About
Hi there! Thank you for visiting my web store! I'm the Maeve behind À la Maeve. I'm from Cork, Ireland. I started making earrings in November 2021 and I haven't stopped since. I have always loved being creative and expressing myself through art, and when I finally decided to try out polymer clay - I fell in love. So much thought, love and care goes into every single pair of earrings I make.
I offer unique, elegant, high-quality handmade earrings. All pairs are made using polymer clay and I will only use hypoallergenic components. All earring posts and hoops are either gold-plated, silver-plated or rhodium-plated. While they may not look it, they are surprisingly lightweight.
For me, jewellery has always been a mode of expression and an extension of myself. When I originally started making earrings, it was my intention to simply make some pairs for myself to match my spirit and complement my outfits. I always had difficulty wearing earrings as my ears are super sensitive, so I wanted to make earrings that felt comfortable to wear. As I began crafting, I discovered the endless opportunities I had with this medium, and I completely sank myself into creating jewellery.
I am so grateful to all of you who have supported me on this journey, it means the world to me. It brings me so much joy to think of all the people who have picked up a pair of my earrings in the past year, who have given my earrings a home. Every review, comment and message has been beyond encouraging. My aim is to keep providing earrings for you all to love.
