Creating Collars or What to Call IT

Creating new patterns sometimes happens the first time around [or across, lol]. Or sometimes, I'll simply be stuck - starting and stopping. Okay, I surrender, I am so stuck! Somebody help me, please?!?

I've been trying combinations of crochet collars and/or neckline embellishments and/or bib necklaces.
Either

• to attach to a shirt already in my wardrobe, 
• or button or ribbon or tie (affix) around my neck, 
• or even over-the-head length.

(NOT one piece to do it all)... And, what to call IT.

I've made more than ten such things. The one pictured is the closest to what I like, with enough extra yarn in case I attach it to a shirt. And, I don't know what to do with IT now... any suggestions?

Next problem of this stuck-in-the-yuck, how to move on to something else?  Every time I go to pick up a project, I start another one of these 'things'!   Please, any help much appreciated!  Thanks.
