hobbies
First off, I'm still pregnant. I have to get that out of the way before I can talk with anyone these days.
My husband recently took up a hobby: Warhammer 40,000. This may be simultaneously the geekiest and most masculine hobby ever. For anyone who's interested, he's posting pictures of his painting work on LJ (lovecraft29).
Not to be outdone, I also decided to take up a hobby: making chain mail. (Yes, Mel, this is your fault.) I soon realized that the pretty shiny stuff is expensive, so I'm offering to make my friends something at cost. If you've read this far, you qualify :-)
Caveats:
1) By something I mean a keychain, necklace, bracelet, earrings, etc. Not a suit of armor!
2) I do have a baby on the way, so don't expect it by any given date.
For inspiration, you can browse through Etsy, and to get an idea of the metals available, look here. Let me know what item, metal, and style you're interested in, and I'll give you a cost estimate.
