Shop: Green Tree Jewelry Why We Love It: It is unintentionally "big cat" theme week here at FMF. Hence the the two sets of big cat earring featured up front. However, this shop has a lot more to offer than cats of all sizes. These laser cut wooden earrings range from fun swirling designs to intricate peacocks. Best of all, the earrings I've featured here today all cost only $12.95. (Although the shop sells some other higher priced goods). Price Range: $12.95 - $79.95 Links: Facebook Favorite Items: Click through the slideshow below to see some favorite items.
