The Trend Tonic Story

Hi, I'm Kerry Clayton. Since 2019, I've been making custom cork earrings to make ears happy. I'd love to create the perfect bespoke pair for you too but first, I'd love to tell you my story, don't worry I'll make it brief!

I was born with Ehler-Danlos Syndrome, a connective tissue disorder that causes daily pain. As someone that is constantly uncomfortable I wanted to create a range of earrings that offered mood boosting bright colours and patterns whilst also being hypoallergenic and lightweight.

After months of research I chose and fell in love with cork leather. A lightweight, durable and sustainable alternative to plastic based faux and animal leather. Cork offers the wearer the robustness of animal leather with the fun colours of faux leather without any of the negative environmental effects.

Colour plays an important part in my life, I trained as a colour advisor and truly believe wearing the right colours to suit you can have a drastic improvement on your mood and overall appearance. Wearing your perfect colours as close to your face is best too so earrings are the ideal place to start!

Thats enough about me, I love a chat though so feel free to send me a message!

On to the best bit...SHOPPING!
