WOW what fun - custom earrings !

One of the best bits about having a physical shop is meeting wonderful, like-minded and interesting people.

One such person was Keri – a lovely lady travelling in the Hunter valley from Torquay in Victoria.  She visited the Wally and Eva shop in June and we got chatting about various things and then she asked if we do custom creations as she wanted to have earrings of the logo for a group she belongs to.  The answer was YES 😊.

When an email arrived a short time later we set about designing her earrings.

Keri is a member of WOW (Wednesday Ocean Waders), a group she has belonged to since 2021. They have proved an incredibly supportive community who provided her with the kindness and support she needed last year when she suffered a personal tragedy.

WOW was started in 2021 by Jo Halley who invited people via Torquay community social media to join her for a brisk morning ocean dip as part of cold water therapy.  They started meeting on Wednesdays and became WOW.  Now a much larger group takes a dip EVERY SINGLE DAY !

Keri supplied me with the logo. I created some draft designs then moved on to creating some prototypes. Keri selected 'winner' and it was now production time.

I went to work creating multiple sets for some of the amazing and inspiring members of this beautiful group. I had such an awesome time designing and making these and they turned out really great.

I was even lucky enough to get some pics of the finished results being modelled by these gorgeous ladies !

I’m so thrilled I was able to be a little part of such a great community group.

Thanks to Keri for such a truly enjoyable project and to everyone at WOW !

They are doing an amazing job helping people to find community connections. If you are in the area you can get in touch with them through facebook.

If you have an idea for your own project get in touch with us - we'd love to hear from you.
