My Newest and LAST Necklace

September 5th, 2007 @ 12:56 pm by Mrs. Kiwi

I’m not quite sure if I had mentioned it or not, but I bought another necklace for the wedding a few weeks ago at the local Tuesday farmer’s market, handmade!. I have been very bad about posting pics lately as I lost the USB cable to transfer the pictures. Of course, when I borrowed my dad’s cord, ours finally showed up.

After a year and a half of buying various “perfect!” necklaces, I have finally found the right one. Yes, Mr. Kiwi, I know I say that every time, but this time I mean it! It has all the qualities I was looking for: yellow gold, not too long or too short, a dainty filagree look, and matches my ensemble (In my head I’m saying, “ahn-sam”) perfectly.

A couple of things regarding this particular necklace were things I wasn’t looking for, but were even more perfect! For instance, the large briolette shaped swarovski crystal dangling from the chain- it’s a light amber color that matches the crystals in my headpiece. The chain is interspersed with small gold colored seed pearls, the color perfectly matches my headpiece AND my pearl studs I’m going to wear! There was no way I was going to walk away from this!

So, I snatched up the necklace and came home happy. Without further ado…

Inside the box (to the left you can see the pearl earring), sorry it’s so dark!

So, this necklace IS perfect, and I couldn’t be happier!! Mr. Kiwi has made me promise to not buy any more necklaces. I swear, I won’t!

Hey everyone!

Valerie, it was at the Culver City Farmer’s market. Held every Tuesday on Main Street, the maker is Boheme (I think they have a store in West Hollywood), I believe. Hm..

Ha ha!! Found the info:

B.Boheme
9013 1/2 Melrose Ave.
West Hollywood, CA 90069
Phone: 310.902.3334

B. Boheme offers a unique hand-made jewelry collection and accessories that fit both taste and budget. The new jewelry store attracts trendy hipsters, classy professionals, women and men alike. Many celebrities have decorated themselves at B. Boheme, making star-sightings commonplace. Looking for a piece that nobody else has? B. Boheme’s VIP customer service will help you design custom jewelry that meets your every specification.

If you speak to a girl with an accent, tell her Amber (and her dad from Farmer’s market) sent you! Very vague, I know.
