Subtle Safety Ring

Found this via Gizmodo. The subtle safety ring made by RedStart Design is something to behold, it's kinda bad ass no? I'd like to have one, and the price isn't bad at $78.

Gizmodo says...the Subtle Safety ring is probably going to be a big seller among women whose commute or daily routine puts them potentially in harms way, like subway riders or professional assassins. Unfolding from a single ring, the Subtle Safety transforms into something a little like a set of brass knuckles, and a little bit like a nasty scratching device. However it gets used, the three pointed metal tips look sort of unpleasant to catch in the face—hopefully that would be enough to discourage creeps from getting creepy.

I think it's a great idea, but I have to wonder how kindly some organization like the NYPD would take to anyone wearing a set of brass knuckles on the subway. Maybe it's so subtle they'd never notice.

Leviticus Jewelry

I noticed Leviticus Jewelry advertizing on some website or other, and clicked on the link, this is what I found....

I don't know about you, but I think this is one of the coolest things I've seen. A huge intricate bee to wear around your neck, I love it.

Charming Jewelry

These necklaces by Blue Moss are fabulous. I like jewelry like this, it's strange and pretty, and handmade, which makes me love it all the more. Visit the Blue Moss Etsy shop for more loveliness.

Paper Jewels

I'm in love with Craftster, and find interesting, innovative and very creative ideas there all the time. This is a  cute little project that I just can't help but love.

Here is what creator lisatrix had to say about the making of..."Mix ad-laden rich-lady magazines, cardstock and severe boredom, and several hours later you get".
