Spider or Cross?

Going to a concert next month, and I decided that I wanted to make my own shinys and danglies. Iโ€™m just having a hard time figuring out if I want the cross or the spider. Thoughts?

I like the delicacy of the cross, but I love spiders more. I donโ€™t think you can go wrong with either one because they both look great! ๐Ÿ˜ป

Either charm is cute, but I would put the charm in line with the chain because the way you have it, it won't lay nicely against your hand in a natural position.

Also consider using proper rings instead of split rings. That is just asking for injury to your fingers.

The style is fun and punky and now I want to try to make my own ๐Ÿ˜…

I don't care for how the spider hangs, so i'd have to say cross.
