25 Days of Jewelry-Day 4

I never get tired of chainmaille pieces.
This one from CmyDesings is titled "Lab Work". I would seriously not recommend wearing this in a Laboratory. You could get caught in some machine with sharp pokeys and moving metal part things with the grinding and the mechanical noises and then there's beaker breakage and gooey neon liquid spillage and suddenly you're the Incredible Shrinking Woman and now you have this big honkin ass chainmaille necklace that you can no longer wear, but you just had to fucking wear it to the lab today didn't ya?!

Anyways.


Oh look, it's got a matching bracelet!



So she says that it's a one of a kind piece and can be handed down for generations.
Nahuh I don't think so...I'm taking it with me. Watch me.
For $250 they can pry it out of my cold, dead fingers.

And now, a word about our Artist:
Ms Lynn, with her perfect Soccer mom hair can be seen most days leisurely taking her Dingo dog for a stroll, who by the way really ate someones baby; and is sporting a fetching handmade dog lead, completely encrusted in Swarovski crystals created by our very own Lynn.

25 Days of Jewelry-Day 1

So in an effort to promote goodwill and retail sales of my own jewelry and that of friends and whomever else, I have taken it upon myself to give my personal review of 25 different pieces of jewelry and their creator. And yes including my own! It is my blog after all, get your own damn blog if you think it's unfair.

And to demonstrate just how far my favouritism runs...I'll start with one of my own pieces!



The Curly Q Cuff
Every model citizen needs at least one cool ass cuff bracelet and here is my contribution to society. Heavy gauge Sterling Silver, hammered until my ears rang then curled at the ends. Yes it's that simple, course no where in here does it say that I very nearly broke my pliers getting the damn thing curled or that I spent two hours sanding, filing, polishing, buffing and THEN it went into the tumbler for eight hours! No where does it say that anywhere does it?
Well it does now.
Comes in three different sizes with three different prices...it's only fair.
Sm/Petite Wrist $94; Med/Average Wrist $104; Lg/Large Wrist $114
