Sorry for lo-res pic. This is a bracelet that my first real girlfriend gave me back when I was 17. I lost the original one in Norfolk and scoured Camden market in London for an identical one. I don't know why, but I've always kept this bracelet, and still wear it regularly, although it's six years old now and starting to show its age.

All this jewelry belonged to my grandmother, and one ring to my great-grandmother. It was their prized Polish amber, which seemed a lot more exotic when I was in Missouri. Either way, I hold my heritage dear, so these hold special sentimental value to me.

note: it's really difficult to take a decent photobooth picture of a necklace and two rings, so please ignore what appears to be my freakish, disembodied, thumbless hand.

These are the Magic Tricks that I had when I was younger. They're some of my favorites, and what I attribute to my still being interested in magic today. Unfortunately, None of them are the actual peices I had as a kid, but I've found and re-purchased them over the years.

i was adopted from Russia, so I don't have anything really sentimental. However I speak Russian very well. I guess thats sentimental.

My Nannys old charm bracelet (She had a story to go along with each charm attached to it) and my Grandmothers opal ring. Probably the two pieces that have the most sentimental Value to me out of everything I own. The opal necklace is from @soarkaios and also one of the other rings. The pink ring is from my mom. I <3 my jewelry.

My G-shock watch, about 10 years old. It was a birthday gift from my ex-fiance. Though the band is worn and cracked and I own other watches, this one sits on my nightstand.

Hahaha! I've never worn them all at the same time, and boy... my hands feel so heavy and strange, but this is my collection of sterling silver rings - I'm addicted to getting new ones, and cherish the story behind each one :)

My grandfathers recliner. I've had it tucked away in storage since his death about 20 years ago. Two years ago, my mother secretly had it reupholstered for me as a Christmas gift. My grandfather was so amazing, and I spent every summer of my life with him.

The happiest I ever have been in my life was in this house. My Mom bought me the street sign for Christmas a couple of years ago. I cried. Like a baby.
