I absolutely loved the english version of 'The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo' and thought Rooney Mara was amazing as Lisbeth Salander. I really admired her grungy style and thought her shark tooth ring was the coolest thing ever and since seeing the movie I've been wanting one, yet finally today I was able to find the supplies to make my own. You can semi see the ring in the above image, I wasn't able to find a close up.
1. I had a ring with a flat top, my shark tooth, and a pendant with a hole in the centre for the shark tooth to fit into. All I had to do was cut off the top of the pendant so it would no longer be for a necklace.
2. I next used a nail file to file down the sides and the base of the shark tooth so it would fit inside the pendant and sit flat on the ring.
3. I used super glue to stick the sides of the tooth to the pendant and waited for that to dry before I stuck the whole thing to the ring.
4. I finally stuck the shark tooth and pendant to the ring. I'm now going to put some solder inside the pendant to fill up the empty space and to also keep the shark tooth even more firmly in place. (I just need my dad to help me, he's the one with the tools :P)
I am so happy with how it looks and excited to wear it out, I just hope I don't stab myself, or someone else, with it!
