Intricately, Beautifully Naughty Or Nice By roxyroo on Jan 10, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

A pretty, confetti-coloured cupcake pendand today, in class or at work.

Flip it over and change your look with tiny, sculpted-wire handcuffs.

I bought this item when I posted on an Etsy.com forum asking what I should buy for my birthday, given my penchant for cupcakes. This seller, who makes many beautiful and one-of-a-kind two-sided pendants, suggested her Naughty or Nice necklace. I was sold, quite literally! Nothing suited me more.

The necklace comes on a beautiful bundled-wire chain. The wires are coated with black material and give a unique look. The clasp is also sturdy and unique. The pendant itself is intricately, impeccably designed. The detail work is impressive, as the artisan uses colourful foil as well as tiny wires bent into amazing shapes. The entire piece is coated in a resin that looks very much like glass.

The overall effect is 3-D. Very, very stunning. It's not so large or flashy that it looks tacky or bold, but it does turn heads and makes a statement.

My chain actually broke once, but immediately--about ten minutes after e-mailing her during the holiday season--the seller of this gorgeous necklace sent out a replacement...after putting her chains through tests to ensure I just happened to get a bad apple. Outstanding service indeed, and I have not had a problem with this chain at all.

If you're not into cupcakes or handcuffs, there are plenty of other designs to choose from--birds, fish, retro video game, and beyond! Expect personalized service (a custom order, perhaps?) and a quality piece!
