    Exotics!!!

    Thanks Mervione and Pearlcat: Appreciate the commismeration. Somebody I know just spent $400.00 for ONE BOOK. At least I haven't had that yet. Best of all I can tune in to my friends here and look at pearls when I need a break. The discipline part comes in when 10 minutes is up and it's time...

    Some of my odd pearl creations

    I was kind of liking them until you guys mentioned anatomy lab. I couldn't eat meat for a year after that class. We would go to a restaurant (my husband and sister and I) and when I smelled meat I smelled phenyl formalin. I new it couldn't logically be there but I still smelled it. barbie

    Gold with lemon diamonds

    Beautiful pearl. The lemon diamonds are a great color. GSS are some of my favorite's also. The luster of good SS's is so amazing. Oh, and round is pretty boring. The shape of your pearl is great. I'll take off round/baroque with luster and orient any day. I adore your design. Great work...

    Exotics!!!

    Still totally in love with the gold triple. However, they would just about pay for my books for school for fall. Funny thing is I'll probably spend just as much time staring at those books as I would the pearls. Different benefit though. I'm gonna miss those pearls. I look at them every...

    Claudie Pl

    Thank you Anna. And like Knotty, these pictures inspire me to want to indulge in peyote stitch. Are those actually natural pearls or natural colors? It says natural pearls and diamonds, jade, etc. Amazing either way. barbie

    Some of my odd pearl creations

    Lisa: It may be reasonably okay to use a polishing cloth gently on the metal parts if they are tarnishing and then wipe the pearls afterwards. I have and it doesn't seem to do them any harm. But be careful to wipe the pearls off after as the cloth is impregnated with something to remove the...

    Ebay/etsy seller has Sea of Cortez coin pearls?

    Thanks for commenting Douglas. I have to admit, I was disappointed that someone would say a pearl was, not a Sea of Cortez, (people will tell lies), but an ugly Sea of Cortez. Argh, indeed!

    16mm OMG :eek:

    Dear Pearly Shell: I think there may be a "Pearl Fairy". But....maybe we have to know their name, and maybe they work on their own schedule. Oh, and you have to let them know what you want. :p In my experience the Pearl Fairy doesn't read minds. At least not my mind.:eek: On the other...

    Q about pearl necklace worn in North by Northwest

    You are so right Johanna: In addition, a size 6-7 or 7-8mm white pearl necklace is lovely and when of good quality people stop and say, "Ohh, Ahh". I have heard a number of people make comments like, "Oh, how classic".

    Have you checked out Care Ehret's latest?

    Are they gone already? I've looked twice. Of course I'm 53. I may be looking and not seeing. But I think I remember them. You didn't copy the picture did you? If they re the ones I remember, they were great! barbie Ditto on the Sea of Cortez Pearls. I'd love the rainbow bracelet!
