Thought I had a post queued up for tonight but apparently not!
Made this glorious set of large brass hair spikes this week. 125mm long, about 17/18mm wide, and extremely kickass 😎 3rd picture is of me wearing a stianless steel version of this size and style, in case you want to see them being worn.

Started the new year off with a banger 😎.
Hope everyone had a good time over the holidays and maybe caught up on some sleep! Thats about all I managed to do, aside from eating too much 😂
This year I'm going to try focus more on clothing than my jewellery which is a little scary because theyre sorta more like "projects" than "pieces", if that makes sense? More work and less definitely monetiseable 😅 but I figure at some point I have to do it and theres no better time than when I'm in (relative) stability sooo here we go!
Happy new year friends, let's hope its a better one!

Still selling my respirator if anyone in interested :)

Near new papr system bought a week ago and used for two hours. Works great and only selling due to personal preference for a soft cap instead of the hard shell cap in this one Full details can be found at https://www.jspsafety.com/products/PPE/Respiratory-Protection/Powered-Air-Respirators/Cae601-94...

Been at a Trans Day of Rememberance vigil tonight and it was heartbreaking. The sheer number of names to be read out from all around the world, ranging from people in their sixties down to children as young as eleven, was staggering. I've said it for years now that trans su***de is also murder, and a particularly cruel one to make a person in the depths of despair into their own assailant.
However, heartbreaking as it was, it makes my resolve stronger to live and be a living protest to those bastards who push us out of society, out of hope and ultimately out of life.
This piece I made was originally just the shattered bronze that represented my broken heart at where we are now but this year after protesting, meeting more fu***ng kickass trans people, and marching up and down the streets of Scotland, I finally had the strength to put it back together. It's still scarred and fragile, but it represents that resolve to keep going regardless, and hope for a better future.
"Fix Your Hearts" by me, 2025, bronze and stainless steel.

Hello friends! I bought this mask in the hopes of protecting my lungs a little better in the workshop but unfortunately it's not quite right for me so I'm selling it. You can't return PPE once it's been used, even briefly, so I need to get some of my money back to invest in something that suits my favoured ear protection and lumpy skull combination 😂
I'll post it in the UK for £300 all together which includes the mask/helmet, a pack of pre filters, and a pack of peel away visor protectors. In total £350 it cost me so this is a good chance to get a bargain on a nearly brand new papr respirator. Dm me for the link if you want to know the specs :)
Been used for about two-three hours and it's awesome! Just unfortunately not suitable for me 😭 pls share if you think you might know anyone interested!
