I do that all the time with art - usually because I try harder making other people things, since if I mess up my own work, well, meh. But if I give someone else some second-rate piece I feel really guilty.

exactly! but even if i try the same on something for me, it just never turns out as good... "made with love", i guess

well what kind of theme would you like theoretically? i'd have to look at my materials to judge cost.

well, astronomically, I like the Moon and Venus; the moon b/c it's awesome, and venus b/c it's the planetary ruler of the Taurus, my sign. Or zodiac in general would be cool. or Taurus focused (negative/female, fixed, earth, bull, venus, neck/throat/thyroid). Idk. I like those things especially in my necklaces.

i've done my research on taurus, and i can make necklace of it, even a set perhaps. i would still need to check my supplies (can't until i get over my sinus infection) before i set a price, and then would need length preference and any possible allergies to metal.

ok. that would beawesome! And i can't remember if i liked 7" or 8". and riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. the metal allergy thing. hahaha. ugh. I forgot about that. I have super sensitive skin. I can't wear ANYTHING w/o it reacting, but sterling silver and and super cheap metals react the worse with my skin and have almost immediate reactions (breaking out, extreme itching, puss. yeah. it's bad). I can usually wear gold and i think gold plated and i will usually just have some very limited itching that i can endure and doesn't really bother me.

huh that's weird about the sterling silver... i'm super allergic to cheap metal and the only metals i can wear are gold and silver, so all my jewelry making stuff is in silver. but that's weird about the silver, usually that's a safe one for people with metal allergies. well i can get around that by using limited wire, doing more beading than wire wrapping, and using a leather or ribbon cord. that fits in with the concept i had anyways, so no worries.

would you like a more symbolic/spiritual taurus necklace, using the colors and stones and numbers representative of it, or would you like it more literal, with the bull and earth imagery? or combination of of both? the pendant will probably involve copper (metal of taurus), but i will make it either removable, or long enough to wear over a shirt. i will keep the rest of the necklace as metal-free as i can
the more symbolic version will cost more, since gemstone beads are expensive, but it will be higher quality.

a combination of both would be cool. and thank you! and if you're making a set, could you please mke one venus themed (planetary ruler of Taurus)? sorry i'm asking so much. D:
