    Pearl knotting with no tools

    The beaders secret works really well. The trick is to hold the knot on top of the pearl. And then grab the two strands and pull so the knot slides even closer to the pearl. These pearls are tight tight tight. And despite the lower quality, they are very pretty especially when twisted into a...

    Pearl knotting with no tools

    I made this pearl rope this weekend. 5 strands of baoque buttonish whites. I didn't receive what I ordered, they should have been a high quality keshi, but they still made a nice necklace. I like the layers of the long ropes. These will look great with a white t-shirt. Casual but classy...

    Blue baroque akoya pearls

    I'm not sure where my other thread went... but here is the blue baroque strand I'm working on. Are these common? I'd love more in this color and luster. They are more blue and less silver in person. I have to start this over due to a terrible knot that refused to come out.

    Amazing Luster - Cortez Pearl

    The top three will be a three pearl ring. The bottom large will be a simple pendent. I was wearing an bright green shirt and the bottom pearl is reflecting that. It actually has strong blues and reds.
