And then...

    Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

    This is the one that started it all, taken on the way to the airport pretty much immediately after I bought it last October in Hanalei, Hawaii. I wear it almost every day and it goes with nearly everything. Without a doubt, it's my favorite necklace. Hi, I'm Jess and I'm new, but I've been...

    So many questions from a newbie on the prowl

    Hi, all! I'm a frequent jewelry-making dabbler who has her hands in all kinds of things. Usually my creations wind up in the hands of friends and family, or more frequently, in my own collection or as part of a costume I've put together. Last year while vacationing for the first time in Kauai...
