Today's post is something a little different, but hopefully something that you enjoy. I am a big fan of merchandise and I love buying anything related to a fandom that I am apart of. One of my personal favourite pastimes is scrolling through the endless etsy stores that offer stunning fandom products. Today I have complied a list of my three favourite pieces that I own.
This necklace had to be on this list. It was a birthday present from one of my best friends in the world who is also a fellow PotterHead. I just love wearing it because Harry Potter is a series that has greatly impacted my life and it's always great to wear it and meet other PotterHeads. It is honestly a really great conversation starter. Well I wouldn't really know because I don't really socialise, ha ha.

Item 2: Time Turner
This is a another Harry Potter piece of jewellery. It is also probably my favourite out of all the pieces I have mentioned on this list. It is awesome because it actually spends and has so much detail on it. Another bonus is that it was very inexpensive from eBay. I'm can be very thrifty, more money for books that way!

| The sand in this time turner moves and it spins, just like the movie! I may or may not have spun it on multiple occasions when I realised that I have forgotten to do my homework... |

Item 3: Amity ring
This ring is actually not a official piece of jewellery for the Amity faction. I was wondering around my local shopping centre when I went into a jewellery store and found this ring. There was a dramatic moment where my eyes fell on it and a voice came out of nowhere, that funnily enough resembled Morgan Freeman's voice, screamed, "you need to buy it, it looks like the Amity symbol!" Life tip, you never refuse a voice that sounds like Morgan Freeman.
I have taken countless online quizzes and also the official quiz to determine my faction in the Divergent universe, but I believe they may be faulty, ahaha. On all of them I was sorted into Dauntless, besides from on that said I belonged in Erudite. In my heart I feel that I actually belong in Amity. The values of kindness and the calm lives resonate with me. What better way to speak against the system by showing Amity pride!

Item 4?!
You are probably checking the title and getting your fingers ready for the flurry of typing angry comments in all caps. This technically is not a fandom piece of jewellery and I thought you might like a little bonus jewelry item in this list. I also decided to add to this list though because it is one of my favourite rings that I own. I also use this ring as a bookmark. Before you laugh at me and say that this is stupid, please keep in mind that I use anything as a bookmark. I have even use the sandwich, but that is a story for another time.
I wear this ring 98% of the time and when I can't find a bookmark around me I just slip it in and boom perfect bookmark. No more losing pages and then regretting every life decision you've ever made. I I honestly believe that that is the worst feeling in the world. I said that and contemplate life and regret bringing dishonour on my family, my self and my cow.

I have been planning this post for well over 2 weeks and I'm finally happy with it. I have taken photos of fandom inspired jewellery pieces so many times at this point. I just haven't been happy with the results, but eventually after 2 weeks, there was good weather so I went outside to take some photos in the natural sunlight. The photos are actually decent! I don't think you can comprehend my joy. *massive sigh of relief*
I have also been exploring the vast genre that is virtual art. It's been a lot of fun and I decided that I would like to incorporate that into my photos. I really do hope you like them and appreciate them because it took me over three hours. Being a newbie with the software really rattled me. I am getting better though!
I'm wishing to the book gods that you enjoyed this post and have a lovely day!
