My Story
During lockdown in 2020, I was struggling to stay indoors and needed a creative hobby to distract myself from my anxiety and give myself a creative outlet. I started researching polymer clay and become obsessed. I quickly realized how amazing it would be to create my own earrings, ones that don't even exist. After a few months of constant research and practicing, I opened an Etsy shop and named it Charrings... A mix between charlie and earrings... I know, creative haha! ​
​
After a full year of Charrings, I was still fully in love with creating earrings, so I made it my mission for this to become my full time job. I was forever jumping between full time jobs from accounts, admin, receptionist and many other roles. I could never find a job i really enjoyed and hated being controlled by nasty management.
I spent 8am-5pm working full time, then worked on Charrings every evening and all weekend every weekend. After 3 years, I finally decided to quit my full time job and attempt to pursue a career with Charrings. I can truely say it has been the best decision I have ever made. I had a lot of people in my life tell me it was a terrible decision, but I believed in myself and cut those people out of my life, including my own parents.
​
I am incredibly proud of the community I have created, especially on social media. I have met some amazing women online from customers to fellow small business owners. I absolutely love creating jewellery as a full time job and have many plans for the growth of Charrings, I would love to open shops and have our earrings known worldwide.​ Who knows what the future will bring, but I'm excited to find out!
