Fresh Baked says:So some of us get the reference. Joan Jett would be proud! I love how you’ve incorporated some open links into the design. Love it!

JenniferLynn says:Thanks all. I was apprehensive about putting my designs on here, but I said go for it! Everybody is so darn nice! Thanks again!

Little Round Chick says:Joan Jett? Who is Joan Jett? I’m so much older than all of you I think I was past my pop music phase when she made the scene. (I’ve been around since the earth cooled…) She was a musician…. right?
Love the necklace and the ear rings are just great!

JenniferLynn says:You’re kidding, right? “I hate myself for loving you” that was a great song.
No memories popped up? I forgive you!

Deb Harding says:Nancy, Joan Jett was in group called The Runaways in about 1975-76. Part of the glam rock scene…not pop at all. Their big hit was “Cherry Bomb!” I love that song. Then she went solo. Her big solo hit was “I Love Rock And Roll” next line…so put another dime in the jukebox baby. Joan Jett was super hott, tough with a gravelly voice, almost always wore leather. She is awesome!!!!

JenniferLynn says:I hoped she had a daughter; I was going to make a necklace and name it after her, but alas no daughter or son.
So Nancy what kind of music do you like?
On Jan 20, 2013 at 8:08 pm #
Deb Harding says:Well since Joan is gay and is not in any relationship like Rosie O’Donnel so…
On Jan 20, 2013 at 8:20 pm #
JenniferLynn says:Oh. I wasn’t aware. Obviously, huh? However, some gay celebrities have children, OK well anyway!
On Jan 20, 2013 at 9:52 pm #
Deb Harding says:I didn’t know it…just suspected it…until the movie The Runaways came.out. I don’t think she’s really ever been in a long.term relationship though. She’s still so great though!!!
On Jan 21, 2013 at 9:23 am #
JenniferLynn says:I looked it up when I made the necklace & I thought I read she got married to a dude. Last night found out she’d been seen with Carmen Electra holding hands. Oh, well before I name another piece, I’ll have to do more research.

Deb Harding says:She’s still Joan Jett…it doesn’t change her awesome talent.
