Celebrate the season sustainably with our Holiday Trashy Earrings Collection: a one-of-a-kind, handcrafted set made entirely from recycled beach debris collected along the shores of Berrien County, Michigan.
Each piece is sifted, sorted, cleaned, shredded, and molded by hand into lightweight, colorful statement earrings that tell a story.
These limited holiday editions capture the beauty of the Great Lakes while reminding us that even the smallest cleanup effort makes a difference. Once microplastics enter our waters, they’re almost impossible to remove, but every pair you wear helps start a conversation about keeping our beaches clean.
