Meet the Maker

Hi, I’m Sarah—the maker behind The Painted Pug. What started as a late-night creative escape turned into a thriving handmade brand filled with fun, meaningful jewelry and giftable goods. Every piece is designed and handmade right here in Illinois with care (and often a little pug supervision from Jax & Gracie 🐾). Whether you’re shopping for yourself or someone special, I hope our pieces add a little joy to your day.

Fall Earrings, Handmade in Illinois

When the weather turns, so does your jewelry drawer. Our fall earrings lean into the good stuff — pumpkins, sunflowers, gnomes, fall leaves, buffalo plaid, and warm rust and bronze glitter — printed on lightweight acrylic and double-sided MDF wood so they never drag your earlobes down by 2pm. If you gave up on dangles because they hurt, start with our lightweight dangle earrings or our hypoallergenic styles for sensitive ears. Prefer something subtle? Our stud earrings start at $10.

Game Day Earrings for Football Season

Saturdays and Sundays are handled. Our football earrings and full game day collection come in team-color combos that work whether you are in the stands or on the couch — plus mascot and school spirit earrings for teachers, team moms, and the whole booster club.

Halloween Earrings That Aren’t Too Spooky

Our Halloween earrings are the wearable kind: ghosts, glitter pumpkins, witch hats, and spooky gnomes you can pair with a cardigan on a Tuesday. Want the whole look? Add a matching necklace or a fall graphic tee or sweatshirt.

Gifts She’ll Actually Wear

Most of our earrings land between $10 and $18, which makes them the easy answer for teacher gifts, hostess gifts, and stocking stuffers. Grab a bundle or gift set and let us do the coordinating. Everything ships from Illinois in 1–5 business days, orders over $50 ship free, and we have 7,000+ 5-star reviews from women who came for one pair and came back for six.
