"It has to Get ugly before it turns beautiful-you know, Like most newborns."

This phrase came to me as I thought of how "ugly" a situation can get, and as I laid knee deep in one I thought: "Ok, what is the "bright" side of this?" And of course, my reasoning is constantly dipped in sarcasm and I thought what is ugly before it turns beautiful? NEWBORNS! I know, can you believe my audacity?!
But I earned the right to say that cause' I have seen my share of labors, newborn pics and even had my own kid to know that most newborns are funny looking when born and then give them a few months and they get chubby and cute and you want to cuddle them all the time :)
Point is: whatever UGLY situation you are in is transitional and ultimately essential for the BEAUTY of it to reveal itself. Give it time cause':
"It has to Get ugly before it turns beautiful-you know, Like most newborns."
Hand Stamped Cuff Bracelet.
Humor keeps the heart young.

I hand-stamped the phrase in a continuous sentence to wrap around the cuff bracelet to make it a piece of wearable art so that no matter at which angle you look at it-- you get a glimpse at the phrase.

Good Things about this bracelet:
** It is original *MANO Y METAL* design & phrase, hence, One of a Kind item (even if I duplicate it- it will never be identical).
** It is adjustable so can fit *most* wrist sizes!
** It is unisex- man or woman can wear this wide cuff bracelet!
The bracelet measures: 1inch in width and lays nicely as a cuff across the wrist.
It is 100% pure Aluminum.
I hand-stamped the words letter by letter--then I oxidized the letters to make them stand out & contrast against the silver color of the aluminum, followed by polishing the bracelet to give it a gleam, I then applied a clear sealant to the inside of the bracelet as it will be close to your skin and finally curving it by hand to create a lovely and unique cuff bracelet!
