Well, I did just that, and I am very pleased with the result. I made a Sophie pendant for myself. And because Sophie was one of a kind, it's probably the only Sophie necklace I will ever make. I included her name on the chain on a little tab of silver that I stamped, and I added three little pearls to dangle from the chain, as pearls represent tears, because, yes, I'm still crying.
I don't often set out to make a piece of jewelry for myself, specifically, anymore. That's not to say that I don't occasionally think of a design, make it with the intention of offering it for sale, and decide that I need one like it, then make another one for me. That does happen. But I don't often design something with me in mind, then make it, knowing that I'll never make another one exactly like it.

Dana, I'm so happy that you made a special piece of jewelry for yourself representing Sophie. What a wonderful keepsake to have. I know your little Sophie was a special little girl and very dear to your heart. I'm a firm believer that losing a pet is the same painful heartbreak as losing a human family member. I could never bear the thought of living without my best friend Nicho. I always knew that some day I would be faced with saying goodbye, but never thought that day would actually come. Well, sadly it did. I cry silent tears everyday because I miss him so much. I know I gave him the best possible life a dog could ever wish for and he loved me just as much as I loved him, but time flew by far too quick. I wish he was still there to great me when I come home from work everyday and lick my face a thousand licks before tucking in at night. You were always there for me little buddy and I hope you know how much you are deeply loved and missed. I hope you are running around in heaven playful and happy. Till we meet again baby boy!!
