Maybe because it’s miserably cold and snowy out tonight and this necklace looks like tiny flags waving in the summer breeze at a marina … or maybe I just need another cup of coffee … but I think this is sweet.

By Shabby Apple, this Penelope necklace is made of, well, other than the stated description of “colorful rectangular charms” (and they certainly are), I couldn’t tell you. But it’s only USD $50 so it’s the proverbial cheap and cheerful.
