Does anyone know where I can buy one of these necklaces in Chicagoland's North Shore? I looked all over Northbrook Court and I can't seem to find a store that sells 'em. I've owned a couple of these necklaces previously: an ex-girlfriend bought me one necklace and another I bought at Devil’s Lake, WI. However, the first one mentioned stretched out a while ago and the second one broke last night. This kind of necklace, as displayed in the pictures below, is a choker-type made of beads.

You could go to Hobby Lobby and get beads to make your own....

Simple, easy, cheap, fun. Yeah, go to a craft store, get tiny beads, "tiger tail" beading thread, and do it yourself. Oh, you'll need a "beading needle" too. It really is fun.

I'm sure that they would be willing too ship. I have done that in the past.
