kye says:This is such a pretty, colorful necklace. (I recently made Christmas presents for my nieces using the same butterflies. They were yellow, pink and purple.) I really like the way you brought in so many varied components and colors for your design.

Kathryn R says:This darling necklace has a Retro feel to it, with the pink butterfly and go-go rings! Then you photographed it against a turquoise background – perfect! And so so cute! You’ve got me longing for spring now!
