I have never wanted a piece of jewellery so badly! I swear I look at the etsy listing for it every day and have to tell myself I can't afford to just buy it yet. I will save up if I can't win it though. Determined! Then I'm on the swan song ring and maybe the conjoined eagle talon ring and pretty much everything else. Ok, enough gushing.
Anyway, your designs are gorgeous. I bought a tiger knife necklace from you and it's my absolute favorite necklace to wear for so many reasons. Congratulations on your success!
This is an amazing piece of jewelry!! SO dark and SO lovely! Buon Compleanno!
Longtime admirer of your work. I *will* be able to afford the cast harpy-eagle claw one day.
The rose gold is stunning. You make some of the best damn jewelry out there.
Happy birthday! You're awesome.
Aw your jewelry inspires me. I remember The first time I saw your work, and quickly fell in love with the style. Happy 3 years. I'm glad you have a blog, where I can stalk your work. haha
Happy Birthday! I love this ring, so here is my comment!

I enjoy reading your blog. The ring is amazing.
I absolutely LOVE that ring... Sometimes I just pull up your etsy shop to gaze at it dreamily...
Such a wonderfully unique piece!!
And to answer your question; We have two JH Lynch (http://www.jhlynch.org/) prints - Woodland Goddess and Nymph -hanging in our living room that I just adore. "Nymph" was removed late one night from our apartment by a "friend" who thought it should have been thier's... needless to say I made sure Nymph made it's way safely back to my home. And that that "friend" never found their way back to ours... haha :)
Happy Blog-iversary!
xo natalie
I would love to win this piece! I never win anything haha
3 yrs. already!?!?! Wow, amazing! I remember buying a piece from you when you first started blood milk at the art star craft bazaar. It's looks as amazing hanging on the wall as it does on my neck. Anyway, I'm in love with that piece and often look at it online. So here is me leaving a comment to you! Congratulations on your much deserved success, you are a talented lady!
Happy Blog Birthday. I look forward to seeing what the future has in store!
Congratulations on 3 successfully creative years in business, and best wishes for 33 more!
congratulations! your art is beautiful and it's always a pleasure to read about the process.
What a beutiful ring!!! Of course I have to leave a comment. Hope Im lucky enough. ;)
Your work is beautiful and unique and your blog is always very inspiring! Congratulations on your blog's third birthday!
I would love to own a piece of your amazing work! Your rings especially I find fascinating. Happy birthday and much success to come.
Congratulations! Amazing art pieces!
congrats on three years! as always, absolutely love your work and everything that drives it
Mmmm. This ring is so dreamy. Love it.
Congratulations for blog anniversary! :)
Would be happy to win this witchy ring but oh how I wish you have put swan song on a give away. Im drooling over it for so looong. I know it is unfortunately too pricey for me and probably I could never afford to have it but I cant stop looking at it. I hope it will fall down from the sky right on my finger. :) Would be a perfect gift for my birthday in august. Something so beautiful and mystical about that ring. I dont wear jewelry usually (Even though I make jewerly with wire but thats for my family and friends. It simply calms me. :)) but this is the piece I would wear every day and one day I would pass it on to my child. It must be mine one day! :O :))
All in all... guess that with my luck I will just keep on drooling over your work. Even that I have put this comment on a most lucky day of all days in this month. My baby girl has just turned 6 months. . :))
I will definitly keep on following you silently on etsy, blog, tumblr as I did past few months since I have saw your etsy store. You really bring me lots of inspiration as you do to lots of other people following you I guess.
You really bring out what is deeply integrated in every man for ages... That sense for magic and rituals and curiosity for strange that we burry inside as we grow up.
Ps. I love new blog design. ;) Cant wait to see lookbook.
♥

I love your jewelry. I love the pieces I've purchased in the past. I admire your creativity and vision, looking forward to new pieces. And I hope I win this ring!
I've been coveting this (along with most of your other pieces) since I discovered you on Etsy! <3
Lovely. Best wishes...
happy birthday bloodmilk! I've never seen anything like the stuff you've made, it's gorgeous and truly unique and one of a kind, and artfully made :)
oof, this is like my favourite ring! por favor! xx
Your jewelry is all so incredible! Thank you for sharing such creative and inspiring ideas.
Oh wow, longest shot in the world, but I'm certainly leaving my comment! And happy birthday, this is definitely one of the blogs I'm most thankful has lasted this long.
Yay to birthdays! I recently started my jewelry blog and hope that it sees as much success as you have. I do love your work and this is my favourite of all your rings!
am entirely obsessed and madly in love with your pieces.
Hello :)
I am so intrigued by all your work and really really hope to win this ring. It's so pretty, who can resist it? I loved it more because it's plated in rose gold- a symbol of love between me and my husband ( our wedding ring is in rose gold! ). I've been following this blog for quite some time, and I admired your ability to create jewelry using animals parts and casting them into something that brings out the beauty/mystery of the animal it once belonged to.
Great job you've done :))
Love all your work!
Xoxo

Wow! Lots of comments! You are one loved lady! So... am I winning or what? ;)
I love the way the formal, hard-edged logic of the ring gives way to the organic shapes of the sparrow claws so seamlessly. surreal and gorgeous.
i wish i could send you milk & mourn colored balloons... such powerful work you're casting. love love...
I've been in love with this ring since I first spied it in the silver version.
This, like all of your jewellry is stunning. I posted your amour fou ring on Pinterest and I know that I will pin more of your jewellry (and buy more!). Happy Birthday!
