Interesting! So are all flameball pearls 3rd harvest pearls? Does this make them more rare?

Interesting about the first vs. second harvest difference! Thanks for sharing this info @Pearl Dreams

this is a beautiful strand and looks so lovely with your earrings! Gorgeous drop shapes on those earrings 😍

86C I love your blue akoyas! They are each unique but complement each other well.

Finished! Just in time to wear purple for St. Patrick’s Day. 🍀🤷🏻‍♀️ Thanks so much everyone!! I appreciate all the feedback and learning from everyone.

Hi Jeg, I love how those greens are glowing! Perfect for St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀

Thank you! Beautiful colors on this bracelet!! 🤩

Thank you Pearl Dreams for your advice and great perspective! I do want to see how it wears. Thankfully, I am enjoying the process much more now! CathyKeshi, thank you for your kind words and helpful feedback :)

Hi Pearl Dreams, I did add knots, but I am kind of regretting it a teeny bit because it adds so much negative space and is eating up my thread. Thank you for the suggestion and all of your advice!

Thanks so much Jeg! That is a big compliment! You do amazing things and I am impressed with how creative you are with pearls.

This is very kind of you. I appreciated it and I am sure many others do as well! I am now enjoying knotting instead of getting frustrated using the methods you show.

This tutorial was amazing, Pearl Dreams!

Thank you for the kind words and the excellent thread, Pattye. I had such a hard time choosing from all the colors! I do not mix well with super glue so I tend to shy away from it. I will check out the cement that you recommended.

Okay! I don’t want to speak too soon or be overconfident but I am really liking the double thread method so far. I kind of winged it a little at the beginning but think it’s going ok so far. I don’t have a thread zapper or glue yet but was ready to get started. I don’t know how you guys can...

Thanks Pearl Dreams! I am using Pattye’s Serafil so it should be ok

Thank you Pearl Dreams, Pearlescence and Jeg. I really appreciate hearing everyone’s methods. I have a ton of these purple dyed pearls (not even really sure what they are but I got them a couple years ago in a 32+ inch rope at a vintage store) so I can mess around with them a lot and maybe...

Thank you Pearl Dreams, I think I will have more luck using the double thread method. I find it super tough to get those knots close enough. I appreciate the tutorial, hopefully I can get this way to work. I am also curious if glue is necessary? I am trying to avoid it.

I am trying my second stringing/knotting project and running into issues with loose knots. I have had to reinforce and re-knot some sections. Will this hold up or is it wiser to re-start the project? Thank you for sharing any tips or experiences! I am a beginner clearly

Thank you very much, Jeg! Your photos are gorgeous!

Thank you! Yes, a little too thrilling haha!
