 Even a Baseball is meaningful sometimes! A special
 homerun hit baseball became a wearable piece of art to
 remember her sons homerun. The baseball was broke upon
 being hit and the leather was brought to me to try and
 preserve it in some functional way. She now has a bracelet
 to show off her sons accomplishment!
