Posted by Dain, Monday, November 13, 2006 3:13 PM (Eastern) I'm thinking of treating myself to one piece of jewelry per month. As my clothes, soon enough, will be very plain, I like the idea of throwing something extravagant and ornate into the mix. ![]() ![]() I want all of them! But just one. It's funny that I chose a pair of earrings. I don't even have pierced ears! I'm really not one to wear jewelry. I thought it was about time to start.

9:16 PM,
Not to enable or anything, but making jewelry is a great hobby. :D You can make a surprising range of pieces using just softflex (which is beading wire, almost as flexible as thread) or jewelry wire.
The ring would be out of the question, but the other two pieces...not that hard to make.
You've got to get your ears pierced!!!!! I went to one of those "Piercing Pagoda" type kiosks at the mall when I was 11. Now I hear it's better to go to a real piercing place...which uses a needle...rather than the mall shops...which use a piercing gun. I've been happy with my gun-pierced lobes but fyi.
One thing you'll need to know is if you have a metal sensitivity. I can't wear 14KT gold or sterling silver earrings, much less the cheaper stuff. I can do 18KT gold but it's $. What I use for my own work is niobium.
