Hammered square earrings {The Thyme subscription}

July’s gift subscription box is bringing something full of sparkle and fun to our Fair Ivy Thyme subscribers. Not only does this surprise packaging mix shimmer with organics, it also keeps getting better with a handcrafted pair of mixed metal hammered square earrings – created to be modern and simple.

This month our Fair Ivy subscribers received a sweet little package from Natasha Justice of Silver Love and Mud in Loveland, Ohio. Hand wrapped in a craft paper box and decorated with gold threaded twine, hand punched gold spangles and bits of green foliage, this box is almost too pretty to open. Luckily for you, we can’t wait to show off what is hidden inside this cute little package.

Nestled inside each box is a pair of mixed metal earrings, featuring a hammered texture and just a bit of length. Created especially for Fair Ivy, these earrings have a French hook with the silver and golden squares suspended beneath. Great for a casual look, these modern earrings are lightweight and have just the right amount of shine.

Her process uses basic smithing techniques to turn raw materials into simple, modern, every day pieces that are both beautiful and wearable. To shop for other items, visit her shop at Silverlove and Mud or look for her on Instagram @silverloveandmud.

Fair Ivy is delighted to welcome back Amy from Redraven Studio this month and we are smitten with the ceramic planter she created for us. This little planter is the perfect size for a brightening up an entry table or adding some green to your countertop. Bright splashes of color are dabbled around the base and contrast nicely with crisp straight lines and square edges.
