Thats sick! Wear it! I think it looks pretty cool…and who cares what anyone thinks, do you see THEM wearing something that they made? haha
Rock that necklace!… you know you want too lol
And see if you get any comments on it…if a lotta people liek it maybe you can start making them/selling them on ebay too!

thanks : )…i might, and nobody wears stuff they make because normally companies can make better stuff cheaper.. and like sum said, ebay wouldnt work too well, so I was going to go on etsy, which is all homemade stuff…

So are you going to wear it? lol

I might, but idk, my family makes fun of me for stuff I make, so I’d assume other people would…

Im also a guy, i took a jewelry class in high school and half the class were guys. Think of it as soft metal work rather than jewelry making. Also i know lots of guys who wear hemp rope necklaces they have made.

oh alright : ).. my school doesnt have fun shop-like classes.. stupid catholic unfun-ness… i thought of considering it “fine metal work” but it still floats back to jewelry making.. and hemp necklaces would be different, because its more like illegal tough drug-ness and stuff, idk im rambling..

Here is an idea: Wear it and when someone comments, say, “I make them and I sell them, too.”
The guys will be impressed with the idea that you created it yourself and you may even take an order or two.
When you can, take a class in metal working. Men who can work with metal have a marketable skill. Some of the guys in my community college jewelry class began to cast their own designs in silver. Others went on to bigger metal forming projects.

hey thanks a lot : )
as of yet, the only people who have commented on it have been my family.. and i cant wear it much because i go to catholic school and nobody would comment on it being under my tie and stuff so yeah.. i dont know if i want to take a metal working class but ill think about it.. classes bore me, and i want stuff to be fun : )… thats why ive learned like everything i know online.. but thanks : )
