why i love the internet: reason #847

(last jewelry post this week, i swear!)

so i have this other blog i’ve mentioned to you all before – adorned.  well, on that blog, i recently featured the designs of etten eller, a modern jewelry designer who uses vintage watch parts to create some pretty fabulous necklaces.  they’re pretty gorgeous, actually…but as usual, not cheap.  they’re available at barney’s, and pricing runs about $200-300 on each.

at the time, one of my readers commented on the post that she loved the idea, but wasn’t about to spend $300…she was going to make them herself!  and so she has…she emailed today to let me know she’s opened an etsy shop, and is selling some extremely cute versions of the same concept…for $22 each.  how clever is that?

so now, you have a choice – you can pick up the original versions, which i still happen to love.  or you can snag a one-of-a-kind design from the lovely swankyveg, for 1/10 of the price.  and i (very excitedly) get to say i had a tiny hand in this woman’s ingenuity!  

don’t you just love when things line up so perfectly?
