They completely admitted to running low on time in the development of volume 2, to the point where they almost didn't finish the finale in time for release.

They reused resources multiple times in volume 2. Not just the necklaces.

They reused Team RWBY's dorm room for Team JNPR's and Cinder's dorm rooms. You can see Weiss' Forever Fall painting in the same exact place in Cinder's room, and you can see Yang's The Achieve Men poster in Team JNPR's room in the same exact spot Yang had put it before Team RWBY made bunkbeds.
