Store your earrings on a flat surface in a dry location (not in the bathroom). Avoid using hair spray or other spray products while wearing your earrings. Your DRD YYC styles should be the last thing you put on. Enjoy!!

Dirt Road Designs YYC was born as a passion project stemming from a love of creating and design. My obsession with jewelry drove me to create earrings that were big, bold, versatile, and most importantly – lightweight!! No more pulling on your earlobes!

Dirt Road Designs YYC offers a variety of designs, styles, materials, and sizes. I use locally sourced leather to create beautiful statement earrings, and I have recently started experimenting with a variety of new-to-me materials! Styles and colours change seasonally, so there is always something new to love!

I am originally from Saskatchewan, but I have lived and worked in Banff and Calgary for the past 18 years. I am a teacher by day and maker in my spare time!! I love being outdoors, and the pieces I create are often inspired by the colours of nature, like my Lake Louise earrings! I live in Calgary with my wonderful husband, two dogs, and three cats.

I hope you enjoy Dirt Road Designs YYC styles as much as I enjoy creating them!
