Not only is this a great looking pendant but you're helping a great organization through its purchase:

"The Joyful Heart Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to the recovery of rape and sexual assault survivors through the “total healing” of the mind, body and spirit."

I have purchased a few as gifts over the years and wear one myself. Love this.

"You don't want it. He can't have it back."

This is my new favorite thing ever. Oh. My. God. It's like Ebay but for "ex"bling. You can buy or sell jewelry given by exes- and read the story that accompanies each piece's past or post yours. I. Love. This. Site.

FANCY : Text Ring

2 people recommended this item

Description

With this ring, I thee shed......

Life doesn't always go as planned. (She says, while reaching over to take a sip of a giant martini that is being used to medicate the memory of the last few months.....).

Might as well have some fun with the bumps.

I bought this for myself because, well, because why the hell not! And I LOVE IT!!!

You can choose either a matte or mirror finish and best of all- not only can you order the text shown here, but you can actually submit your OWN words for engraving as well. Cool, cool, cool.

Raw and messy, Dirty Librarian's Chain necklaces would be the perfect accessory for, oh, sweaty activities that take place against a wall. Or over a table.

I just bought the gazing pendant. Yep. Just this second. That's how fast and hard I fell in love with this designer's work. Check out the site. It will speak better about her craft than I could at the moment. I'm too busy giving the picture of my new purchase little kisses. I looooove it.

Check out the artist's blog at http://midgesmind.blogspot.com/
Also, watch out for her Have a Heart Pendant to benefit the Susan B Komen Breast Cancer Foundation

HOOKER MEDALLIONS

First to recommend

Description

Corey Helford is a lady I'd like to knock a few martinis back with.

Not only is she a talented artist and jewelry designer but she has the cojones to unabashedly use hookers as her prime subject matter in a way that balances the obvious sensationalism with a certain elegance. If there is such a thing as slutty dignity- and I tend to think there most certainly is, at least in the proper lighting lol- then she's nailed it.

Why do I think that's great? Because when the hell is the last time you saw hooker art on a pendant? I mean, have you EVER? I haven't. And I am so thirsty for design (pardon the pun in advance) that ventures "outside the box" that I want to celebrate it at every opportunity.

The thought "I wish I had a hooker medallion" has never crossed my mind. Until today. Now I want one. Really want one. Do I think they're demeaning to women? No. The contrary. Just my opinion, but I believe that by utilizing the subject with her "Yeah, so they're hookers. So what?" attitude she humanizes a group of women that many of us have stripped of identities and reduced to a stereotype. Her subjects exude power in my eyes. Now, I wouldn't feel this way if they were 16-year-olds out on the street. But these women very much look like they want to be where they are. They used their freedom of choice. So they're hookers? So what.

Love these. Never would have thought I would but I do. As for the above rant, perhaps I'm overthinking it just to justify the purchase. Eh, so what. Bottom line? These are cool.

Celtic Slave Bracelet/Ring

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

Lovely pewter adjustable set.

Adjustable bracelets are not meant to be repeatedly "opened and closed", or "loosened and tightened".

The normal procedure is to set the bracelet so that it fits loosely around your wrist (but doesn't fall off) and so you can easily remove the bracelet by turning your wrist sideways and sliding it through the opening of the bracelet (the area where the two ends DO NOT meet). The bracelet should not be adjusted so tightly so that the ends of the bracelet touch or do not allow you to slide your wrist through to remove it. Once you've got your bracelet properly adjusted to your wrist, there shouldn't be any need for additional repeated adjustments.

Numerous adjustments of the bracelet will cause stress fractures in the metal and will cause the metal to crack. Once the metal cracks, there's not much you can do to fix the bracelet, and it's possible it will eventually snap in half. This is not a defect in the structure of the bracelet, it is caused by the stress of multiple "openings" and "closings" which aren't normally necessary with this style of bracelet.

So remember, just set it and forget it. Slide your wrist in through the opening, admire how lovely it looks on you, and then when you're done, slide your wrist out of the same opening. Hopefully this additional information will allow you to enjoy your bracelet for a long time, without any breakage in the metal.
