Braille earrings on Etsy (self.Blind)
submitted by Bibliosworm
My best friend has a young daughter with CVI (amongst other things) due to a stroke. She’s just started an Etsy shop selling earrings with Braille pressed into them. The current stock is Valentine’s Day themed, so I thought I’d share the link here in case anyone is looking for a gift idea. If you want them customized with a specific word, I’m sure she’d be happy to hear from you. $1

Please ask her to consider braille stamped rings, or cuffs and bracelets. I think having a piece of tactile jewelry near the fingers would allow the wearer to enjoy the piece, as well as the viewer.

That’s a lovely idea. I’ll pass it on. It’s a brand new endeavor for her, but she very creative and I’m sure she’ll love having new ideas to experiment with.

Hi! Out of interest, where does the store ship to?

Because they are just starting out, they’re currently limited to the US. If you would like to message the owner, they have a great response time.

Hey, if you want something similar I used Elegant Insights once before and they worked out well. They have all sorts of Braille charms and tactile charms.

So cool! I'm getting these for my sighted GF. I know she'd love

Nice timing. I think there might be a discount code active: OPEN2021. I’m not sure if that was just for yesterday or if it’s still good, but you can give it a try. She’s also got free shipping for orders of 3.
