You did a great job Jersey! They look beautiful on you. Are those pearls ever smooth?
That is an awesome tutorial from Pearls Dreams.

when I got those inexpensive ripple pearls little bit ago some of them were missing nacre, and one had a large missing portion near the hole, most of them I just tossed but this one had the most beautiful colors, I was determined to find a way to save it.

I came across some oxidized silver and pave diamond floral bead caps and bought a few, sure enough they fit the pearl like a glove and only the teeniest bit of the missing nacre shows through. so I made a little pendant and was wearing it today.

I tried taking a pic with it on but didn't come out good, so here it is n a piece of cloth.

reminds me of the types of pendants that Sarah offers at Kojima Pearl

Very nice, Hanadama, you can't go wrong with black and white. Gorgeous luster, too.

Hanadama - that rope is so pretty ! The pearls are really lovely - such nice luster. That's a great length as well..I often make ropes between 44-50 inches..I love the way they double !

ckrickett- love the pearls and flannel ! They do go with everything don't they
