Lightning bolt: 25-cent machine, gift. Banana: Harajuku Lovers from somewhere in Westfield that I forgot.For some reason, girlprops has an abundance of phallic symbol necklaces. I would like to add these to my collection:
Above, 1.5" Dagger on Chain, $5.99 at girlprops
Above, "No Smoking" Cigarette Necklace in White with Silver Finish, $6.99 at girlprops
Above, 3.5" Swordfish Stamping on 16" Chain, in Gold with Matte Finish, $9.99 at girlprops. Okay, I know that a swordfish isn't technically a phallic symbol, but I mean, c'mon. It's a swordfish.
Above, 2 and 7/8" Snake on 16" Chain, Gold with Matte Finish, $9.99 at girlprops
Above, 1 x 2" Six Shooter on 18" Chain in Silver, $7.99 at girlpropsFor some reason, I have had no luck in finding cheap tree necklaces. However, there are some semi-pricey ones on amazon:
Above, Mourie Sterling Silver Celtic Birth Charm Tree Pendant for August 17 - September 8, $23.95 from Silver Insanity at amazon.com
Above, Round Tree of Life Pendant in Sterling Silver, $40 from Taos Trading Pendants at amazon.comActually, gun and sword/dagger necklaces aren't that hard to find, just hard to find for cheap. As for tree necklaces, I found two at BP Nordstrom earlier this month, but I didn't buy them because they didn't look very... potent?
Aha-ha. I blame my freshmen English honors teacher who told us that the bedchamber that Odysseus and Penolope retire to in The Odyssey after Odysseus returns home is a symbol of fertility (er... potency?) because the bed is carved out of a tree (and the rest of the room is built around the bed/tree).
I'm suring I'm missing some phallic symbols, so feel free to mention any I forgot! (That are not actually phalluses. Phalli. Whatever. It loses the charm if it is too blatant.)
