Welcome to Avian Designs -- eco-friendly, up-cycled jewelry for free-spirited women! For a limited time :: FREE SHIPPING (USA only) on select pairs of Avian Designs earrings! No coupon code needed.
At Avian Designs, I use up-cycled materials (thrifted leather jackets, soda & beer cans, and decorative tins) to create unique handmade eco-friendly bohemian jewelry!
So what does up-cycled mean anyway? It means taking something old and repurposing it to make something new! All of the leather/suede I use comes from jackets, pants, etc., mostly found at thrift stores. All of the aluminum comes from collected soda/water/beer cans and the tin from thrifted decorative tins. The feathers come from my beloved backyard chickens and are collected after they naturally fall off the birds on their own (a process known as molting) -- hence being cruelty-free.
Avian Designs' leather earrings double as diffuser jewelry. Simply add a drop of your favorite essential oil to the back of your up-cycled leather earrings and enjoy the benefits of aromatherapy all day long!
I compost and/or recycle scraps as much as possible and primarily reuse shipping materials (which is why your padded mailer probably came from Amazon originally).

Wholesale opportunities available. Please contact me for details.

5 out of 5 starsI bought three pairs of these gorgeous earrings in different colors for the women in my family for Christmas and everyone loved them! The colors are beautiful and they are so lightweight you can't even tell your wearing them! I'm hoping the black comes back in stock soon as I will be getting some for myself :)

5 out of 5 starsThe earrings are super cute! They are a perfect size to be noticeable but not overwhelming and are so lightweight they will be easy to wear all day. Amy is great to work with - she is quick to reply to emails and delivery time was speedy.

5 out of 5 starsIt was ship on time. They are a little thinner than I thought but I love the fact that they are made from recycle material. I'm allergic to some types of earrings but so far I'm good with this ones. Thank you!!

5 out of 5 starsThese earrings are well-made. They are large enough to make a statement, but they are very light, so my ears don’t feel weighed down.
I’d love to order many more so I’ve got color choices! -

About AvianDesigns
-
I'm Amy, the artist and designer behind Avian Designs, wearing a pair of my upcycled leather earrings.
-
My aluminum can earrings come from soda & beer cans, like this Monster Energy drink. Edges are filed smooth for safety.
-
Earrings are carefully packaged and come tied up with a bow.
-
Here are some of my chickens having a treat in the yard. I collect their feathers once they've fallen out naturally.
-
Add a drop of your favorite essential oil to the back of our upcycled leather earrings and they become mini diffusers!
My name is Amy and I live with my family in beautiful Colorado. My store name -- Avian Designs -- comes from a combination of my children's names and, of course, the word avian also means "relating to birds."
My shop is all about up-cycling -- using materials from an old item to make something completely new!
We have several backyard chickens that I affectionately refer to as "my girls" from whom I gather most of the feathers for my jewelry. I wait until the feathers molt (fall out naturally) and then collect them.
In addition to working with feathers, I also enjoy creating up-cycled jewelry from leather and suede clothing that I find in thrift shops, as well as soda and beer cans that friends from around the country save and give to me.
I love art and creating and enjoy putting together unique earrings.
If you have an idea for some earrings, but don't see them listed, please contact me. I'd be happy to talk with you about creating custom earrings just for you!
Let's keep in touch!

If they become ruffled, simply smooth them out between your fingers.

I look forward to working with you to create something amazing! Thank you.
