Octavia Visits Pearl Paradise

Why Blaire,
I think you found your "voice"! Looking forward to seeing more. I agree she needs a crown- or a tiara of pearls -
 
Love the post - seeing PP through Octavia's eyes...
 
Octavia was a joy to have for the day! She got a little tipsy on the sake during lunch. It was all Blaire and I could do to keep her out of the pearls when she came back. That girl loves her pearls!
 
Okay, I guess I'll have to make Octavia a pearl crown -- just as soon as I finish my taxes, that is! ;)
 
Thank you for the great tour, Octavia (or is she HM The Queen Mother?)! Looking forward to many more adventures . . . . :)

My favorite is the first tooth test! She looks so innocently NOT innocent!

Better be careful, Blaire, otherwise you'll lose your identity and we'll all just know you as "Octavia's Mom".

Hey - isn't that Octavia's Mom wearing Octavia's pearls? Why doesn't she get her own?
Hey - Octavia's Mom - can she come out and play?
Hey - wasn't that your girl, Octavia, we saw on Pearl-Guide last month? Oh - I'm sorry - what was your name?
Hi Mrs. Octavia. I was hoping I could come in and play dress-up with Octavia and her pearl necklaces!! How about it?


On a different note, I was AMAZED at the clasp on Jeremy's Wilma Pearls. It was amazing! I'd take just the clasp!

I'd better look out before I fade into the background. I went to lunch today and my friend asked why I didn't bring Octavia. Really. This is the friend I went out with for drinks on Friday night. It's already happening! :eek:
 
I really admire you, Blaire. As we can all readily see, that Octavia is quite a handful!
 
What a fun trip! Thank you for all the pictures! :) Octavia seems to really enjoy life and everything that comes her way, a great companion to have!

Hi Blaire,

Was hitting some art galleries downtown today and popped into Tiffanys for a quick check-------------------------
If you bring Octavia to Portland sometime, we can take her to Tiffany's where a friend now works and do the TOOTH TEST! I gotta say though, our store didn't have anything very exciting, mostly boring diamonds. (That is very disrespectful, huh.) Saw Elsa Peretti "pearls by the yard, pretty but rather small, and this store doesn't stock much of a pearl collection at all. One large SS held in the mouth of a pave diamond crab broach. The best stuff was Paloma Picasso who had big nuggety opaque gem necklaces. Octavia had a LOT more fun at Jeremy's than she ever could at Tiffany's!!!!!

Here is a nice listing for a crown on ebay link. Buy it now is 19.99 This business also has other "medieval" crowns that I haven't looked at yet. I wanted to get this up because it only has three hours to go.

This one might work. It is only 15.99 for Buy it now and has two hours to run. LINK

Here is the store search under pearl crowns and tiaras 19 of them.....LINK

Actually, I already have a rhinestone and pearl tiara (of course)! It's too big. So I'm going to make a little crown entirely of pearls. I was thinking a round one about three inches across at the bottom that flares out at the top.

On the other hand, you made me look at all the tiaras and I almost bought one for me! ;)
 
Haha! That was an entertaining read :) That looked to be so much fun.
