looking for a new necklace

[heyleroy]

preferably silver around 100-150. the apc feather pendant is taking too long so i think i am going to cancel my order (they told me they had a problem with production and didn't know when it would be available). i'm looking for something along those lines, though-so if anyone has any suggestions that would be great.

A little pricey dude...I could make that in an hour for $5. I used to order a bunch of cheap necklace pieces and reassemble them. Saves money, it's fun and it's more creative.

i'm kind of into that...

where did you order your pieces from?

Yea, most of those pendant things like that one, margiela and alex&chloe stuff can be duplicated on the cheep. There are a few guys on sufu who have self made alex&chloe necklaces and Red made a margiela bullet one.

Spencers, Hot Topic or any lame mall freak stores are usually good for basics. You can buy a million cheap chains and charms and put them together. I just melded them with older stuff. You will find cool pieces at many online sites or mall stores. You just have to mix-and-match to make the perfect set. My fav is an old pewter dragon pendant from Guess that I wear on an army dog-tag chain that I shortened to almost a choker. I saved a bunch of rings in case it broke (which it has many times). Other favs are a small painted pewter double-headed eagle and a gun-metal fleur-de-lys that I got at a nerdy medieval festival which I wear on the dog-tag chain or on an old steel o-link chain that originated from who knows where. I get comments on them almost every time I go out and I've been wearing them for years. Most of my chains I converted to lobster claws because those threaded ones tend to fall off. I lost a nice blue metal Eye of Ra pendant and chain that way once.... Good for mythy and nerdy stuff: http://www.magickaljewelryandtalisma...nnecklaces.htm

The APC silver feather pendant looks like a tongue, or labia.

The thorn pendants have an appeal to me. The stag-horned beetle one in particular. The mouse-skull was a bit mall-goth for me. And the bird beaks are nice if not a bit abstract and dangerous-looking. What's that called when they poke a hole in your neck to open up a passageway for air? uh...

But yeah. I dunno. I've never bought jewelry for myself.

Golly, those are nice.

I was just talking with this guy a minute ago and he was asking if we sold i.o.d by Steven Trussell in the store. I hadn't heard of him so I looked it up. Some pretty cool stuff. Check it out:

They have a feather necklace on here kinda similar to APC, a bit smaller though...
Personally I like the brass nuckles.
What about you?

that IOD stuff is very cool.
