. . . my new steampunk necklace is done.  
It feels done tonight, but I'll take another look at it tomorrow and decide.  I'm wearing it right now, actually; for some reason, I find that's the best way to get to know it.  
While I'm working on a piece of jewelry, it is more a part of me than something in its own right.  I know, that sounds really rather odd; but take my word for it, they don't seem quite real to me.  Perhaps that's because I do so much taking apart; if I thought of my pieces as entities in their own right, I'd probably feel badly about ripping things to shreds.
Until I wear them for awhile, they're just possibilities.  After I've worn them, they become real.
