not sure if this counts, but i do a sideline in jewelery making, ignore the bracelet, thats just bits i had hanging around in my bitz box, the necklace i made using cultured/dyed teardrops of mother of pearl. i made these for my girlfriend for valentines day.
i also made my ring and necklace, the tooth was a fossil on a beach in australia that i stood on, and it went into my foot, just about up to the root! after the surgeon removed it, he asked if i wanted to keep it... i still have the scar on my foot!
I made the ring from the stone in another ring from the dominican republic (larrimar...the type of stone), and a silver ring from mexico, (i went travelling before university and picked all this stuff up on my way round the world
)
and thats my initials and dob etched into it
my gramps has always been into his handy work (he rebuilds ww2 fighterplanes) and i got to play around in his workshop to make it
i'll have to get some wips of him at work on his laterst rebuild, a mossie light bomber
