I had a great experience working with Kay Davis at Tortuga Hobby

I had a great experience working with Kay Davis at Tortuga Hobby. While browsing her wide selection of wooden earrings she mentioned she could customize each pair to my liking. Needless to say I am thrilled with the final result that perfectly match a blue denim jacket. If you appreciate unique, stylish earrings you won’t be disappointed. I’ll be back for more.

I received two pairs of the hand painted earnings shaped as boots.
I love them, they were just the perfect color earnings for my special event!
They both match perfect with both my western and Mexican outfits.

The cutest earrings ever!

I love these little dainty painted wood earrings. They are just the right size to wear every day, anywhere I go. The subtle neutral colors work well with almost anything I wear on any given day. They are light and comfortable, and I love the shinny glow that catches the light.
