Would have loved to have seen that! Thanks, Kat! I do :) That's so unfortunate, Cathy!

Thanks, y'all! I love hearing that story Cathy -- did you ever find those pearls your dad was talking about?

Thank you, BWeaves and Cricket!

Pretty combo!

I remade these earring dangles recently - I can't seem to find photos of the original (or didn't look hard enough ;) ), but I like these much better!

Thanks, Kay and Kat! -- I hope someone will ;)

Thank you, Marianne, BWeaves, jesskat, cricket, PD, and Gems :) Your kind words make my day brighter!

Thank you, Kat and O's Mom!!

Thank you Charlotta and Pattye! You totally get me, Pattye! I did solder the silver discs and loops together :)
