Not just jewellery...
...but a vivid celebration.
BINKABU is a place to celebrate your love for birds. We hand-make illustrative bird earrings and accessories in Brisbane, Australia.
Hi! Maddi here, founder of BINKABU.
Welcome to the flock! This is my whole world - what started out as a hobby for me swiftly became a community of birders and fashionistas alike. I started this venture to create colourful earrings to express my love for birds, my love for bright fashion, my love for handmade and ethically made goods, and my love for quirky outfits and colour. My vision was to create a place to really celebrate the species, educate my customers, and advocate for the proper care of our feathered family members.
This all started in 2019 as a hobby to fuel my thirst for creativity while growing my career as a classical musician. Long story short, I experienced some major burnout in the music industry and had gained some interest in my clay earring designs, and slowly started to pivot my focus towards design. Things moved swiftly, and by the time Tim and I had our daugher Luna in 2021, it was a full time job for us both. Since then, we have achieved some awesome milestones, and seen a huge growth in the business, our skills, our design, our vision, and our team! BINKABU has a flock of six wonderful humans under its wing right now, and we certainly couldn't be here without them.
We have so many goals moving forward, and so many exciting things to show you in the world of BINKABU birds. I hope you stick around to see what we do next!

At our heart, we are passionate about celebrating the unique spirit of our avian friends. I love birds and find that they are an endless source of inspiration. Every one of our designs aims to capture the fabulous colours and character of the species it represents.
That's you.
Of course it's also the birds – we aim to support avian wildlife in any way we can, from education to conservation efforts. But we create earrings with YOU in mind, Wild Thing. We give you the tools for self-expression, for making a statement, for flaunting your wild side.
