Spoon themed earrings with the chronic illness community in mind, because a few extra spoons always comes in handy!


The chronic illness community uses the “spoon” theory to describe impacts of everyday activities on energy levels.

In the theory, each spoon represents a finite unit of energy. Healthy people may have an unlimited supply of spoons, but people with chronic illnesses have to ration them just to get through the day. Spoon theory has become a shorthand for chronically ill people to explain how they're feeling and coping day-to-day.
