I think Emma’s poster featured the swan necklace just because it is an item closely associated with her. The majority of the posters featured portable items and for the style of poster, the swan necklace wouyuld look much better than Emma’s car.

I actually think the swan necklace is most apropos of all possible objects here. The necklace – from Emma’s point of view – symbolized love, then symbolized her distrust and refusal to love, and then she realized she could accept and even embrace her past instead of being stuck in and stunted by it. I think she put the necklace on again after Neal died, not just to honor him as the father of her child and a significant part of her past, but to symbolize the work Emma had done to overcome that past and move forward. So while some, I’m sure, are going to grab onto the necklace and say it has to do directly with Neal, her TL, blah blah blah, I think at this point the necklace has very little to do with Neal and everything to do with the person Emma has become since then.

Agreed.

I think the posters look good.
