My Steampunk lesbian self filigree ring

This is the newest peace of jewelry I have made. I was thinking of how I could show I'm a single lesbian with out saying anything, Because I'm a feminine transgender women who is also a lesbian. So I was thinking of a laughed ring that maybe has a rainbow heart on it. But I decided not to because I couldn't find one. So I thought of the lesbian triangle to show I'm a lesbian but then again I didn't find a laughed ring with this on it ether.  I also wanted it to be a steampunk ring so while I was at Michael's in the jewelry section I seen a set of filigree rings but I didn't get them at that time. So I was on there website and found them there and some key charms I was looking for, I bought them then. So I decided on the lesbian triangle but I didn't have black polymer clay, So I mixed leaf green and red pearl. It didn't go black like I thought it would like with oil paint when you mix a certain shade of red and green it will go black. But I wanted it to match the filigree ring and the polymer clay went a reddish brown and it sparkles in the light. So I made the triangle anyways and after I baked the clay I glued it on with E6000. And the next morning I started wearing the ring. It is a steampunk lesbian self filigree ring. Here is what it looks like finished.
 
So this is what it looks like from my view wearing the ring.
The white looking dots is what is sparkling in the light. The ring also represents to
be true to ones self for who they are and for me that is. No matter what happens in life how
I question things I'm still a transgender women Who is also a lesbian. To be happy and except my self as so, no matter what happens through life. So of at this post I'm still a single transgender women who is also a lesbian. So any takers?

My Steampunk head bands and jewlery I made.

I hade planed on this post a few years ago but never got around to it. SO here is my latest things I have made.


This is the first head band I have made from an old shirt and gears I have sown on,
and the Blue one is the second one I made as you can see below it is made the same way.
By sowing two peace's of fabric together to make it longer then folding it in half, and
sowing together then turning it right side out and the last end stitched in the ditch to
close the end. Then I sown the gears in place like there working gears, and theses are
the first two steampunk headbands I ever made. I may make a different kind of headband
in the future made of metal etc. to create a different steampunk look.

This next one is a butterfly pendent made out of polymer clay. The wings I made
them look like leafs. I put the same kind of chain on it like my heart pendant, so
its like a choker the top image is the front and the bottom is the back of the butterfly.

This next one is a cameo style of a rise of red flower I made this out of polymer clay as well.
I also glued on green rhinestones there plastic ones. And how I did the back was, I took a safety
pin and put it evenly in the middle and sandwiched it in between the clay before baking it. And
I could use it on the middle of the color of a elegant shirt, or as a broach or hang it on a chain
 like a neckless will work as well.

This last one I made is a cross I was thinking of making a steampunk cross
and this is what I came up with. It is also made out of polymer clay, and the wire at
the bottom of the cross. The wire is two scraps from two eye pins bent into shape
and places in the clay. And the design on the edges of the arms of the cross makes
 it look more finished, reminds me a cactus its heard to see but there lines going around
the edges of the arms. The last design the dot with the lines surrounding it reminds me of
the sun or that bright light that is explained as when you pass away and enter the light. So
this is the best I could come up with for a steampunk cross.
