    Who were the lucky ducks who got the fireballs?

    Is anyone going to order the 10-11mm white fw necklace?? Seems like a good price for such large pearls.

    Who were the lucky ducks who got the fireballs?

    Yeah, I'm talking about TPO. AH! They were so pretty. I saw the natural akoya, but I would've wanted the fireballs more. :( Maybe they'll get a few more in stock ??

    Who were the lucky ducks who got the fireballs?

    I'm bummed I missed them!! Oh well, after the tahitian baroques, they were a little out of the budget ;)

    Have LBCers ever done a Yuletide Swap?

    Not really, but it'd be tons easier than doing a piece at any rate. What kind do you mean?? I've never really done them before... Hmm.. I could probably do something pretty basic... Pendents would be the easiest, of course. I don't know how I would fire circular beads w/o the glaze sticking...

    Have LBCers ever done a Yuletide Swap?

    Ooh! This sounds like fun! Too bad I'm not a lowly beader :( I could swap custom pottery. Hehehe... pearls for pottery! I'll be quiet now ;)

    Can't decide- FW or Tahitian Baroques

    I will!! I think I'll give my bank account a breather before I take another plunge... The dangly baroque earrings at PP are to die for! (and pretty cheap!) I'm actually really glad I went ahead and went a little bigger, they'll be much more impressive (I hope)! Funny thing is that I HATED the...

    Can't decide- FW or Tahitian Baroques

    Okay, so I decided to go a little bigger and a little better qaulity (AA+/AAA versus AA+) So I ended up with theeeeeeeeeeese :D http://www.pearlparadise.com/detail.aspx?ID=2325

    Can't decide- FW or Tahitian Baroques

    Well, I'm 5'7" and about 130 pounds, so I don't really know where that puts me on the general scale of pearls. The ones I'm looking at are 7.8-10.3mm..

    Can't decide- FW or Tahitian Baroques

    Hanaleimom- WOW! Those are GORGEOUS!! I thought they'd be tons smaller (I was picturing them next to my 7-8mm freshadamas). I think I'll go ahead and order them this afternoon! So exciting!!

    Can't decide- FW or Tahitian Baroques

    New question :D Can someone show me some pics of a tahitian strand w/ the approximate size? I've been seeing something like 8-10mm, but it's hard to picture that on. (I've also considered branching out and going with something a little lighter- maybe a silver-aqua)

    Pearl Paradise keshi strands

    I was thinking about them too... but I decided I wanted baroques more and 2 necklaces just aren't in the budget!!

    Can't decide- FW or Tahitian Baroques

    :D Yay! I emailed Kristen@pearlparadise.com a little while ago, but I'm so glad we can find another strand! Ah! I love PP!

    Can't decide- FW or Tahitian Baroques

    No! Now I really, really want the tahitians! :( I have bad karma. Anyway, I'm going to email PP now and hopefully we can find something!

    Can't decide- FW or Tahitian Baroques

    Nope... I showed all my friends the link, but not my Family. Oh well, I guess they're gone :( I'll email PP tomorrow. I hope they have something else that I love (and can afford)!

    Can't decide- FW or Tahitian Baroques

    OHMYGOD!! I think it sold out!! Who poached my pearls?? :( I'm going to go cry now! Do you think PP can match me a strand in that general price figure ($400)? I'm really upset!

    Can't decide- FW or Tahitian Baroques

    This made me smile :) I think I'm going to get the Tahitians, but I'm going to wait a little bit longer until I pad my pearl fund a little bit and get through midterms with great grades (what better motivation to do well than tahitians?) I'm happy; I just got an A on one of my essays (good...

    Newbie in search of pearls for a girlfriend

    Ohh... Okay then. I have to say, I think an 18" strand will be much easier to wear. You won't sacrifice the WOW, I promise ;) My advice: Buy the 7-8mm full freshadama white set with Rose overtones (they mimic the akoya hanadamas and are universally flattering) and buy some mahogany -here's the...
