365 Days of Pearls

I do love that GSS strand... it's got the pinks as well as the greens .. And I too thought of a GSS tin cup bracelet! Or make some earrings as well..maybe threaders ? Your knots are great! I was just looking for my gold thread..I couldn't remember if I liked the gold or brass for the gold pearls. Definitely not cream !

Thank you, Katbran! As I mentioned, I’ve worked soooo hard on the knotting. If you figure out which color you like better, the gold or brass, let me know, ok? Looks like the brass has more green in it?

I can't remember which necklace your originally strung to 17", but I was floored by how flattering that length is. I've since restrung a couple of my necklaces to 17". You are an inspiration, BN.

Thank you! I can say the same of you with your amazing layered ropes, brooches, earrings...

Thank you!

Day 322:

Fiji necklace and impala earrings from Heather Benjamin. After going wild for the impala earrings Purranha shared a few weeks back, I asked Heather for a similar pair and here they are! To be honest, I ADORE the entire set Purranha has: impala earrings and pendant, and hawk necklace. I’m hoping to eventually have all these pieces but for now the earrings are a treat!

 

[BWeaves]

WOWZA!!! Cool!

 

[CathyKeshi]

Stunning look, Baby Nurse!

 

[Purranha]

Baby Nurse LOVE LOVE LOVE your pair of impala earrings! The horns are so colorful and delicate! Haha can't wait for you to adopt the rest of the family too and see your pictures. The Fiji pearls are GORG!!!!!!!!

Love the verrsatile impala earrings, worn with one shorter! And the Fijian necklace has so many varied colors! (My PP multicolor Tahitian strand is the one I reach for most often when I'm not wearing a Kamoka pendant.)

Wow! Awesome knotting work on the goldens! Congratulations, BN, as you said "It opens up a lot of possibilities..."

Tiny freshwater pearl necklace, soufflé pearl and seed pearl lined geode earrings, and soufflé pearl ring from little h jewelry.

 

[Katbran]

Cant get much cuter that that little necklace !! Love it on you !! And I'm amazed at the Antelope earrings !! I must have missed Purr's post as I've not seen them before ... or my memory is going...always a possibility !

The Fiji strand is beautiful !! I do love the baroque ones!

 

[Simply adorned]

Love, love, love that soufflé ring!
The Figi pearls in the last post are gorgeous; the Impala earrings are creative and beautiful!

 

[BWeaves]

I love the contrast of the big and little pearls, but those littleh earrings call to me.

 

[SunSeeker]

Love those impala earrings and your tiny fw strand with little h earrings and souffle ring is a delightful combination! Adorbs!

 

[Pareltje]

BN, your impala earrings are really cool. And so are the Fijians and the little h earrings. Love them.

 

[baby nurse]

Thank you, Katbran, Simply adorned, BWeaves, SunSeeker, and Pareltje!

Day 324:

Sorry postings have been so scarce. I have several special pieces that need to be strung/restrung and I want to make sure they’re part of the thread! It’s been taking some time.

I received this new top yesterday which I bought specifically to wear with goldens. I’m not sure i’ll Keep it as it’s a lot of gold, but then it’ll probably fade after it goes through the wash a few times.

Golden South Sea strand from Eiko Pearl, recently shortened.

 

[CathyKeshi]

Never too much gold, when it looks like that Beautiful, Baby Nurse!

 

[baby nurse]

Aww, thanks, Cathy!

 

[BWeaves]

Never too much gold. Keep the shirt. I like it with the goldens.
