special necklace to celebrate 45 years

I found this medal piece that reads 1964, 45th anniversary year at a flea market. so i 've been holding onto knowing i wanted to create something with it being i was born in '64 and i am turning 45. so this is what i came up with. it's a large piece and it definitely will showcase me on my birthday as i wear my party hat and have dinner with friends while in Ohio. (pam, i'm going to miss you!)

45 is just around the corner

i wanted to take a picture of my bangs as i am growing them out so that i can wear them "rockabilly style". then of course i took several shots as it is kind of hard to take your own picture and i usually can't tell how the pictures are looking as i am taking them. surprisingly, i actually liked these, so i'm gonna post them and say, i don't look half bad for 45!
