Did anyone else play with this toy as a kid? I was absolutely obsessed with it. I remember struggling to keep my excitement for the design I was creating from making my pen wobble and ruining the whole thing. Something about it made me feel like I was working with a force more powerful than myself, like I was tracing the paths of electrons or uncovering mysterious technologies. I know. It's ridiculously nerdy. I was probably around eight years old. Now, here I am 25 years later, making earrings, when I realize I can recreate that design using wire and gems. Even better, I now have the grown-up manual dexterity to make them absolutely perfectly. I am thrilled to present: Spirograph Earrings!
