My wife did the same for me last year.
She ordered them from a silversmith in the UK, where did yours come from?

At the big Antique store on Calgary Trail just before Whyte. It was one of a kind but they had others.
Ooops I just seen after I posted you are from Calgary, but you would be surprised what you find at any of those stores.

Wow, that's great, would have never thought of tying in a safety pin like that. What a great idea. Good for putting it on your lucky hat

Or a kilt pin . need to practice more with epoxy. The fly in the pic is literally tied with the pin as a on going ingredient. As opposed to a pre existing pin. Sore very sore way to tie.

That what I was thinking as I looked at it. It looks brilliant! But it would be a challenge to tie and have it look nice. You did an amazing job. And, it looks like you ground the tip of the hook off, which I think looks really nice.
