Andrea Gabhart's WoodWear jewelry is revolutionizing the way we live sustainable lifestyles. Using the leftover wood chips and scraps from her father's custom laser wood cutout business, the eco-friendly young woman has created a stunning line of jewelry -- mostly earrings -- that are simple yet stylish.
The WoodWear jewelry line carries a wide variety of styles, shapes and colors of earrings. Their lightweight and natural material makes for an easy-wearing earring that can be worn all day without irritating your ears. From simple hoops to beautifully-patterned teardrop earrings to cute animal cut-outs, these one-of-a-kind earrings make it easy to maintain an updated and eco-friendly look.
