Guns turned in to Jewely..why yes its true!

This turned my head while reading the New York times and this could mean and all and all good things in area high in conflict such as most of Africa, oh maybe the middle east. Take a look at these babies!

“These earrings,” “are made from AK-47 gun metal.” its totally gangsta right!?

  Don'tworry no one in America is going to try and take your guns, its only for country that are high in conflict, like Kenya or Congo This Idea and concept is from a foundation called Fonderie 47 It finances nongovernmental organizations, like the Mines Advisory Group, which in turn are contracted by Congo’s government to destroy the weapons. So far, Fonderie 47 has demolished about 6,000 AK47's which that is a big help in ending war in this 3rd world countries and child soldiers to fight in these wars as well.

Yes it hard to believe these earrings are made from AK47's nuts I know but they look lovely and for a good cause unfortunately its a very expensive pair of earrings these babies sold for $23,000! granted every penny of that went to a very good cause and since its the season of giving I though this would be a lovely way to start off December!
