I am looking at what to make and trying to decide between types of jewelry. So, tell me, what type of jewelry do you feel naked without?

I dont really wear a lot of jewellery, but my earrings are in permanently, and I have three chainmaille bracelets that I dont take off... so I reckon I'd feel naked without them on.

When I was working, I wouldn't leave the house without the whole kit and kaboodle. Now I wear my wedding ring and sometimes rarely something I have made. I've gotten yelled at by my family and friends cause I don't wear much of the things I make. They think I shouldn't leave home without it. The first thing that went was my watch. It's battery went dead and I realized that I didn't need to know what time it was, except when making beads and I have plenty of clocks. That doesn't help, does it, Kimberly?

I'm not going to be much help to you either, I don't were jewelry often, but when I do I want a necklace with matching earrings.
my daughter won't leave the house without her anklet.

I have to have earrings on when I go anywhere. I love earrings
If I feel like it then I will add a necklace or a bracelet (I usually do) but i always wear earrings.

This is too funny. All these jewelry people that hardly ever wear jewelry? I tend to put on a piece; necklace or a couple of bracelets, and then just don't take them off for months at a time...kind of forget that they are there.

Lol! but in my defense, I consider myself more of a doll person, I only make jewelry because it's fun and frivilous and is usually a 'quick' project.

It sometimes depends on where I'm going and what I'm waring. If it's for everyday running around town I'll generally wear just a pair of earrings (unless there's a piece of jewelry I've just finished and s begging to be worn). If it's to church or somewhere where I really want to look nice it's often going to be earrings, pendant/necklace, and a bracelet. (Assuming my outfit allows for a necklace and bracelet to be worn and I have one that at least somewhat matches). Sometimes, although very infrequently, I'll wear one of my chainmaille headdresses to church or out and about in town.

earrings and a bracelet. I'm with Making the best, tend to wear pieces for a time, then rotate them out. Working on the farm though does tend to limit how much i wear daily.

Well I'm going to be the different one. I love jewelry and just can't wear enough of it. My husband bought me a jewelry armoire for Valentine's day a few years ago and it's crammed full, plus four other jewelry boxes on my dresser.
My biggest passion is rings, maybe because I can see them while I'm wearing them unlike a necklace or earrings. I only wish I had more fingers.
I try to wear my own work to advertise but when I see something wonderful someone else has made I want to buy it. I try hard not to look at jewelry in stores.

I usually wear one of my necklaces, and I rotate them from time to time to show them off.
Before I started making my own pieces I wore a gold nugget I found and almost never took it off.
I have ear piercings but have not worn ear jewelry for a long time.
almost never wear rings ( I was an auto mechanic for years ) and rings and working on cars don't mix

When I go somewhere, I am loaded with earings, bracelet, and necklace, all matching if possible. If not, then in the same color scheme. And when I was married, my wedding rings, of course.
I was given two diamond cut 14K rope chains in different lengths, that I wore simultaneously for years. The clasps have worn on them both, so they are in my jewelry box, awaiting fixing. Once that happens, they will be my favs again.

i always have my wedding bands (well, except for the one I lost - oops!) and my silk cord breast cancer awareness bracelet.
But i usually grab at least a bracelet (made by me of course) before I hit the door. Ring if I think of it, necklace if my top's low cut.
For some reason, I hardly ever grab earrings - probably why there aren't that many in my store.

Everyone is all over the place! Guess I just need to create a bit more of everything!
