Sadly, yes it taxes the lungs to be on the other side of a drawing chimney for months. Who knew?
Some neighbors have been supplementing their normal heating systems with wood-burning this winter.

Anyway, Winter is my favorite season (cold crisp air, snow and cashmere) so when the smoke clears, fires will go back to Pure Romance, and photos of your gorgeous collection of pearls (and cashmere).

**p.s. don't worry about pearl hoarding until you can fill a claw-footed bathtub to the rim. Or maybe a basement. That's the Rule.**

Hilarious, lisa c!! You must be on the other forum as well—- I made a pearl hoarding comment there! I may have made one here recently as well lol.

Thank you for the nice remarks : )

Day 275:

Fireball pendant from Pearl Paradise and metallic freshwater dangles.

JerseyPearl · Jan 16, 2018

Love that fireball pendant...but I am blown away by the sharp luster on those earrings. Amazing.

That's incredibly lovely, Baby Nurse! I don't own a big fireball, but when I see one that nice, I have a secret wish to find one, and ask Hisano to put tiny gemstone eyes for an octopus/squid sea creature

MSC · Jan 16, 2018

Oh, I love this combo, especially the metallic earrings! This fireball is gorgeous (though your purple one is still my favorite).

I absolutely LOVE that combination. I'm a big fan of fireballs and yours is a beauty. I love the chain it's on, too!

Katbran · Jan 18, 2018

Oh my that is a lovely one..I really like the ones with the goldfish tails ! I have a little bag of them somewhere and was trying to sort out what bail to use.... I like the idea of using a pearl or two. All the pearls your pendant are gorgeous !

I too like the box chain !

Sanippy · Jan 18, 2018

Day 276:

Two more new purchases from Catherine Cardellini: a 15.5” white Keshi necklace and an 18” lavender one that I hooked together. The metallic lavender pendant I picked up during a Pearl Paradise Black Friday sale 2 years ago. Earrings are metallic lavender drops also from Pearl Paradise, purchased about 4 years ago.
