I absolutely love finding great companies that have wonderful products. I must admit that when I first saw Waffles & Honey, I was in awe and had to look at a huge part of their website before I could do anything else. I was so excited to try out the Whitwell Earrings in Chalcedony.
About Waffles & Honey:
Waffles and Honey Jewelry was founded by designer Karina Harris and named after her beloved childhood pets. It was created in the Fall of 2013 after Karina’s passion for collecting and designing jewelry grew into a small business.
Her passion began when the San Francisco native first stepped into her local bead store. In her late teens, she then went to explore South America, Africa, and Asia, where she was inspired by the textiles, jewelry and designs she discovered there.
Waffles & Honey Jewelry has become a reflection of Karina’s travels, and the confident, eclectic women who inspire her. Each of the stones and quality metal in the jewelry have been hand selected.

Being out and about and having kids I am always trying to find a way to make sure that we can listen to music. I love that we all now have smartphones and that it is now easier than ever to have music right at our fingertips. With the girls, they want to listen to music just like I do. Once we get a new one we are always listening to it in the car and singing on the karaoke machine when we’re home. I find it hard to be able to have the music loud enough for the girls to hear as well and to be able to have it hands free and not attached with wires. The new bluetooth speakers from Turcom are amazing.
