    PP Monthly: Tahitian Earrings

    I am also sorry to hear that jiazzi. I ended up purchasing a pair of these. I called to see if I would be able to bend the posts as per Bernadette's suggestion in another thread, but since they are on extra-strong posts to keep the larger pearls from sagging on the ear, Mia told me I could just...

    "Virtual Pearls" in Second Life

    You're right - completely bizarre! I have never done anything in second life (despite my considerable geek tendencies) but it's good to know I would have pearly options if I did! You are correct, however - yours are much prettier! :D:D

    TPO Spring Sale!

    Sigh - once again my job conspires to keep me from pearly goodness. I only just now came home to the computer and my faves - the grey FW strand and pendant #5 - are both sold out.

    Hong Kong anyone?

    Hmm - for planning (and vacation requesting) purposes, what dates are we talking about exactly?

    Hong Kong anyone?

    Ruckus? Sounds good to me!

    Please help a novice with pearl-buying decision!

    I really don't know how breaking it up would affect the value except to note that most of the value of a Miki strand lies in the clasp, not the pearls. Unless you have another Miki clasp for the bracelet, you will lose a lot of the value of the pearls used in the bracelet and probably with the...

    Fijian Pearls

    Those are really pretty. I have been waiting to see more about Justin Hunter and his pearls here. Thanks for sharing, Jeremy! And I second the (self-)nomination of Waimeamomi to be your intrepid pearl scout :p I'll just have to wait and see Savusavu some other time...

    PP Monthly: Tahitian Earrings

    While I am lusting for the pearls themselves, this special just doesn't tempt me. I have never been a fan of pearl studs, unless they are small buttons. Big round studs just sit plopped on top of my ear and look odd. But I am certainly happy for all of you stud fans!

    Some of my odd pearl creations

    Yes, Sheri - I love your beetle! Completely different thing to take advantage of the beauty of their forms once they are finished with them... I actually love all of your designs - you are so creative!

    Some of my odd pearl creations

    I actually had a Madagascar Hissing Cockroach for a pet once. My undergraduate ecology course was taught by a visiting professor whose specialty was entomology, and at the end of the semester he asked me if I would like to keep the little fellow. He was not exceptionally engaging, as pets go...

    Looking for 22 inch chain

    Couldn't you just buy it by the foot (you'd need 2 feet) and shorten it to 22"? I found it here for $2.04/ft. Even with the cost of a simple clasp and a couple of jump rings, it's pretty cheap. (Plus, enough extra for two 1" earring dangles!)...

    Rare white conch pearls

    Oh, Steve - too funny! Hmm - I may have found my PG title... (of course, it's probably more appropriate for la_corsetiere, but I may lay claim to it for the pun value)

    Rare white conch pearls

    My suspicion is that it is a simple translation error from one of those speech recognition programs. It is obviously supposed to be a "stylish white klonk" :p
