Black pug, red mushrooms, mossy forest floor. If you've been looking for autumn earrings that aren't pumpkins and aren't spooky, this is the one.
A black pug in a knit fair-isle scarf sits in a sunlit autumn forest with red toadstools, ferns, acorns and a hedgehog wandering through the leaves. Full cottagecore, and that glossy black coat against all the warm rust and gold is what makes it work. It stays in rotation from September right through the first snow.
Each pair is printed on lightweight glossy MDF wood and finished double-sided, so they look just as good coming as going. The gold-tone surgical stainless steel earwires are hypoallergenic and comfortable enough for a full day — no earlobe droop by dinner.
Two sizes:
-
Mini — 1.5": everyday, work, school pickup
-
Large — 2.25": the statement pair people ask about

Common questions
Are these heavy? No — printed wood at 1/8" thick. They're feather-light, which matters if you've given up on statement earrings because they drag.
Will they bother sensitive ears? No. The earwires are hypoallergenic surgical stainless steel — they won't tarnish or turn your ears green.
Is the design on both sides? Yes. Double-sided, so they look finished from every angle.
Are these Halloween earrings? No pumpkins or ghosts on this one — it's a woodland cottagecore scene, so it works all autumn and well past October.
Which size should I get? Mini (1.5") for everyday, Large (2.25") when you want to be noticed. Plenty of people buy both.
Is there a matching necklace? Yes — the same design comes as a teardrop pendant necklace.
Where are they made and how fast do they ship? Handmade at The Painted Pug in Lake Villa, Illinois, and shipped from the USA within 1–5 business days.
