I – love – earrings. They are fun. They have character. They add elegance. They add charm. They can make or break an outfit. Plain and simple.
Earrings (in particular dangly ones) have become huge over the past few years with celebrities wearing everything from simple hoops to huge elaborate masterpieces. Where you used to have to go to a jewelry store, you can now find fashionable earrings just about anywhere (Have you seen Target’s earrings these days?). Earrings are fun and can make a great gift.
Ok MsGift but what makes earrings such a unique gift? People have been giving them for years.
I am not talking about just ANY earrings for that special someone, but earrings from one Joan Hornig.
Joan Hornig is a jewelry designer who not only creates beautiful pieces but donates ALL of the profits made to charity. The best part is that she doesn’t donate the profits to just any charity, she lets YOU choose which one you would like to donate to. (See her foundation page for more information on the charities supported)
She has everything from necklaces to bracelets to charms to jewelry with special messages. I personally would LOVE to receive a pair of earrings from here.
To note: The earrings (and the rest of the jewelry) are not cheap. The prices range from $325 to $2500. But when you know the person receiving them will be happy and you know the the money spent will make 50 people happy…it makes it worthwhile.
