Because I'm on a kick of looking for gothy "statement" necklaces, with skulls. Like ooooh, this Tarina Tarantino White Widow necklace. (clicky-link!)
Or this Betsey Johnson "Vintage Vicky" necklace. (yes, clicky-link!)
Or even this sort of necklace, made from all sorts of bits of vintage jewelry. (yet another clicky-link!)
(Okay, that one isn't the right colors for me, but I like the idea of it.)
One the one hand, I could make a necklace like that pretty easily. (Hoo boy, could I. My stash of vintage jewelry bits is kind of astonishing.) But would I ever wear it? Would it just look like a mess with my style? These are the things I'm not sure of.
This post brought to you by looking for distractions of shiny things, obviously. ::grin::

For perspective, the wedding set I made I would need to charge in that range for because it took me over 20 hours to do it - which is why that kind of beadwork is something I'm only likely to do for myself or for a special occasion. It's not that the material cost so much (though it was probably $25-30 worth), it's the time investment.
