The 2026 Earring Challenge
Share
If you are on Instagram, you might have been following the #7in7earrings challenge, founded by Aisha Lockridge of AishaLikesIt.com
This challenge is entirely self-driven, we show up because we want to, and if some days we can't quite get a pair done, nobody is holding us accountable but ourselves. I have participated in every year but two, and I love the opportunity to play, (at a really condensed rate of speed, yes) but that helps me to say "I'm going to give myself an entire week to PLAY". This year I went big, and very whimsical, so it might not be your cup of tea, but know that it freed something up in me to find joy at the bench, and to cheer for other earring makers. I'm in it for the community. So fun!
I've just listed the pairs that are available, and the sold earrings will be moved to my archive so you can see each day (linked below). I hope you'll take a look and if you're on Instagram, search that hashtag for others who participated. Many are selling their earrings, too.
Day Three: Blue Jay and Peanut
Day Five: Honeycombs and Lavender
Day Six: The Sun, Moon, and Stars
