WHAT IS ICKYNICKS?
Ickynicks is an online jewelry shop that specializes in Ultra Thin Jewelry.
WHAT DO YOU CREATE?
We handcraft unique hoops, earrings, gauge earrings, ear cuffs, and bracelets. We make jewelry in gold, sterling silver, and stainless
steel.
IS ICKYNICKS JEWELRY MADE IN THE USA?
All of our jewelry items are handcrafted in the United States. We do not design anything
that we would not wear ourselves. In fact, we typically make
the first design or prototype and test it out on family, friends and
co-workers.
WHAT IS THE STORY BEHIND 'ICKYNICKS'?
"The Ickynicks website is
named in honor of the many wonderful women who have influenced my life. My Aunt
Nancy was my first and only aunt to go to college. She graduated with a Master's Degree in Languages and then taught high school Spanish. While my Aunt
Nancy was attending Kent State University, she and her three girlfriends tried
to join on-campus girls' clubs and sororities, but were rejected by
all of them. Feeling isolated and shunned, these four young women fought back
by creating their own club and called themselves, the Ickynicks. The purpose of
their club was to travel outside the United States. These four adventurous
young women traveled to South America, Europe and Canada during their college
years."
