    My pearls

    This is one of my new flower beds that I made this spring. It's my sunset flower bed. I have another one with roses, hardy geraniums and some other perennials, in pink, purple and blue shades. Anyway my new sunset flower bed is so colorful. I plated them roughly in a rainbow order. Yesterday I...

    My pearls

    I saved one little blue purple tahitian from all those blue cmw pearls tahitians and made a leather bracelet with it. With my other blue leather bracelet I also redrilled a pretty circled pearl from Druzydesign and put in on blue leather. It was with akoya keshis before. With my other blue...

    My pearls

    I was thinking about doing that as well KarinK. I am very pleased with the roo leather cords. I thought that I would use the dark brown most byt I accually reach for the navy instead most of the time.

    My pearls

    This is the other ombre blue tahitian strand, it's 19,5 inches long. Jumbled together with my blue tahitian strand from Pearlescence I have added a blue akoya extender to my Pearlescence strand. I'm not remaking this one. And since I did restring my rikitea strand from Cees here is a...

    My pearls

    Thank you eolian pearls. The drillholes are indeed 2mm and the leather 3mmx1mm, I didn't buy any bigger drillbits...and I didn't want to wait for months for round leather. So I folded the end a bit and sort of pushed it through...It works really well. I only have to fold a cm or so.

    My pearls

    Thank you SurfnSci. I am very pleased with them both. They were gorgeous as a rope as well and I might miss the bracelet, but I think that I will get more wear out of them this way. I mostly wear my Happy bracelets at the moment anyway, they are so colorful.

    SurfnSci your ombre akoya tincup is simply stunning. That's such a pretty look. I never did ombre akoyas. I will have to find some multicolored to play with soon

    My pearls

    Thank you @Happy Huku. This is the 21,5 inches long ombre blue tahitian strand, with pearls from cmw pearls, that I remade yesterday. Very wearable. Today I knotted the shorter one, well it didn't turn out to be a double bracelet after all. It was 19,5 inches long. It was a bit dark when I was...

    My pearls

    Thank you TriciaS and CortezPearls. I like the casualness of the leather necklaces and bracelets as well. These are the first that I have ever had, don't know why really. And I really like that they are so flexible, lenghtwise. Bäärtil really is a darling. I put him snuggly like with one of the...

    Pearl Bracelet Poll

    I agree clown are scary looking. I refused to see "It". I think that I read it at one point. Having a lively imagintion really is a double edged sword, yep I can almost see the things that I read about before me and mostly it's a good thing, except for really scary books. But then of course I...

    My pearls

    Thank you eolian pearls. How convinient to have a drillman next to your parents house. I have had a lot of fun with redrilling. Those small tahitians from Druzydesign were easy to redrill, but I had some from Wen Pearls, those really dark ones I bought a couple of years ago, that was hard in the...

    My pearls

    And yes I did make the pearls off center and slightly irregular on purpose. They didn't look right all tidy. With the others leather creations, the south sea and tahitian necklace, with pearls mostly from Pearlescence and some from Druzydesign and Bäärtils necklace/my bracelet I wanted to put...

    My pearls

    Then I was back to redrilling drillholes for my leather creations. These are my Sea pieces, I use navy leather and some blue tahitians. Most of the tahitians are from Druzydesign but that really big tahitian is from Pearlescence.

    My pearls

    More leather creations but first a slight detour. I made another wavestrand. I had all those lovely small tahitian 7-8mm pearls from Druzydesign in front of me and had sorted out all non-peacocks as per usual. Yep, Dark Blob did meet the dreaded scissors. Then it suddenly occurred to me that...
