What materials are used for your earrings?
Most of my earrings are crafted from epoxy resin. Additionally, I offer items made from semi-precious gemstones and crystals.
What type of resin do you utilize?
I use a two-part epoxy resin that is low in VOCs, emits minimal odor, and doesn’t yellow over time. It's also non-flammable.
Could you explain your process?
In crafting resin jewelry, I use molds and color the resin using mica powder, alcohol ink, and/or acrylic paint. Following the removal of pieces from molds, they often require some finishing touches such as sanding and occasional polishing before being transformed into jewelry.
Why choose resin?
From an artistic perspective, resin offers an intriguing and enjoyable medium to work with. On a personal level, I appreciate resin for its lightweight nature and vibrant, lively colors.
For your gemstone jewelry, what types of beads do you use?
Our gemstone jewelry features semi-precious gemstones, natural stones, and/or Czech crystal, offering a timeless elegance.
I have sensitive ears. Can I wear your earrings?
Absolutely! Our earring hooks are hypoallergenic and coated in 925 silver. If by chance they cause any discomfort, we're happy to replace the earring hooks with either sterling silver or gold (additional costs may apply).
You may also special order different earrings hooks. (additional costs may apply).
How long have you been making jewelry?
My interest in making jewelry sparked during my teenage years. After exploring it briefly, I pursued other interests. My interest was rekindled while dating my husband, thanks to my future sister-in-law who introduced me to the exquisite Très Jolie jewelry brand. I made jewelry as gifts for family and friends for a few years, then paused to focus on raising my family. Now, with my youngest child at seven years old, I’ve reignited this passion, turning it into a business to share my love with others.
Are you open to creating custom pieces?
Absolutely! I adore crafting custom pieces. If it's within my capacity to create, I'm more than willing to do so. Let’s start the conversation! You can either fill out the custom order form or send me a message.
What inspired the creation of Foxey Dots?
Earrings are my absolute favorite accessory. I find myself drawn to them whenever I spot a display for sale.
Foxey Dots emerged from my frustration of struggling to find earrings I loved at a price point I found reasonable. My aim is to offer earrings that are fun, lightweight, comfortable for all-day wear, and most importantly, affordable.
