I wish I win the lottery or something!!!!! There are so many beautiful pearls. Too many to choose from. I liked the white Tahitian and the South Sea Keishis From Bali, Indonesia and then I had to force myself to leave the page. :)
Does she have a website of her own other than ebay?

Pearlcat,
I really didn't keep track of how much time it took me to do this particular necklace. I usually work while I am watching TV. :) I think this one might have taken about me 2 full hour shows - my guess.
Thank you barbie biggs. It's not really very heavy.

Yes Pattye, I string the nuggets before I start. Becomes quite time consuming especially when I make necklaces using small seed beads. :)

Thank you all for the compliments. I appreciate it.
Pattye,
Attaching some closeups. I would have done it sooner - but then I started having fun with my camera. :) Hope you can see the crotchet part.
claudenancy,
I used Argentium Silver for the first time on this necklace end of last year...
Hi,
Wanted to share this with you guys. I crotched using Argentium Silver. I used using semi-precious gemstones - Amethyst and Cherry Quartz chips.
Planning to graduate to pearls soon. :)

Hi guys,
Talking about school books do you all know about the store "Half Price Books" (in USA). I was there today and they said they carry textbooks - used I think.

Hi everybody,
Don't know if others are having this problem, but I can't see some of the pics posted in this thread. I can't see Sueki, Caitlin, "A little girl in black pearls" and Anne's (Shell bracelet) pics. I can see the other pics.
Cheers,

Sheri,
Adding to your fan club - love the knitted pearl necklace and the mesh pearl necklace!!! Very unique and beautiful!!!!
Can you please tell me what wooden knitting device you were talking about? I googled it and could not find it on the net. I am guessing it is not knitting needles. :)...
They are so beautiful. They have so much character. Are they Akoyas or Freshwater? My guess is that they are Akoyas. What size are they?

Hello Mr. Shepherd,
All in all the new website is good.
But, I have one suggestion regarding the new website - might not be all that important.
It would be nice if we could see if the items are available or not before we click on the item. Maybe we could have a pop up window with the info...
Hello Pearlcat,
I crotchet necklaces with semi-precious stones. I used Argentium wire 30GA for the last necklace I crotcheted in December and the wires have not tarnished yet. The necklace just sits outside - not in a box or anything and it still looks good.
Hope this helps. The reply might be...
