The forging process adds to their charm, giving each ring a one-of-a-kind design that ensures you won't find another like it.

Guitar String Rings

All music lovers are going to love guitar string rings. These men wedding bands are not only stylish but also incorporate actual guitar strings into their design.And if you're concerned about sustainability, don't worry. These rings often use recycled metals like silver or gold, so you can rock your unique style while being environmentally conscious. The use of repurposed strings gives these rings a special character and a personal touch.

Opal Rings

Looking for a stunning alternative to traditional gemstones? Opal rings are the way to go. Many opals used in jewelry are actually lab-created, which is great news for the environment. By minimizing the impact of mining, these lab-created opals offer the same breathtaking play of color as natural opals.

For those who want to make an eco-friendly statement, wooden rings are a fantastic choice. Especially if they're made from reclaimed or sustainably sourced wood. These rings often combine other materials like recycled metals or even inlays of other sustainable materials. They're lightweight, unique, and symbolize a deep connection to nature.

So if you're looking for a ring that's as special as you are and reflects your love for the environment, a wooden ring is the way to go.

Tungsten Rings

Tungsten rings for men are known for being super strong and durable. And a lot of men’s tungsten wedding bands are actually made from recycled tungsten, so they're eco-friendly too. How cool is that? Because they're so tough, you won't have to replace or fix them as often, which is great for the environment. Plus, a tungsten ring can handle everyday wear and tear like a champ.

Supernova 7 band in “My Universe” music video

The new band Supernova 7 that we’ve heard from Guy’s remix of “My Universe” consists of 7 aliens designed by Aaron Sims based on the notes by  Dave Meyers that sescribes them all as “a band of funky misfits”. [x] Their names are Blaze, Eko, Loop & Switch, Kasio Mars, Dorean Delorean, and  Angel Moon!

Kasio Mars

Kasio, played by Larry Balboa, “is the fashionable frontman of the bad. More of a humanoid with super big ears (or a they horns?).” [x]

Larry in his special make-up

Concept art of the character

“He has luscious long locks of hair. He’s kind of cocky and loves center stage, mostly singing, but will occasionally play his bizarre large string/chime/xylo instrument.” [x]

That bizzare guitar, according to the director’s idea, is a recycled alien weapon; such type of the instruments are played by the whole band! “We embraced a “cheap and cheerful” approach, utilizing found objects like fake knives, toy guns and Nerf shooters. These inexpensive props were simply glued together and then unified by some colorful paint and wrapped fabrics.” [x]

Eko

This character, played by Lizeth San Martin, Eko is a “humanoid alien with an alternative/aloof/grunge vibe to her.” [x]

Lizeth in a special make-up

Concept art of the character

“Facial markings, piercings, and lots of metal jewelry. She’s kind of goth and emo and jams on her electronic piano-like- instrument fashioned from a disused six-foot long ionic blaster.” [x]

Angel Moon

Mariajo in a special make-up

Angel Moon, played by actress and model Mariajo Navarro, is “an angelic, translucent and luminescent alien. She literally glows with purity and kindness.” [x]

We are already familiar with her as her first appearance was at the very end of “Higher Power” music video, created by designer Karl Lindberg!

According to the designer, Angel “floats, never touching the ground. She is known for her delicate, architectural fashion, and plays a dainty unique wind instrument that almost looks like a piece of modern art or a flute-like musical prop, which was actually just an off-the-shelf Güiro, a Latin-American percussion instrument.” [x]

Blaze

Played by actor Rober Gómez, “Blaze is a tree-dwelling alien who loves to dance. His fur is yellow and purple and his eyes stick out on either side of his face like a chameleon. He’s got a chill, groovy vibe and plays the hell out of his maracas.” [x]

Blaze, Concept art of the character

Dorean Delorean

Dorean, puppeteered by actor Daniel Delgado, is “a muscular, imposing robot with an intense stare / glare that he channels into furiously intense percussion playing. His instruments are made from recycled bombs, communication dishes and various salvaged spaceship parts.”  [x]

Dorean Delorean concept art

“The goal was to make Dorean Delorean look heavy but in the end it only weighed five kilograms (11 lbs.) so that we could have the actor in there puppeteer the character without needing too many breaks.” [x]

Person that puppetteered Dorean Delorean

Loop & Switch

Loop and Switch are entirely CGI-created characters, “a combination of tiny gnomes with platypus faces and furry arms and robot feet like they were created in a lab. They bounce up and down on their shared instrument — a multi-tiered chime system.” [x]

Loop & Switch

Actors playing Kasio Mars, Neon Moon, Eko, and Blaze from Supernova 7 are in the outfits created by EMIDENIS studio! [x]

Pink prototypes for Planned Parenthood fundraising. I'll make up a bunch of samples and bring them around to some offices, give some to staffers to wear, and post them on eBay, so that the donation goes directly to Planned Parenthood. I'll offer celebrity strings as armatures, because I have them. I might use several kinds of pink beads, but I like these and they're the right color. I want to look at *good* crystal beads, as well. The ones I got before fade. Also, maybe pink wire to wrap?

Emo

A collection, aptly entitled Collective, summed up their duration on Tooth & Toenail, chronicling their slow-moving transition from hefty steel to emo rock. By the time of their Nitro Records debut, (stavz' a' ker), the band had actually totally transitioned right into an emo band. There's been a reasonable bit of conventional press rate of interest displayed in this band (Kerrang, Steel Hammer, et al.) and also it's simple to see why. They have a recognisable picture, an interesting noise however within the preferred emo mould, and have both youth and experience on their side. I'm not sure what it is, but it seems like they're a 50/30/20 mix of Kutless, Anberlin, as well as every other emo-alterna-punk band I have actually ever listened to.

Cowpunk.

The following are descriptions of a few of one of the most common punk designs, categorized alphabetically. Some punks got Tees or plaid flannel tee shirts and created political mottos, band names or other punk-related expressions on them with marker pens. While this was not without criterion in the 1970s, the deepness as well as detail of these mottos were not fully established up until the 1980s. Silkscreened Tee shirts with band logo designs or various other punk-related logo designs or mottos were also preferred.

The Layer are the newly rubbed face of emo, a completely mainstream as well as radio-ready pop/rock band furnished with just enough of the signifiers of a presently trafficable subculture to offer the quartet a hint of street cred. In the late '90s and early 21st century, there were "nu steel" and "emo," both of which included great deals of hardcore-esque yelling combined with the typical metals (hefty guitar riffs, compelling drumming, and so on). While both new categories were the "metal style of selection" for several an agitated teen everywhere, few of these bands were female-fronted. One of the exceptions are the Belton, Texas quintet, Flyleaf, led by diminutive singer Lacey Mosley. Both Death Taxi for Cutie as well as the Dismemberment Plan are indie rock/emo bands.

Throughout the late 2010s, a blend genre called emo rap ended up being mainstream, with a few of emo rap's most well-known artists consisting of XXXTentacion and also Lil Peep. Its quick surge in appeal in the very early 2000s influenced a reaction, with bands such as My Chemical Romance and Panic!

For a more womanly design, get an over-sized Tees and also pair it with fishnet stockings or high socks, boots, and also precious jewelry.

Standard Goth (or Trad Goth) is a term defining the aesthetic that reflects the timeless as well as original looks of Goth from the 1980s.

Just introduced myself to Aphrodite

I set up a little altar on top of my dresser, in front of my mirror and jewelry box and a vase of dried flowers. The altar was: my libation cup, a string of plastic white pearls, a shell that I had offered to her in libation earlier that day, a necklace with a pendant of two interlocked hearts, a fancy china teacup (passed down from my grandmother or possibly great grandmother) as an improvised second libation cup, and my tarot cards (a deck of recycled-paper playing cards) spread in front. I veiled with a light pink flower-patterned scarf (I got it from Italy, when I went there a few years back) in a traditional style (semi, I think. It's the one pomegranateandivy did a tutorial on) and wore a knitted shawl that was a gift from my grandmother. Libations were tap water, sun/moon water, & a couple drops of rose oil, and a pinch of cardamom bath salts. I used my ouranic prayer beads (passed down from my non religious mother; my grandfather brought them back from the Middle East/Mediterranean area. Not sure specifically where). I followed literally no formula, just talking to Her and explaining why I was praying to her, why I sought to honor her, the offerings I was giving. I was kind of hurrying, because I knew that my mother and sister would be home from guitar lessons soon, and I really, really didn't want to get caught. So, I slightly rambled, but I hope she heard me and understood. Wrapping up was basically just rehiding everything, replacing the stuff like the teacup and the libations cup in their display places around my room (they look like trinkets, it's a good plain sight hiding place), removing and putting away my veil and shawl, and pouring the libations down the bathroom sink.

Introduction for Bead Peeps Swap n Hop

I'm participating in the Bead Peeps Swap n Hop this year. While this is the third year of the challenge, It's my first time participating. Basically, you are paired up with another jewelry artist and the two of you swap a focal, beads, and a clasp. One of those elements need to be artist-made, and you have to send at least two of those three elements. From there, you make jewelry from the pieces received! Fun stuff!!

Bead Peeps is a Facebook group administered by Linda Anderson. We were supposed to get an intro post up before she made the partner assignments. However, I was so busy with the ball (Mardi Gras) and family obligations that I completely missed that somehow. Despite missing the deadline, I still want to make this post for future reference. I'm tossing in some examples of my jewelry designs throughout this post to give examples of my work. Here we go!

A scrapbooking keyhole is the focal with a small Gaea flower connector. Vintaj wire was used to wrap glass pearls and glass beads to make the chain.

The arc on these is from some old earrings I took apart. The beads are a combination of glass, stone, and metal beads that worked well together.

I've been making jewelry for over 15 years. In that time, I've experimented and played with many techniques: decoupage, polymer clay, precious metal clay, metal etching, resin, etc. I started with stringing, but really love to use wire in my work. Though, stringing and knotting do come into play occasionally.

The color palette for this was a little out of my comfort zone, but I do love it. It incorporates a vintage button and vintage glass beads, freshwater pearls, stone beads, and seed beads into a really cute bracelet.

This was made for ZnetShows' Creative Spark publication and includes their cultured sea glass and tiny Chinese crystals. I really like the layering of this necklace.

Beads are indeed a staple in my work, but my favorite is designing with the unusual. This includes recycling old jewelry from thrift and antique stores, using hardware, upcycling items found on the street, etc. However, I'm not completely consistent with those methods. It just depends on the materials. In addition, I enjoy altering materials (both typical and the unusual) to suit my needs.

The dangly parts of this necklace are almost all found objects! A scrapbook brad and a wired resin piece I made are also included. I wear this necklace often.

Playing with wire, I came up with these earrings. I love how the Czech glass beads slide side to side on their bar.

For years I've had a hard time defining my style. I now feel as though my focus is beginning to narrow. Most of the pieces I make and like tend to have a romantic and boho feel to them. However, a bit of tribal does get thrown in from time to time.

These feel both romantic and tribal to me. The softness of the Lucite flower and pink beads are contrasted with the dark wood and shiny metal.

All of the charms in this bracelet came from old jewelry. Most of them are post earrings I wasn't sure how else to use. I incorporated a variety of jump rings in order to give it a slightly less fancy feel.

I often use glass and stone beads and antiqued metals. Though, that's not consistently the case - I will use a shiny gold or silver tone depending on how I'm inspired. And, I don't always use beads - buttons are a real favorite of mine and seem to worm their way into my pieces.

I made the stacked button focal before the necklace came together. The collar style of necklace is just so cute. I think it pairs well with the buttons.

I found the Webb Co. tag in an antique store and knew it would be a great addition to a long necklace. To add to the found object feel, the mother of pearl buttons were included in the chain.

I veer toward anything rustic, old, vintage-y. I love most colors, but do have a hard time incorporating anything too bright into my jewelry. Blues, greens, and neutrals tend to be my go-tos.

That's a guitar volume knob as the focal to this necklace. I kept a simple palette with an array of beads to accent the knob. 

I bought the altered copper charms from Bandana Girl and simply added some coordinating beads.

I'd like to say that I'm inspired by nature, but in reality I think it's the materials themselves that spark my imagination and creativity.

I had these holey bone beads for ages before I felt inspired to cage them in with some darkened annealed wire.

This is one of the most recent listing in my etsy shop. Again, I used a scrapbooking keyhole in antiqued brass. The green beads and bead caps are from ZnetShows.com. It all seemed to just fall together perfectly.

That about sums me up. There's probably something I've left out of this. Please don't hesitate to ask in the comments. Oh, and let me introduce my partner - Kari Asbury. She's using her Instagram to post about this swap, but she also has a blog on her KariAsbury.com website that she uses from time to time as well. Go check out her stuff. It looks like we have similar styles! p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; color: #454545} via Blogger http://ift.tt/2lhpPyK

I do a lot of arts and crafts. I can crochet anything, but I'm not so good with knitting. I make specialized fabric scrapbook covers. Jewelry. I work with clay, but not very good at it. I also have bins full of paints and pastels. Canvas. Beads and beading supplies. Fabric. I have probably four bins of yarn that I’ve yet to do anything with. Rolls of hemp, suede, and leather cord. Different styles of chain. I have a shit-ton of embroidery thread. I’ve been considering cross-stitch, but not sure I’ll go there. Right now, I use it for friendship bracelets. I’ve been making them since elementary school. I like the 5D diamond paintings. I have stacks of those stress relief coloring books and bins full of colored pens and pencils. I have somewhere near 30 notebooks for writing. I do a shit-ton of writing. I recycle a lot of things for the sake of it. Belts. Guitar strings. Old CDs, DVDs, and records. Sometimes I save straps from purses or chains from belts, depends on what they look like. Odd findings. Cupboard handles if I like what they look like. If I see things on the side of the road, I’m picking through it for odd findings. I also work with sand and shells, sea glass ... and fuck yes, glitter. Candles. If I see something cool as fuck online, I will buy and create. 

Right now, I’m shopping online for a.soldering gun.
