Being a mad genius *hahahasnort* I fixed the get well necklace from high school. It even looks almost the same, although with sliiiiiightly less beads. All of the special ones somehow resurfaced, the ones that were supposed to represent certain people. Woohoo!
I think, aside from my scheme to make the most beautiful object in the world, that I like making jewelry because it can be a sort of amulet (without being an actual amulet by definition.) Some of my jewelry has so many memories and things that I want to hang onto packed into it that I can look at it and feel like the person I love is physically in the room. I have to remind myself how much people in my life care about me because some part of me never seems to get it. I used to ruin relationships over this crap.
