== Mod a cheap plastic ring by KwartzKitten
I  just love nerdy jewelry, especieally if it's "personal nerdy"; something I'm a fan of. I also love DIY'ing my own jewelry, so when I got a cheap plastic Hello Kitty ring at a friends birthday party I knew I'd scored. But what to make? The ring was cute from the get-go but I was NOT a fan of the kitty. And then it hit me; I could make a Nepeta ring! Nepeta, for those of you who don't know, is a character from the hugely popular webcomic Homestuck. Maybe with this ring I can make some furiends! (kidding)

Step 1: == Prep the ring

The first thing I did was take my ring and try to get most of the paint off. I used pure acetone, the kind Pony-modders do to remove the decorative paint.

As you can't see in the photos, the process actually started melting the ring, so this step isn't necessary. Not to mention the ring just looked dirty when I was done. :((

Wow, that's lucky! Does that mean you'll be making this? Quick tip I forgot to add: if you don't have a dremel tool, a file would also work, along with some sand paper, it would just take longer.

i assumed you were a pegasister not a brony which is it

Wait what? Um, both I guess. Whatever works for you, it's both sides of the same coin for me. I just say "brony" because it's easier.

Oh! Female, yeah. Sorry, that last question threw me for a loop for some reason.
