This is a part of my personal collection (we're talking about the bracelet now, although I do consider my arm to be somewhat personal as well), designed by me, for me, never to be repeated for anybody else (although I may be talked around on that last point, talk backed up with money, that is). It wasn't particularly difficult to make, but I won't tell you how I made it - not because I'm protecting my trade secrets or whatnot... but because I am the worst person in the world at giving directions. Sure, during my days as a check-out chick at the local supermarket nobody actually came back to tell me off for giving them dodgy directions to where ever it was that they thought that I looked like I'd know how to get to, but I strongly suspect that this is because after following my advice they were too hopelessly lost to ever find their way back to the supermarket.
Anyway, yes, the bracelet. It does up with two toggle clasps, if anybody's interested in the nitty gritty details. I wear it everywhere and have the white untanned patch on my arm to prove it. Maybe tomorrow I'll have a go at photographing the jewellery I wear on my other arm. This whole photographing only one arm at a time thing has nothing to do with the photographing only one side of my face at a time thing... it's just I need the other arm to hold the camera.
And finally, this has got to be quote of the day:
Puss Daddy on the Etsy Etc. forum: "I am surprised no one has crocheted or knitted up a toilet plunger cozy yet. Usually if an item will stand still long enough someone will cozy it up."
edit to add: I've edited some font and colour type things, please let me know if there's anything that's particularly garish or painful to the eye. I understand that not everybody thinks that black, purple and green is the greatest colour scheme of all time.

That bracelet is gorgeous. I don't blame you one bit for keeping it for yourself or for wearing it everyday.
lol. That's a hilarious quote. I missed that one.
love the bracelet
and thoroughly enjoying your writing style
have to say....the black/white is hard to read though
Yeah that Puss Daddy comes out with some great comments on the etsy forum!
Hey that photo from your previous post reminds me of the cover art from the Belle & Sebastian CD "fold your hands...blah blah...can't now remember the rest of the title" but I'm guessing you're maybe not a fan of twee pop kinda music anyways :)
