box ring

i think this is a very interesting take on a box ring, as part of my first year training at CPUT in Cape Town we made a box ring. it was quite challenging but rather rewarding to make. i learnt how to create a hollow construction through that project. the box ring i made was quite simple as is this ring however this ring has more substance to it. the pierced out designs are quite intricate, i also love the balance of the dark pink and light pink on the inside of the ring.

my heart lies on the beaches of mauritius.

i think this ring is absolutally beautiful! it has such a raw charm to it, it is not over worked and over the top, it is elegant and yet playful.

there are so many different shades of purple in the stone and the silver setting fits around it perfectly. i really love the size and organic shapes of it all.

this amazing ring is very inspirational to me, i love it!

this photo has always bring a smile to my face, this was a very joyous time in my life.. it was the last days of my high school, we all dressed up for the day i loved every minute of it..

the photo is of me aka tinkerbell and a good friend of mine Aditya aka Afroman..=] i played with the colours and the contrast to create interesting shading and colours.. anyways, this photo always make me laugh and think of amazing days! i love this photo=]

i think this ring is rather interesting, i think that the materials are very well mixed, they work well together. i like the size of the ring as well, some people may find it is too big but i like the look of wearing one big statement making piece, it becomes a very interesting visual aspect on your person and it can also be an easy conversation starter..

the 'spiral' in the ring is very organic, which is something i love.

i think that over all this is a very strong piece and yet it is very elegant..

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart) - ee cummings

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

i first read this poem when i was about 12 years old and it has always stuck with me.. i find it lifting and inspiring. 
this beautiful poem has been my favourite ever since i read it, i love it. 
it puts a smile on my face and always makes me think of wonderful, happy memories.
i find this poet extremely interesting, he never used punctuation in his work, i assume he thought it would stunt the words..
this poem has always and will always be special to me.
