Hello Jade Ladies,

I need your advice! Uli's necklace musings got me thinking about this necklace I have (purchased from All About Jade and it was pricey) that I absolutely love but never wear because I find it to be too long to be practical.

Should I keep it as is, or should I have it split it into a shorter length necklace and a bracelet which I am more likely to wear?

The lengths of the two pieces would be like this (I need to remove 18 beads and 4 of the small beads for a bracelet).

If you hardly wear this necklace then I would split it into a bracelet and a shorter chain. Maybe you can even save two beads for earrings [emoji3]
 
Hi C Rose I think it would depend on the length of the necklace. It’s a big pendant and the pig and some beads would make it even more substantial so I think it would look better on a longer chain. [emoji4]

Thanks 2B! Plus it makes us heavier. I think I will attempt to do something with the thread instead of the beads. I am weeding through my collection to see what I will wear and what I may not, but I always loved this pendant [emoji4]

Hello! I don't know if anyone remembers me from the old threads - it has been 5~6 years!
There are so many posts for me to catch up on but I love looking at everyone's collection [emoji41]

I am currently wearing one of my older bangles (I've named her Seimei). She is a princess cut with a slightly flat inner surface.

Hello iiturtle I remember you! [emoji847] Your princess is beautiful. [emoji4] I love how the shape is soft but the colours are lively and bold. I would imagine your bangle is comfortable to wear with the slightly flattened inner diameter.

Thank you 2boys! She is very comfortable to wear and she doesn't 'dig' into my arm, as some D-shaped bangles will. She doesn't leave any pressure markings, if you will :P

So pretty! I love the darker green areas!
Thanks isha! I think they give the bangle more dimension!

Hi iiturtle! Welcome back and nice to meet you. Thank you for sharing, your princess bangle is a dream! Gorgeous pop of green, so vibrant, I can feel its energy!

CR, I love the subtle changes in Half and Half's colors. Perfect buttery sunshine!
