craftgrrl | The creative juice just isn't flowing for me right now.

I had no luck with the FAQ, or with google, so I'm hoping you talented and crafty ladies might be able to help me out. I figure I'm more likely to find an answer here than anywhere else.

Anyway, my boyfriend and I will be celebrating our 6 month anniversary in two weeks, and I already know he's gotten me a ring. No no, not an engagement ring, but think next step down from that. I was planning on getting him a ring as well, but his fingers are getting kind of crowded. So instead of getting him a ring he could wear, I'm thinking of making one that's kind of symbolic, but not wearable. The only material I have suitable for that (I think) is sculpy. I'm going to try my hardest to make some kind of classy and appropriate ring out of sculpy, so I was wondering if you all had any tips? Hints? Links? Is this maybe a bad idea?

That's kind of secondary though to what I really want to do, which is weave him a bracelet with leather lace. So, tips hints or links for that kind of thing? I can't find any decent diy "patterns".
