Necklace Project

Gorgeous necklace.

Not sure I ever posted these shots of the two round strands finished. I strung these myself, and used Pattye's Beaders Secret (great product, btw) I'm still waiting on the original project with the "special" pearls to be completed...some clasp complications are holding us up.

Bravo, bravo!!!! Jersey Pearl, you are an accomplished knotter, and thank you for the kind words about Beader's Secret thread! Lucky you, having an awesome in-house model!

 

[JerseyPearl]

Such an easy product to use, especially for a novice like me! Thanks again Pattye!

 

[Katbran]

Wow you are becoming the knotting queen ! Excellent work ! And that Beaders Secret is really nice to use isn't it !

I'm in a serious drooling dilemma now. All your projects are outstanding and your pup is so adorable! I have yet to string with Pattye's Beader's Secret, which I bought a month ago. Pattye, I'm still working on remodeling... will probably be doing that the rest of my life, it seems. Well, I'm hoping to finish by December. I can't justify any pearl purchases now since there is no need to dress up to work on a house.

Fantastic necklaces, Jersey!!

All your new projects have been amazing. You are making me want a round necklace.

JerseyPearl your finishing on the strand is so neat and professional, I need to redo my DIY strands after seeing yours.

kelluvpearls, Bailey, Tucs, amti, and Katbran thanks!

amti, what's wrong with you? of COURSE one needs a lovely strand of pearls on whilst working around the house! the prettier, the better. (i work from home quite often, yet wear a strand or somesuch EVERY day. too much beauty to just save up for special occasions.)

I completely agree...and I work from home as well.

Bwaaahahhaaaa.... I know, right? Sorry, just seeing this for the first time. I have to agree with you and JP... I did break down and get some more pearls. If you don't hear from me in a while, I'm on internet ban. But, at least I have new pearls!!!

 

[JerseyPearl]

Do show and tell amti, with neck shots please!

 

[amti]

No neck shots for a while... need to buy some Beader's Secret and wanted to see the pearls in person to find the right color. It's all one challenge at a time! I did post pics though. Only took about 200 photos and still can't seem to get the color right.

Hear, Hear! Show and tell!

OK, it took some time to source the clasp to match the rondelles...we couldn't find another fold over clasp identical (or even remotely similar) to the one on the bracelet...so we went another direction and used a pink sapphire encrusted ball clasp. I think it works well with the rondelles! The finished necklace measures out at 21.5" and the bracelet at 7.25"
