at the markets? The kids LOVED them. Most had no idea what they were, which made me feel 200 years old, but they really enjoyed picking their favourites. It was ridiculously cute.
So imagine my joy when I discovered these charms! They are the perfect grown‑up tribute to the friendship pin fad of the 80s. Now the nostalgia comes in earring form!! This is very exciting!!
Introducing the Friendship Earrings — a little shine, a little throwback, and a whole lot of fun.
Add them to your cart and bring the 80s back… minus the big hair.
