MUM’A NAI | ‘Simple Love Collection -Colossal Charms' (Yellow) | Screenprint on upcycled material

"Anyone that knows me, knows I absolutely love BIG earrings! Just not a fan of the weight that comes with it a lot of the time… So, I created a line of earrings, mixing and matching off cuts of leather, screen printed material and hessian, acrylic and coffee on canvas, merged with embroidery to create light weight wearable art! These are all handmade, using a very sustainable arts practice with at least 80% of resources up-cycled. Enjoy your sustainable bling… and have a beautiful day. Much love, Mum’a Nai"
