365 Days of Pearls

[baby nurse]

Thank you, Charlotta, Bcm21mk, BAS, and Cathy!

Spring must be coming soon...I saw the bunnies (wild) in our yard this afternoon. No babies yet. I just love your chickens and bunnies BN...in my dream world, I would have a chicken coop

 

[Charlotta]

I would like some chickens to, but Not-husband said no...because of my asthma and because we aren't ever home during the weekends half the year and never during the summervacation. He said it would be to difficult, and not nice to the poor chickens, to ship them to the summer cabin almost every friday night as we do with terror-kitten. Kitten likes to travel, she gets treats and possibly mice at the cabin. She caught 2 mice at home recently. Very good kitten ever though she smackes my pearls with her paw every time I try to arrange them on my pearl board. If I correct her she smackes harder....

I don’t think I’ve seen pictures of the bunnies. They are adorable! Love the pearls, too! I remember the Rio strand and golden wave well! And the dash to repack our goodies and head for the airport!

I don’t think I’ve shared pics of the bunnies before. I have a couple of others to post as well.

The dash to the airport—yes.

You already heard this part jeg, but I’ll repeat it again here. I discovered the golden wave 10 minutes before we were due to meet up and leave for the airport. The only way I could buy the strand and meet jeg on time was if I ran. But there were these security ladies in maroon berets everywhere so instead of running I jogged really fast, and actually slowed to a walk when I spotted one of the ladies. Reaching an exit I’d say “Exit?” And the lady in the beret would say “No exit!!” I did this 3 or 4 more times before finally getting to the right exit; security lady compared my passport pic to my face, scanned my badge and I was free to dash the rest of the way to jeg. On time and with with a special piece.

The bunnies are adorable!! And your tin cup style rope with tiny pearls between the large ones is luscious!

Thanks, Pearl Dreams. I think the person who put it together had a good eye for color because they used tiny peach pearls. Not an obvious choice for most people and complements really nicely.

 

[baby nurse]

Thank you, CricketBug and BWeaves!

 

[baby nurse]

BN, your ropes are fabulous!! And bunnies!!! Do your bunnies wear pearls, too?

The bunnies don’t wear pearls but Maple deserves a pearl pic. I’ll work on it!

 

[baby nurse]

Oh, BabyN, hugs and laughter are your gifts. Well, now you've crushed my heart with love, too, with your winter bunnies! I knew it!

Ok, ok, I have to tell you - on the PetProgression, we went from one gekko (how did this gecko get to Pittsburgh????!) to two hamsters to birds to (finally, pets that survived) 2 bunnies. One was a caramel bunny and one was all white. One was half-lop-earred. Just adorable, except I was the cage-cleaner, gross, but they grew fat and glossy, a love story.

Now my son and his wife have 2 bunnies in Finland, and my daughter and husband have 2 very muscular rescue dogs of sturdy random parentage. No chickens. No pearls. No pearls on chickens. What was my point...
idk but thank you for the fun you've brought here!

Haha, glad to hear about the PetProgression!! Yes, certain pets last longer than others. I wish the hamsters/guinea pigs stuck around longer but they are loved just the same.

 

[baby nurse]

JerseyPearl, I’ve never seen a gecko in real life. I imagine it would be startling until you got used to it!

 

[baby nurse]

Hahaha! I was wondering if they were making any babies! They're beautiful! So you have chickens, roosters, bunnies, anything else? And I assume you are living not in a city?

Thank goodness for birth control. Despite the absence of ovaries and uterus, Maple frequently has that lovin’ feeling around Couscous.

We live in a village so, yes, quite pet friendly!

In addition to bunnies and chickens we also have a guinea pig, Licorice. We had 2 but lost one, Vanilla Bean, in early December. We were very sad but Licorice has really come out of her shell and is good friends with Couscous. Not so much with Maple, they’re both quite assertive.

And Couscous

So cute! I didn't know they had mini Rex. I had a very similarly colored full size rabbit as a teen. Thank you for sharing.

I don’t know that there’s a big difference between a mini and regular Rex. My first Rex was supposed to be mini and she was quite big, but we bought her from a pet store rather than a breeder. Maple came from a breeder and is definitely smaller than Willow was but not hugely so.

Wise choice, Charlotta. You really need to be around to have chickens.

You are SO lucky to have a cat! We’d have at least one if I weren’t allergic to them : (. I thoroughly enjoy them from a distance..

Soufflé necklace from Pearl Paradise, metallic freshwater dangles from Kojima Pearl.













Too warm in the cashmere so changed into a flannel shirt.

Love those pink soufflés. Amazing pearls. The green sweater picked up on those gorgeous green overtones. Yummy pearls.

 

[Pearl Dreams]

I'm dying! Couscous is so adorable in this shot!

COUSCOUS! That is the most perfectly adorable photo of a bunny ever That might be my favorite cashmere sweater yet ... er, maybe except for that deep coral salmon one ... or maybe the oatmeal with the intricately knit V neck ... oh WAIT, the ribbon trimmed cardigans but which color ... er ... never mind. I give up. The pearls are lovely

 

[Marianne]

Beautiful pearls and I love your cute critters!

 

[Parrot Lady]

i love your piggies, baby nurse. The first Christmas ex-husband and I were married, he surprised me with a Guinea Pig. She was so precious but so suspiciously fat. Yep, a couple of weeks later she had three piglets. Cutest babies ever. They just don't live nearly long enough.

 

[Andrew M]

Oh, what adorable creatures. Haha, a bunny is definitely something I'd have a soft spot for.
