This is the original post, where I basically asked for help UWP-ifying it:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jewelers-other-crafty-gals-how-to-revamp-this-butterfly-necklace" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....y-necklace</a></p> <p>As I said, in the end, the sheer size of this butterfly is what caused problem. Mochi, as you said, it probably can't take much more embellishment, so I'm glad the necklace gets a thumbs up so far. I think it will tone it down even more if I wear a jacket, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/butterfly-in-chains-necklace#post-532607 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 06:30:52 +0000 Marley 532607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE!

What I would advise (and in this case, see that you are already doing) is to keep the idea simple. So what you've done works for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/butterfly-in-chains-necklace#post-532261 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 20:36:19 +0000 Amy 532261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/butterfly-in-chains-necklace#post-532257 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 20:33:22 +0000 Kirti 532257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! I love the necklace </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/butterfly-in-chains-necklace#post-532200 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 19:53:33 +0000 rae 532200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So many of you were very helpful with ideas for my butterfly necklace a while back. I've been struggling with it, and haven't bought gold leaf or anything, because the darn butterfly is so big that leather cords and most of my chains get dwarfed and make it look even bigger and sillier than it already is. </p> <p>I finally tried this large scale chain lariat necklace, an orphan for a while because it came off as club-wear. I think I've finally made peace with this piece - I dig the whole butterfly-on-a-leash image - but do you think it's ridiculous? Please ignore the bra outline in #1 - was too lazy to change. </p> <p>Yay = poignant/edgy/interesting/artsy<br /> Nay = still looks too goofy </p>
