Did you make something? Do you want the fleeting rush of endorphins that come with affirmation from strangers? Do you think what you made is neat? Share it here!

Paintings, movies, music, drawings, models, gardens, houses, snowmen, sandcastles - if you made it, you can post it.

RULES:

Some things you make are not to be shared. These include:

Do not be a jerk.

- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, classism, or bigotry of any kind.

- Don't try to sell stuff unless people ask. You can post your Etsy (or similar) if someone prompts you. No spamming self-promotion.

Solid copper again, but the stones are just colored CZ this time. If you look closely you can still barely see the lines I made to mark center.

Oh, and I set these stones entirely with hand tools. Not sure why, that’s just how things panned out lol

When I saw this as a thumbnail I thought I was looking at some strange beige snake with 2 toned eyes...

On closer inspection though, it's a beautiful piece of jewelry. Is it for yourself or a significant other, or a commission?

Thank you very much! This one was just for me, but soon I’ll be working with (at least semi) precious metals, and those I’ll be trying to sell! ^^

Sounds interesting, be sure to share your bling rings with us. Do you have plans for other jewelry or are you sticking to rings for now?

I have made a couple pieces of septum jewelry! They’re karet gold, obviously I’m not putting copper in my nose hahaha

I’m considering posting the more recent one, but it’s in a semi-perpetual state of refinement at the moment. I’m not quite happy with how low it hangs, but I’m being intensely lazy about drawing out more wire to change it lol

Copper Rings are discouraged because they may cause diarrhea...

Joke's on you, I get plenty of diarrhea without any rings! Who's the smart guy with interesting "discharge" facts now???
