Gold netted necklace

I have been working the past few days on this necklace, which is one of the more demanding jewelry projects I've undertaken, at least in terms of time spent.  However, I was happy doing it, because as it was working up, I felt that I had what I really wanted - the perfect rope necklace.
It is everything I wanted.  I love the colors, the weight, the boldness and the delicacy.  It is exactly what I have been trying for months to achieve.

However, I don't like how it looks when I put it on.  I don't know why.  I liked the other rope necklaces I've made.  This is also the first time I've felt this way trying on a piece of jewelry I've made.  I'm  always in love with my own work (vanity), and I should love this piece most of all.  I don't, and it is making me very sad.

    That is sad, when you have put so much time, and yourself into it. Maybe keep trying it with different outfits....or moods -you never know!! It is a great necklace. Hugs lin

    It looks perfect here - could be the "prom" let down. Wear it Tuesday so we can all see it! :)
