75 years ago most people pierced their ears at home, young girls going so far as to organize "piercing parties" with their friends; 500 years before that, earrings were the mark of nobility. So while the modern age hasn't brought us the rocket cars we were promised in our youth, we can at least be thankful that the new generation isn't getting together on a Friday night to push hot metal through their earlobes--although they might still put on princely airs from time to time.
The earrings in this series are perfect examples of the quirky, playful, and unique. From retro NES iconography to tiny balls of knitting yarn, there is something here that will please everyone, or perhaps act as inspiration from some guilty-pleasure shopping on Etsy.

Dragon Ear Wrap
DraugaWitcher 10 years ago
those one never work - I believe they would need to be custom made to actually fit and stay on your ear...
JoshPhillips 10 years ago
Anything made to fit around and or in my ear makes me assume my ears are just weird which they might be idc I prefer speakers to headphones

Most ear wraps are easily adjusted with pliers and require no piercings. My Boyfriend's mother loves the ones from the Maryland Ren Fair.

Not impressed with the lack of creativity. These come straight from a chinese wholesaler, and are just repackaged for Etsy. Not cool.

Not impressed with the creativity here because there is none. This is just bought from a chinese wholesaler and resold as is. Not cool.

These don't work if you have fleshy lobes, or are pierced higher up on the lobe. I learned this the hard way.

Snake Ear Wrap
EvelynGrietzeWanhainen 10 years ago
Yes, wich means it wouldn't be as tight, but if you buy the earwrap then fix piercings at the right spots you will not have to make a custom

These don't need to be customized, just fitted with pliers. Most don't even require any piercings. The cuff around the side is the support.
