I was staring at my pretty ruby tennis bracelet today and wistfully wishing for its twin so I could wear it as a choker (there's a line in Angela Carter's "The Bloody Chamber" where a character describes an ancestor possessing a choker of rubies, like an extraordinarily precious slit throat ... fitting for a character in the time of the French Revolution), when I thought, "Heeeeeeeeeeeeey ... I've got that little bit of leftover chain just sitting around ...." and attached to the safety chain? Works like a charm!
It's not a perfect solution, but I like the idea enough that I'm going to see who on 47th might have a clasp to match the one on my bracelet: I put on a 5" chain, et voila! tennis necklaces. Anybody else ever give it a shot?
