Playful accessories for cat lovers
Some accessories are made to blend in. Kailie Peters’ Curious Cats are made to start a conversation. These playful feline designs bring a little humour and a lot of personality to earrings and brooches, making them a lovely find for anyone who likes to wear their cat-loving heart on their sleeve.
Curious Cats brings together stud earrings, dangle earrings and brooch styles, with Kailie’s curious little black cat at the heart of the designs. Ginger cats and a grey tabby add more feline variety.
From cats floating beneath balloons to tiny mermaid cats, this is wearable art that embraces the unexpected. The appeal is in the small stories each design tells, not simply in adding a cat silhouette to an accessory.
Our aim is to bring you cat accessories that are "meowt" of this world! - Kailie Peters
Handcrafted acrylic cat earrings and brooches
The Curious Cats pieces featured here are made from acrylic around 4mm thick. That gives the designs scope for colour, shape and layered detail without the appearance of heavy metal jewellery. Check individual product weights and dimensions if those matter to you, as comfort is personal.
The black-cat-and-balloon earrings pair curious white eyes with bright little balloons, creating a cheerful design that would be fun against a plain top.
The kissing-booth design takes the storytelling further, with black cats, red hearts and striped booths. It’s a sweet choice of theme for a cat-loving friend who appreciates a little visual humour.
For something more fantastical, the mermaid cats combine black feline faces with shimmering blue-green tails and shell-shaped studs. Tiny cats with mermaid tails? Absolutely.
The plant-pot cats feel especially at home in a collection for design-conscious cat lovers. Black cats peek out from pink pots, framed by green leaves: a little nod to two favourite household obsessions.
Curious Cats also includes brooch designs. A brooch offers another way to enjoy the artwork if earrings aren’t your thing, whether pinned to a jacket, cardigan or bag. Check current listings to see which styles and formats are offered.
Styling Curious Cats wearable art
Let the accessory do the talking. A plain knit, simple shirt or favourite dress gives a detailed pair of cat earrings room to stand out. Pick up one colour from the design elsewhere in your outfit if you enjoy a coordinated look, or keep everything else neutral.
If you’re choosing a gift, think about how the recipient actually wears jewellery. A dramatic dangle design might delight someone who loves statement pieces, while a stud or brooch could suit a different wardrobe. Check fastening materials, dimensions and any metal sensitivities before selecting a piece.
The best choice is often the one that reminds you of the person, or their cat. A black-cat design has obvious appeal for someone sharing their home with a miniature panther, but a whimsical theme can be just as personal.
About Kailie Peters, the Curious Cats creator
Kailie Peters Wearable Art brings playful feline designs to life through carefully designed, cut and assembled acrylic accessories.
Kailie began creating earrings in 2019, selling her work online and building a following of customers who loved her designs. After three years of growing the business, she explored acrylic as a new medium. It opened up more creative possibilities and became a direction she wanted to pursue.
As the business grew, Kailie’s husband Kyron joined her full-time. That maker-led story is part of the appeal: these accessories have a distinctive point of view, with humour and feline curiosity running through the collection.
