    Thanks TOM x 2:-) Glad you like the treatment:-)

    and JacQuelyn, I use photoshop and some texture to create the worn out effect. It took me quite a few hours just to do this....yikes.

    And BB,...awww????!?

    The only thing I know with photo manipulation is cropping. Haha. The time you've spent making this is well worth it. There's another Tom here? haha. Hello other Tom! :-)

    Hi Anony,

    the length of the chain when looped, is 24cm. It is not a very long chain. so total length os 48cm approx.


    And Tom,

    thanks! Photoshop is fun. you must go try it!
