I bought a wonderful strand of metallic keishi pearls from Pattye a couple of weeks ago. I have been making "bouquet" pendants and wanted to share few. FYI, the white freshwater pearls on the bottom of 2 pendants measure 11.5mm and the blue akoya is from PP. Thanks Pattye for such...

I bought a strand of baroque Tahitians. A first for me!!!

I agree!!!!

Oohhh... I missed out on the 700 dollar strands due to travel today. Darn!!!!

I like how I can navigate and see more items per page, but I think the white-blue is a bit harsh on the eyes. That being said, I do understand and appreciate how much hard work went into designing a new site!
