-The Sound of Music-

music was, and still is, a big part of my life. I learnt the piano from a very young age of 6 or 7, alongside flute lessons, choir practice, with a dab of drum lessons and self-taught guitar. 


unfortunately, I didn't pursue any of them further, and have resorted to listening to music instead of playing (although my hands still itch to play a little tune whenever I hear the piano playing, or see the piano in my house that has since serve another purpose - a 'table' to collect whatever paper/flyer/change/magazines/junk around the house ).


needless to say, I believe this ring speaks for itself. I made it last night after having an epiphany in stats class (totally random I know ^^), in between writing my assignments, browsing, and watching TV.


so, here's one dedicated to music. You always manage to move me in a way nothing else could.

happy weekend!

  4. Thats a very unique ring, I like the music note too.

    Tie dying is very easy, theres like a million and one ways to do it also. But the way I did it in that photo was tied the jumper up into sections with rubber bands like shown on my blog then I painted all the visable areas with fabric paint/ink. Hang it out to dry, then when undo it and iron it to keep the colour in. And done :) Hope that helps you.

  15. lovely ring! can you flex your finger with it?

  16. thank you so sooo much!:)
    M, you can flex your finger, but obviously not as much as if you're not wearing the armor (hey!it is an armor and a shield lol), that's actually one of the reason why I designed it this way, so you can still flex your finger :)
