Whether  'tis nobler to be a Bee or a gemmy  Bee that is the question put to me. 

For years I have wanted to find the time to create a bee earring , and somehow just recently I found the time to start, there was quite a few ideas to choose from in my sketch book as this little flying wonder keeps showing up in my head.  The drawing was a good place to start, the next step is the cad model, then cut a few waxes make a few changes to get it right then cut a brass model for molding.  Sounds so simple  but usually this is a multi day project to get it perfect .
