(Positive) relationship shit below

The breakup with Mx Toxic has made me realise I should be taking my relationship with Raven more seriously. With my improving mental health I can be their rock and now the other guy is out of it I feel like I can express my affection for Raven without causing drama with Mx Toxic. Raven and I have also been together for more than 10 years! When we got together we were a 'cis+hetero' couple lol, now we are both trans and gay. To begin with we wanted to get married and have at least one kid, now we both dislike the idea of marriage and are antinatalists <3

While I don't want to get married or have a ceremony or anything I do want some kind of symbol of our undying love and the bond we have that is clearly not going anywhere, so I asked if they would like if we got rings. They said yes! Unfortunately we are also on a budget so we can't drop thousands on AMAZING rings (would take anything from Nick Von K). Other limitations include my goddamned allergy to nickel and wanting to keep the rings looking fine for a while, at least until we can afford to replace them, so I've had to be looking at least at gold vermeil (a little thicker than electroplated, thinner and cheaper than gold filled & solid gold) or sterling silver (I don't like silver).

I originally wanted something kind of rough/hammered gold with a garnet or maybe an opal or something interesting in it, somewhere between these

(x, x)

But here are some I've been looking at below that we COULD afford and I wanna know what you all (anyone who's reading this) thinks about them:

From Lucid & Luna, NZ, heavily ft. Moonstone lol

Honestly lots of nice and reasonably priced rings at Moon Magic, USA but I don't know the company and feel slightly funny about ordering from the USA tbh

Patterned bands from MasteRetsaM on Etsy that I also love

One of many nice rings at Kirstin Ash, Aus, but they're priced for quality...

Really nice but nicely priced ring from Bixby & co, Aus, with recycled glass instead of gemstones!

Just a proper sized, gold filled band with a solitaire CZ from J&Co, USA.

Rings that are a bit more fun from Thaya, from... USA?? The fun designs make me waver from my preference for gold but I also don't have to deal with the enamel chipping or weathering off.

A selection from Etsy (x, x, x). It's not easy wading through the junk on there

Or, we could just...

Engagement ring inspiration for WAL and Choosing Series pt 1

Because The Last Bridge is wrapping up, I figured I would show a bit of the real world inspirations for some of the details used in both The Last Bridge and my Choosing series (and because I’m not entirely sure that I did it justice describing them--you know what they say, picture’s worth 1000 words) 

Audrey’s engagement ring in The Last Bridge (https://www.jeulia.co.nz/product-double-halo-pear-cut-pink-stone-sterling-silver-ring-cid13-jewe0477?__currency__=NZD&country=NZ&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=surfaces&gclid=Cj0KCQjwuL_8BRCXARIsAGiC51Al2B3opo6EFEcLooA94oOffmhprK5ulRHNYsx5j4raWhGv-eHnP0UaAjskEALw_wcB) 

Harriet’s engagement ring in Choosing Home and The Last Bridge (because I believe in fixed points and because I’m not hunting down another engagement ring so they’re different in both stories) (www.jeulia.co.nz/product-bead-pear-cut-sterling-silver-ring-cid66-jest0007#G1_SI_fancyblack&M1_925silverrosegolden)

The Purge 2020

Week 12, September 21 to September 27

After week 11 ended on such a high note, I am full of energy and enthusiasm for week 12. Reducing piles is still the name of the game. And I do - that and so much more.

Monday morning, my easy access electronics box catches my eye. It’s a simple cardboard box, covered in red fabric. I brought it with me from New Zealand in 2014. The fabric’s gone a bit brittle over the years and crumbles every time I touch it. If I’m careful, it’s okay. Bot on the other hand, having your fingers covered in red fabric dust every time you need the charger for the camera battery isn’t all that great, either.

Why I still had the box, then? Well, I had to store my electronics somewhere. Right?

However, on that Monday morning I have a sudden realisation. A realisation that ends with all electronics being devided into two other boxes and now that red-fabric-dust-box is empty. It doesn’t pass go but goes straight into the rubbish bin.

(Well, the fabric dust does. The cardboard, properly goes into recycling. We are in Germany here, after all.)

It was pretty fascinating to watch myself during this process. After all, the red fabric box came with me from New Zealand and in the past I’ve clung to anything relating to NZ with a vengeance. But getting rid of the box was really easy - no sentimentalities involved, no feeling of “but New Zealand!” Simply relief that the red-dust shedding box is gone. And the little built-in shelf in my living room looks much better without it. Less stuffed full am cramped. There’s room to breathe, now.

A great start to the week.

Tuesday continues in the same vein. The morning is spent puttering around and clearing my way through miscellaneous bits and bobs. It was spontaneous, unplanned, a bit like the red-fabric-box yesterday. I notice something and follow the pull and happily make my way through several boxes full of tidbits and decorative miscellanea. It’s a bit like meditation, really - I am fully in the present moment and very still and quiet inside. I simply do, without filtering my actions through the mind. It’s an amazing feeling.

Later that day I drop off the next book pile at the open bookshelf. And notice happily that all the books I left here last week are gone already. Yay! That makes me happy, too.

On Wednesday, I suddenly realise that - wait, wasn’t this supposed to go according to some kind of plan? Like, I had a list of some kind? Ehhh ... oops? Wait, what did I say comes next? Accessories?

Oh, well, whatever. I simply go and tackle my jewellery box next. Necklaces, ear rings, bracelets - a lot gets put on the next pile to get rid of. Like, I own sooo many necklaces, yet I rarely ever wear any.

(Not my choice, I have a couple of family members who delight in giving me necklaces, and even the fact that they never see me wear any seems to deter them. Hmph.)

Earrings, yes. I love earrings. All the earrings. I love wearing them and can’t really have enough of them. But bracelets? Get in the way. Necklaces? Ugh, no, I’m not a fan of having something hanging around my neck. Also, they tend to get stuck in things or dip into things. So why not simply - get rid of all of them?

That makes me pause for a moment. Somewhere I apparently carry the belief that one simply has to own jewellery. Is it because I’m a woman? I don’t know. It just seems that the belief is there.

Then there’s also that little voice that tells me, “But what if you get rid of all of them and then you really need one? Like, you need one to go with your outfit?”

That’s another interesting one. Who says I must wear a necklace with any kind of outfit? Quite apart from the fact that I rarely ever do - who says that? Who tells me I must do that? Who has decreed that? Hm??

Besides - I can off the top of my head remember several instances where I did not wear a necklace with my outfit, even though it would have looked nice. And people asked me about it (Why aren’t you wearing a necklace with that? Your neck looks so bare.) Yet in neither of these instances I’d even thought about putting one on beforehand. It simply hadn’t bleeped on my radar.

So the question back to you, little voice, “Why, if I never even think about wearing necklaces - why do I need to own about a dozen?”

Precisely.

So the necklaces go. The genuine silver stuff I put aside; maybe I can sell those. The fashion jewellery goes into the box to be taken to the op-shop at some point.

Same goes for bracelets - all into the box they go. Maybe the AWO people can do something about them. I don’t want to store them anymore.

So much space in my jewellery box, so awesome.

And then, on my way back from the AWO box sitting in the hall to my bedroom, my eyes fall onto my bedside table. A tiny little chest of drawers, just two of them. Something about it catches my attention, and the next I’m aware I’m crouched in front of it and look through the drawers.

Bottom one, yeah, I went through that once before. Think I’ll need to do that again, at one point in the future. It doesn’t feel quite right, yet. Top one, well, okay, it’s only the stuff I use often ...

Or so I thought, anyway.

Do you know that moment? When you’ve been looking at something for ages but then your really, actually see it for the first time?

Yeah. So. I look into that drawer - and have several realisation. There’s an energy rising inside of my, too, that is ... well. It needs to be let go of, that’s for sure!

So I do. I sit down and go through that top drawer. Throw away a couple of note-books (ugh, horrible, horrible energy) and other assorted stuff. And then - there is my diary. I take it out, flip through it.

Last entry: August 2016.

Yeah, it’s been a while. Also fascinating - because in September 2016, I attended my first Openhand retreat.

The last entry in the diary ends with me talking about leavin and old life behind and stepping into a new one. Gives me shivers, how right I was. I couldn’t have known, yet I was absolutely right.

The last word, squeezed onto the page: goodbye :-)

I close the diary. I don’t think I will write anything into it, ever again. That life is over.

So the diary goes from the bedside table into my treasure chest. Yes, I have a treasure chest. A real, honest treasure chest. Looks as if it’s from a pirate movie.

Opening the chest is another experience. Yes, all my treasures - and yet, so many of them aren’t Me anymore. I am almost baffled. Not so much because they’re not Me anymore. But because of how much they aren’t Me anymore.

Wow.

Anyway, out with it, with all of it. That’s the past, that an old Me that I haven’t been in years - and all of it can go.

Feels great.

And yet, I get the sense that it will take some time to process through and finally settle. That’s okay. It was an amazing experience, not just to see but to feel how much I have changed. How far I have come.

That’s so, so great.

After three so incredibly successful days, I’m raring to go on Thursday morning. What’s next? My eyes land on the shoe box covered in wrapping paper, in which I keep my cassetts.

Yes, cassetts. I still have cassetts. I still listen to cassetts. My stereo still has a cassett recorder. (Yes, I still have a stereo.)

Still, I’m fairly certain there are cassetts in there that I can let go of.

So I take the box from the shelf and look through it. And like the bedside table yesterday, I really see what’s in there. Oh my God, that’s some really old stuff! My first cassette, the one I inherited from my father and used to record music from the radio. Must be at least 30 years old. Does it even still work?

Oh, and this one! The cassette is labelled “TaoTao” - I don’t even remember exactly what that is, anymore.  A radio drama, I think? Maybe? I know that my parents taped it for me when I was really tiny and that I loved it. Gosh, how long since I’ve listened to it? 35 years?

Ooooh, does anybody even still listen to David Hasselhoff? :D

Yeah, a lot of those go straight to the rubbish bin. And I think that about half of those remaining will ultimately have to go, too. We’ll see. Maybe I’ll listen to them again, now that I have remembered what I have here. If not? They’ll go, yb the end of the year.

Right. That’s that.

I feel incredibly light and energetic and about 2 lbs lighter.

Friday, the week is coming to a close. Friday, and more stuff goes.

Like the necklaces. I take the bunch to a shop that buys valuables, dump the bunch onto the guy’s table and ask him if he’d like to buy them. He sorts through them, weighs the lot, types away on his calculator, muttering under his breath.

“Hm, yes, so, assume it’s all Sterling silver, that’s in gramm, hm, yes, and that would be, hm, yes, that’s for me, so, hm, how much can I offer you for those? 25 Euro?”

He sounds apologetic. I’d expected about half of that, so I readily agree and return home, without those necklaces and with 25 Euro. And yes, okay, maybe that’s not a lot. But on the other hand, 25 Euro is four tubs of my favourite Nomoo ice cream. I think that’s fair deal.

As the grand finale, a guy comes Friday evening together with his daughter to pick up the Billy bookshelf I’d put up on ebay. Now it’s gone. It’s gone, yay, there’s - there’s space, now.

There is.

Space.

You know, I’d never thought a bit of white wall could make me this happy, but there you go. It does. I like that space between the other two bookshelves so much, that I decide against re-arranging the furniture, as I’d planned to to. Nope, I like that space, I love looking at it, I get a little kick of energy every time I do. So. This is sparking joy, in the absolutely literal sense, so it will stay like that.

For now, at least. Maybe it will stop sprking joy. Maybe I’ll get curious to see what re-arranging the furniture will do to the space. But that’s okay. That’s for later. For now, I enjoy the white wall and the space, and how happy something so seemingly simple makes me.

Impactful Hip Hop Jewelry

custom hip hop pendantsThe jewellery community is starting to take notice to the increasing demand for hip hop jewelry. This jewelry was made popular by various rap stars and actors alike. Now anyone can afford their own bit of iced out jewelry due to the fact that many retailers are offering large custom hip hop pendants blog here selections at very honest rates.

Hiphop jewellery is the term given to jewelry that's flashy and contains lots of bright stones onto it. It was created by rap stars like 50 TSV Jewelers hip hop earring Cent, Eminem and Dr. Dre. While the jewelry that they wear generally costs thousands of dollars, today anyone can manage iced out jewelry.

These custom pimp cups were made popular with rapper Lil' John and may be personalized with any letters of your selection. Each pimp cup allows you to choose up to 5 letters that'll be put on the glass and they are covered in bling from top to bottom.

Among the most popular items of iced out jewelry is watches. There are several styles of copy hip hop watches that you could buy and they all come with plenty of bling. One style is https://www.tsvjewelers.com the replica Jacob & Co. watches which feature dials for several different time zones. Each of these watches come with iced out stones onto the watch face and the watch band.

Whether it be iced out bracelets, bling watches or custom pimp cups, you also can have your own piece of hip hop jewelry. If you're interested in knowing more about iced out jewelry subsequently have a look at MyHipHopBling.com. They have a huge supply of all sorts of jewellery and you're sure to find a thing of hip hop jewelry that is suitable for you.

When the very first introduction of the "Rap" fashion hit on the audio industry, few would have predicted that the impact of "Hip-Hop" civilization would go mainstream. However, it has done exactly that, as noticed by the growing number of celebrities showing off their "Bling-Bling", the normal term for hip hop jewelry. The upsurge in popularity of this particular style of jewelry, owes its claim to fame custom hip hop jewelry chicago to the recording artists whose reputation was built on athletic expensive, showy rings, pendants and earrings. Actually, this term has come to be so widely used, that the Oxford Dictionary has contained it, combined with "jiggy" and "phat". Credits for this term proceed the Hip-Hop artist B.G, who recorded a 1999 hit tune that brought "Bling-Bling" as a favorite catchphrase into the mainstream.

There's not any doubt concerning the broad appeal of this hip-hop jewelry design, it functions well on our individual desire to be seen and by extension, when you've "bling-bling" it also refers to obvious and appealing wealth. While hip-hop fashion, the distinctive style of apparel originating from urban culture, is only one element of the lifestyle, the focus given to the jewellery of the motion has far outpaced that of the clothing.

But truth be told, the wearing of big, extravagant jewelry was popular with artists such as Elvis Presley and Tom Jones, a long time before lace became the present cultural phenomenon, but it's completely changed the jewelry marketplace of today. Because fans want to emulate their favorite celebrities and jewelry has always been in the peak of the list when it comes to making a big impression. In the modern age of instant information, the hip-hop jewelry scene changes as fast as the album chart hits along with the reputation of many celebrities can be encouraged or deflated by who is wearing the most fashionable "Bling-Bling".

hip hop earringThere is an abundance of designs to select from in regards to hip-hop jewellery, all made with a single point in your mind; to catch the eye and attract attention. "Bling-Bling" can be viewed on actors when they look in music videos, on the catwalk or about the red carpet. In the late-1990s, hip-hop artists started wearing platinum jewelry, including more than a little flash hip hop earrings nz to their marketing material. After platinum replaced gold as the most popular precious metal in hip fashion, fans and artists started to compete to see who would use the most outrageous "bling-bling" of silver often using a dazzling display of diamonds. Hip-Hop performers started to take their bragging rights directly from who was sporting the most platinum jewelry.

Now with an ever expanding community on the world wide web, the mainstream acceptance of lace jewellery is confirmed. You will find lace jewelry internet sites offering entirely 'iced-out' bling-bling; rings, bracelets or watches, encrusted to the hilt with real or faux diamonds. And the most recent currency daze of lace jewellery is your so-called 'spinner' read more on wikipedia here watches and rings. The influence of hip-hop has even extended to the world of dentistry; platinum fronts are in demand, some going as far as to replace their own teeth with an whole mouthful of permanent platinum teeth. Others who have opted for a little more small display have their dentists produce platinum grills-removable metal jeweled teeth caps.

Imagine making an entry wearing a dollar sign pendant encrusted with diamonds and strung on a silver or gold barrel link-necklace. Or a Machiavelli crucifix or a Run DMC rope series all yelling out diamonds and more diamonds. Without second thought, bling is guaranteed to grab the eye, fancy and also the envy of all those who lay their eyes on you. Hip Hop jewelry has become synonymous with all the glitz, glamor and achievement of the music and fashion worlds. Be it genuine or fake, the alluring appeal of glittering brocades of iced out jewelry which are also termed as "the shiznit" are a component of a trend that looks like it's here to stay.

Heavy, chunky and glitzy, studded jewelry has been around for many years now. Nevertheless, in recent times, there were many, many rap stars such as 50 Cent and many others, sporting a Hip Hop string and a heavy gold bracelet, carrying this form of jewellery into the heights of its popularity. Together with the likes of Snoop Doggy Dogg and other veterans in rap, Hip Hop and also rambunctious newcomers like Lil' Wayne sporting such attractive pieces of jewelry, disregarding the custom gold plated pendants glamor of gold, silver, platinum and diamonds in the shape of enviable chunks of jewelry is going to be quite difficult, if not impossible. And today, the fashion statement has even reached out to the masses, with Hip Hop jewelry conditions like the iced out bracelets and bullet chains becoming common names from the household. Hip Hop chains and dental grills made from gold and diamonds take their place from the wish lists of several youngsters who idolize these superstars.

It's not just guys who are intent on picking up and following this raging fashion trend. Definitely, and perhaps not surprisingly, it's not only the guys who wish to show off their Hip Hop gold chains. Lil' Kim will always be remembered for her perfect portrayal of the alter ego in the promo images of "Dancing with the Stars" on ABC. Dressed in a memorable silver coin ensemble, she ravished her bling appeal, but it was not quite take a look at the blog here the typical expression inspired by the ghetto. No self-respecting necklace, Mercedes necklace or iced out bracelet is any game to jewellery made from any kind of precious / semi-precious metal which not only takes the form of money, but also practically covers the whole body.

Cheap hip hop jewelry can seem to be a contradiction in terms but it should come as no surprise that in their zeal to follow the hip hop style, regular people with down home budgets invest big money on cheap hip hop jewellery. By cheap I mean inexpensive materials and workmanship used to generate the bigger than life hip hop jewelry pieces which won't break the bank. You can call them reproductions in a manner of speaking but that market is hip hop bamboo earrings so large that there are many distinctive hip hop jewellery items with publication design that are made from non-precious substances using glue as a setting fabric rather than metal prongs.

The most popular inexpensive metal used for inexpensive hip hop jewelry is sterling silver with a rhodium plate of a few microns to give it the pure white appearance. White gold goes through a similar procedure to turn it out of a dingy yellow to gleaming white so rhodium plated silver appears like white gold all things considered. The one thing that silver surpasses is the heft of it's valuable brethren karat white gold and silver. Sterling silver may also be plated with yellow gold to make it look like gold. This metal is known as vermeil and although the gold coating isn't over 5 microns thick it still has that glistening buttery yellow look just like actual yellow gold.

At commercial wholesale costs which range from a dollar to a number of dollars a carat it is only a matter of picking the quality required as there are varying qualities available based upon the manufacturer. The way these stones are put also matters to the overall look of the piece.

It makes far more sense to get this production done in Thailand, China or India where this job could be done at a fraction of the cost in the usa. In addition, this kind of setting work does not involve meticulous reworking of the stone chairs and the manual bending of each prong over a stone. More often glue is used to hold the stones in and prongs are provided a cursory once over simply to get them in position. Painstaking labour cannot be used to fashion a slice that can sell for from twenty bucks to a few hundred dollars.
