A little bit about me…

Artist and maker behind The Ear Post, creating handmade earrings inspired by real life in New Zealand

Kia ora, nau mai, haere mai-welcome to my page

Ko Corrina tōku ingoa.

I’m Corrina—a designer, full-time working mum, and someone who uses creativity as a way to make sense of life as it’s happening.

I have a background in 3D Design, but these days my work isn’t about technical perfection—it’s about expression. Creating earrings has become my space to pause, reflect, and turn everyday experiences into something tangible.

How I Create…

Every collection starts the same way—by slowing down.

Before I make anything, I take a moment to reflect. Sometimes it’s a feeling I can’t quite explain yet, sometimes it’s a week that stretched me, or something small that stuck with me longer than expected.

From there, I create.

Not with a fixed plan—but with curiosity. I let colour, shape, and texture take the lead. Resin, clay, wood—whatever feels right in that moment.

Alongside each collection, I share the reflection behind it. Not because it’s polished or profound—but because it’s real.

This is less about “collections” in the traditional sense, and more about capturing moments as they move through me.

The Ear Post is where all of that lives.

You won’t find mass-produced pieces or perfectly repeated designs here. Most collections only have one or two pairs available at a time. When they’re gone, I move forward—just like the moment that inspired them.

It’s a constant cycle of creating, releasing, and evolving.

What This Is Really About…

This isn’t about trends.

It’s about wearing something that feels like you.

Something a little imperfect, a little different—something that holds a story, even if only you understand it.

Because life is busy, messy, beautiful, and constantly changing—and I think the things we wear can reflect that too.

Stay Connected…

If you want to follow along, I share each collection through my blog—along with the thoughts or experiences behind it.

You can subscribe to be notified when something new is released (there’s never a huge drop—just small, intentional releases).

Caring for Your Pieces

Each pair is made to last, using stainless steel findings for durability and comfort.

To keep them looking their best, use the white cleaning cloth provided. Over time, exposure to air can naturally dull the metal—just give it a gentle polish to bring it back.

Thank you for being here—and for supporting something that’s made slowly, honestly, and with intention.

Thank you for supporting my work and choosing to wear something truly unique!
