Cap Necklace

Lucky Charms and Golf

Tiger always wears a red shirt of the final day of a tournament. That is part of his preparation and his winning mind-set. It’s his good luck charm. In every sport you will come across a famous person who has a similar habit of wearing a particular “something” whenever they are facing a situation which matters to them. That something may be a pair of socks, a cap, necklace or pair of panties; it can in fact be anything at all.

It is not the actual item which matters; it is what it means to you. It is your emotional attachment to that item which creates the lucky charm as opposed to the physical properties of the item itself. Lucky charms are not embedded in logical thought; rather they hold emotional connotations.

Inevitably the greater the intensity of your emotional attachment the more likely it is that your lucky charm will work for you. This statement may not make any logical sense to you. But it does make emotional sense.

Why so? It has been proven over time that your own imagination shapes your reality. Your own beliefs and expectations will pave the way for the outcome which you expect. The stronger your belief the more likely it is that your expectations will come to fruition. Logically speaking, Tigers red shirt can not in itself help him to win. But emotionally, that shirt can make him feel like an invincible champion. And if you feel like a champion you will act like one.

It’s not only sports people who have lucky charms. In every walk of life you will come across individuals who have all sorts of lucky charms which they would not like to live without. Lucky charms are in fact a fantastic invention; they can make you feel however you want to feel, just by them being there for you. The emotional connections which you create between you and your lucky charm may seem invisible and even ridiculous to others, but they are very real to you.

There is no down-side to having a lucky charm; but there is a major benefit to be gained. Whatever your charm is, it is associated in your mind with an instinctive emotional reaction. This means that you automatically feel something (without having to try to do so) whenever you wear that shirt, or particular tie, or whatever it is.

In my case, when I play golf, I have a very special club head cover. Brandy is a little brown dog and he sits on my three wood. He originally graced my driver, before they became so big! I’d take him off the driver and sit him down on the tee box with his nose facing down the middle of the fairway. The emotional associations which are immediately triggered in me are those essentials in my pre-shot routine – clear focus, calmness, relaxed breathing and a vivid picture of where I want the ball to go.

Now, if you are a golfer you will certainly appreciate the benefit of a lucky charm which instinctively and instantaneously places you in the right mental state to make an optimal tee shot. And what’s the downside? Some people may wonder what on earth I am doing with my club head cover, or think that I’m a bit weird! But most people simply comment that they’d like to have a Brandy too!

Making a Y-Necklace with Silver Chains Made Easy & Fun

Craft lovers are fond of experimenting with different types of jewelry designs. There exist a wide variety of necklaces, earrings, chains, bracelets and rings that come in several unique shapes and sizes. You can also try making attractive jewelry designs on your own. One of the best things to play with is a necklace. You can change its length, pattern, design and thickness to give it an altogether different and exclusive look.

Here is a step-wise guide for making one of such interesting chain projects, that is, a Y-necklace. This is one of the most popular necklace designs among women, especially teenagers. You can make this beautiful necklace using various colors of beads and silver chains.

To make this necklace you will need:

• 1 – Hematite tube-shaped bead of 4x7mm

• 5 – Hematite beads of any other shape that you wish to use of 6mm such as heart or oval. Let us take big oval shaped beads in this case.

• 9 – Polished crystal beads of your favorite color of 4mm

• 1 – silver-tone head pin of 2 inch

• 4 – 2 inch sliver-tone eye pins

• 1 – sliver-tone ring clasp of 7mm

• 2 – silver-tone jump ring of 5mm

• Around 17 medium width silver-tone chain of 1/2 inches each

• Wire cutters

• Chain-nosed and round-nosed pliers

Procedure

1. First you should make the bead section. For that, thread one crystal bead followed by one oval bead and another crystal bead in an eye pin. Make a simple loop at the other end of the pin and cut the extra pin, if remaining.

2. To one end of this eye pin, which contains the loop, attach a chain of three inches in length and at the other end a 11/2 inches long chain.

3. Repeat the steps 1 and 2 in order to make the other part of the necklace.

4. To make the center portion of the necklace, you must make one more section with the crystal and the oval bead and join one of its ends to the existing 11/2 inches chain and the other to a new 11/2 inches long chain.

5. Repeat step 4 to make the other side. This will give you two separate sections of chain with the same configuration and length.

6. Add both the short ends of the two chains along with the beads and another chain of 11/2 inches to a jump ring and close it.

7. Slip a tube bead accompanied by a crystal bead and an oval bead into a head pin and join it to the open end of the 11/2 inches long chain, which was attached to the loop in step 6.

8. Connect one end of the necklace with a spring ring clasp and the other with a jump ring in order to give the necklace the final touch.

This easy-to-make necklace would look wonderful with any casual outfit. Either you can make this for your daughter as a gift to her on her next birthday or guide her to make one of her choice. This could be one of the most fashionable and stylish gifts you can give to your loved one on a special occasion.
