    My first floating Tahitian pendant, and "how" I made it.

    The pendant is finally floating on a sparkling gold chain :07:. It's raining outside so the light can't bring out the best color, I guess... But can't wait to share the pics! :p

    Today I restrung my Tahitian bracelet, again.

    I hope so, too. When I told the seller about the defective pieces I got, she said she would contact the factory about it. Let's hope it was just that batch.

    Today I restrung my Tahitian bracelet, again.

    Oh Charlotta PLEASE don't feel that way :07:. I said thank you and I meant it. It's a fantastic clasp anyways, and there was no way for you to predict this. I was suspecting the same thing actually, suppliers or something. I bought mine around February this year, so it could be a bad quality...

    Today I restrung my Tahitian bracelet, again.

    Thank you, eolian pearls. I love that of Druzy's shops as well!:D Speaking of size graduation, my original idea of this bracelet was to use only 10 10mm - 11mm pearls and one huge WSS keshi (also from Druzy!) as the focal in the middle, with 5 T's on each side. However, I was hesitant to get the...

    Today I restrung my Tahitian bracelet, again.

    A while back I decided to collect and accumulate some Tahitian pearls to make myself a bracelet. It didn't take long for me to get this far :)​: ​ There were peacock, forest green, purple, blue, pink, bronze, etc., and a cute banded one. I was very happy:arms:​ until I figured it was too tight...

    My first floating Tahitian pendant, and "how" I made it.

    Hi amti, thanks for your kind words. Yes, the pearl came in fully drilled but the hole was not straight, and I only enlarged the hole manually with a reamer (and a bur). It shouldn't have taken that long, if the pearl had been drilled properly in the first place. Also as Douglas pointed out -...

    My second Edison pearl

    jeg, your pearls are stunning:D! I also like how you arranged the pearls on the necklace, very feminine. Thanks for your opinion, too!

    My second Edison pearl

    Thanks, Douglas and Lady_Disdain. Now I see what I missed here: I was just thinking of regular length chain, so only one side faces forward. Long chain and double sided bail definitely solves that. :D

    My second Edison pearl

    I love your 2-in-1 pendant idea, KarinK! Need to give it some thought. I thought of making a "turnable" ring, haven't decided yet.

    My second Edison pearl

    3 votes for pendant! Thank you all! :D When I started to get unsure what to make, I was concerned that a pendant could only show one side of the pearl, as only one side faces out, while a ring can show the whole pearl. TBH I am surprised you all think the other way around... Did I miss...

    My second Edison pearl

    Happy Sunday (or Monday for friends in Asia and Europe) everyone! It was funny when I typed "My " in the title, the system automatically popped up four "My first xxxxxx" titles I used before. But this time it's my second Edison pearl. :p This is a 13.5mm plumpy drop that I bought to make...

    Beautiful pearl and pendant. I am no expert but to me it looks like a WSS baroque with cream overtone.
