We'd watch tv shows together before I went to school. Mainly, The Little House on the Prairie, Leave it to Beaver, Father Knows Best, I Dream of Jeannie, and my personal favorite, Bewitched.
I enjoyed watching the shows, but I was never extremely attentive. I'm not the most attentive person there ever was, but I do remember one thing about my beloved Bewitched: Samantha's necklace.
I specifically remember telling my mom that I liked her necklace; I liked the way it "sat." I didnt' know the terminology then, but I think what I was trying to say was I like how her necklace doesn't have a bale. The heart hangs from two seperate chains.
Come to find out, I'm not the only one to have noticed Sam's necklace. There's several websites talking of how the heart was a gift to Elizabeth Montgomery (Samantha Stevens) from her husband, the director of Bewitched. It was special to her, as she wore it on episodes 2-101, and then some.
The reason I thought about it was because I'm converting lots of pieces of Cherche' jewelry into necklaces, and in my mind, they will sit this way. My jeweler will have to confirm that, but that's the plan.
This memory of watching Bewitched just tickles me because even as a little girl, I noticed this. I noticed this necklace and liked something about it. My career in the jewelry business wasn't unbelievably obvious from childhood till now, but if I stop and think about it, this has been a long time coming.
