Jewelry: "But sir, the lady is a pirate!"
I was struck with another burst of creativity, this time coming from rummaging through my scraps for a certain earring and instead finding a rhinestone skull slider I'd intended to "do something with." =)
The components in this one are the chrome slider with rhinestones on both the skull+bones charm and the base, silver chain, silver filigree lace, cut glass crystals, and well-loved-super-comfy soft leather. Unlike scratchy collar leather, this leather is actually lined with a suede-like texture on the back, which makes it completely comfortable.
It's important to note that the pendant is actually situated on the left side of the choker, like so:
I adore this one. I'm especially proud, since I'd never made a choker before. But I can't think of a single time to wear it. Anyone into goth/victorian/pirate chic? I'm putting it up for grabs.
