    D.I.Y. Annular Brooch.

    So, I have been wanting a nice day wear plaid brooch and came across a christmas candle holder made of brass. It had Holly around the rim and the idea struck me that this would be a great annular brooch as the plant badge for Clan MacMillan is Holly. I also use it as one of my personal badges so it just made a good match for me. So after some cutting and grinding here it is.

    The brooch is about three and a half inches tall.

    Awesome!
    Makes some of the stock ones just plain, well, plain and shoddy by comparison.
