From the North Shore of Oahu come these colorful earrings created from recycled bottlecaps. (even though earrings are pictured, most designs are available as necklaces, magnets or lapel pins.) Take a look at the site, the workmanship is top-notch and the colors are playful. In addition, the artists offer the service to create bottle caps from your custom designs. How fun would that be???

1% of the profits from Aloha Bottle Cap Earrings is contributed to The Adelante Foundation. They fund micro loans to women living in extreme poverty in Honduras.
