Thanks, funky_pearl! They are somewhat heavy, though I don't find them difficult over a long period (as opposed to some of my jawbreaker semi-precious necklaces, much shorter but in that 15-20+mm range, and much harder on the neck). My neck doesn't have any issues, though, and I know something...

Lovely. What is it that makes it a harvest strand?

Well...a few appreciative looks, and many...LOOKS ('what is she wearing!')... Verbal compliments from strangers are pretty rare in Boston, I find. A culture thing, maybe. What is to be said, I suppose? 100" of excellent pearls really speak for themselves.

Sometimes I go out, and sometimes, with more editorial looks, it's just about dressing up for the photo. I ran errands in this.

Haha. Down the spine is just a matter of time.

Was definitely inspired by doubledouble's recent post on 18 ways to wear 100" rope. (So awesome, linked here) http://www.theseventhsphinx.com/fashion/features/lady-lightning/http://www.theseventhsphinx.com/fashion/features/lady-lightning/ This is knotted in a psuedo bow. 6.5-7mm, from PP...

I agree with CathyKeshi, beautiful blaze of color!

Wow, analilia, so Hollywood glam with the fur trim and the pearl accents! I love it!

Gorgeous!! I love this green-grey spectrum.

ZOMG BAS - these souffl?s are incredible!! So luxurious to see them twisted like this, such an abundance!

Beautiful, juliebeth! Green tahitians are my favorites - I love that you had a plan from the start to have them frame the pink/purple freshwaters - a great pairing.

Ah, JerseyPearl, what success! I love green Tahitians! This tin cup is fabulous on you! ❤❤❤ Something about the style makes the pearls look even bigger than their 10mm to me. What a handsome piece!

Love it!! Getting so many good ideas from your photos!

LOL JerseyPearl! DK, I've just realized how much more organized and professional I could be being with my plans and projects... This diagram is totally inspiring me right now!

Thanks LitGeek and newberry! Will get it resized this week and see how it goes. I'm concerned that the bumps on the inside of the ring might hurt if I am carrying something heavy (I always seem to be carrying heavy grocery bags and toting stuff around), but I'm intrigued by this archer's bump...

Oooh. I would love to see the ivory, gold, and champagne colors here in a multi-color strand alone together!

Gorgeous! I love the arrangement of two nested together especially - and those nest perfectly! I like a snug double-strand like that, and that length looks so elegant on you, too.

Oooh! Makes me want one just like it :)

I think, about 4 years into my pearl preoccupation (only the last 2 of which really involved owning pearls, the first 2 being research), my style seems to be evolving in several directions simultaneously (or perhaps it is not evolving at all at this point, and just being identified?). I can...
