Necklace decisions
So, it seems that many of you share my taste in jewelry. The biggest vote-getters were for jewelry that's artisan-made, elegant, one-of-a-kind, bold and colorful.
I kept searching and searching for just the sort of necklace I wanted as my congrats-on-your-book present for myself for the book release party. I found a few on Etsy, but wasn't thrilled with any of them, really. I had in mind something a little more architectural, something with a little more solidity than just a string with a pendant on it and some beads, you know?
Then I found these jewelery designers on eBay who make the EXACT kind of necklaces I want. Pics and such beneath the cut.
None of these necklaces are exactly cheap. But I was prepared for that. Also none have earrings, but all have easy-to-match stones in them.
Necklace #1: I love the Paua ovals on either side of the center portion.
Necklace #2: I love these colors but the shape isn't my favorite.
Necklace #3: I love the shape of this one, and I have a special connection to the color green, but I'm not thrilled with the beaded chain. The other three all have silver links or braid.
Necklace #4: This one's the least elaborate. But it's just breathtaking.
So, what do you think, oh blog readers? Which one's your favorite?
