Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

[heartofawareness]

One of the best pearl collections out there!

For sure...what a treat to be able to see it all!!

 

[BWeaves]

OOOO, puka shell necklaces! I'm having my crush on David Cassidy flashbacks.

heartofawareness: Wow, you got some nice pieces from little h.

I only just now found where Hisano moved her pieces. On PP, of course. Of course, all the ones I liked are already sold. I can't really complain. I got one of the early pieces, and I love it.

That’s about the nicest compliment ever! And it’s all thanks to you and all of our pearly friends!

Heartofawareness, you certainly found some treasures. That three pearl earring set has always been one of my favorites. There was one in a blue color way a long time ago that I always wanted. Enjoy wearing those beautiful pieces, they are all gorgeous!

Hahaha, BWeaves, I do remember those David Cassidy posters with big puka shells. Or maybe the cover of Tiger Beat magazine? Showing our age here…

Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how one looks at it), I remember Tiger Beat too.. I used to love that magazine

I do love all of these pieces, I wasn't sure what they would look like in person but they really do look like a spliced geode. A LOT of work went into making these and they are stunning! I bet the blue earring set was gorgeous...ugh, the lapis ...to bad I wasn't able to get some of that. Do you have any of the lapis pieces Jeg?

I agree with Jeremy. Your collection is AMAZING!

Can we see your Little H again, Bweaves? That would be a treat! Everyone who has Little H pieces...we'd love to see them!! Let's celebrate Little H designs!!

 

[CatMom]

Here's my haul from the recent Little H offering on PP:

Ruby studs - I love these tiny babies. They really go well with my sliced ruby necklace from @JerseyPearl

Seed Pearl Necklace - I didn't realize how tiny these pearls are but they sure are pretty.

Black diamond earring jacket with golden south sea and tahitian stuffed with Ruby - Now, I hate to say this but these are my favorite from my purchase (who would have known?). I called and had a mini-consult just to see them and then ordered. The black diamonds sparkle like crazy and they are so pretty (the sparkle is coming across as white spots that look like seed pearls. No seed pearls in this, that is the lovely sparkle of the black diamonds). I love that they are jackets and you can see the versality in that they can be worn alone or with any type of stud earring I have. TOTALLY LOVE these.

Blue Sapphire ring - this is very pretty, a little big in size but I do love the way it looks. Those little seed pearls add a sweet touch.

These are my first Little H's and pondering a few more things (mainly earrings). I feel they are a little piece of history since there won't be any more made and they are really gorgeous and such creativity and artistry went into making these gorgeous pieces.

Thanks Catmom!

Thanks so much, heartofawareness! I will try to take some pics later today. I‘m not sure you’ll get a lot of pics here as most of the people I know who have several little h pieces are not current posters on PG. Hope I’m wrong…

aww...too bad...maybe they'll surprise us... Can't wait to see what you have

That’s really sweet, BWeaves. My parents lived a long life, too. I can’t remember their anniversaries, but it was at least 65. I’ll have to ask other family members who are better about remembering occasions than me.

Thanks so much, CatMom! I rarely wear it that long because, well, it’s long. Usually I just wear one of the necklaces at a time.

Not too big on pearls since I wore a big puka shell necklace. Akoya tin cup necklace and freshwater earrings with shells I collected in Sanibel.

You inspired me jeg! I restrung some of my puka's and added some Tiger's eye beads and some natural white FW pearls. I'm happy with how it came out. Here I've layered it with a shell strand from Hawaii.

Wow Catmom you look great! Very summery look and feel...They look great with the pattern on your dress.

I love it, CatMom!!! The coloring of the Tiger’s Eye keeps it looking very Hawaiian, like wooden or seed beads, except nicer. You‘re finding all sorts of things to string! The Kukui nut leis are knotted just like pearls are knotted, except with ribbon. I reknotted a few of them so I could have different lengths.

Oh...they are so beautiful...love them...and you must be an earring lover (are you?) They're all so different and unique yet they follow the same theme. Thanks Jeg for indulging me!!

Some of these make me think of Pomegranates and Figs with all the seeds!

Wow, wow, wow! Tripling down on my last comment!

 

[BWeaves]

My two little h pieces. I bought the enhancer at my first RUCKUS, and the tin-cup at my second RUCKUS. I'm not sure Hisano really wanted to sell the tin-cup because it was displayed with an emerald Grotto pendant that was not an enhancer. She said she had to think about the price, so I think the Grotto pendant and tin-cup were meant to be sold together. My pendant looks great hanging off any strand of pearls, but I really love the pearl and emerald tin-cup with it.

I wear it with jeans and a T shirt more often than I do with a fancy dress. Why save it for good when I can enjoy it all the time?

Thanks jeg, that's what I was going for. Your Little H pieces are so amazing. I love all the earrings so much.

 

[jeg]

Thank you, heartofawareness! I never really considered myself an earring person, but I sure have a lot of them. I went for a long period of time not wearing them at all and my piercings just about closed. Then mostly studs, then some dangles, then no dangles, now studs and dangles all the time.

Haha- I wouldn’t have thought of that, MOPTrumpet

Triple thanks, Jeremy! I was so happy to be able to add the earrings from the pop up to my collection!!!

Thanks so much, Catmom! I’m loving all your projects and remakes. Can’t wait to hear about what you find at the show this weekend. I really need to get to one, but mostly for findings and chains.

I’m glad you were able to get that chain to go with your pendant, BWeaves! It works so perfectly with your pendant.

Absolutely, wear pearls every day, no matter what clothing you're wearing. I'm wearing my 6mm Miki's on the 3mm Akoya 51" strand, my diamond earring jackets with 7mm Akoya studs, and of course, my @jeg inspired net pendant with a diamond studded South Sea 13mm to work with stretch capri pants and a simple white shirt. Pearls just make the whole outfit look better.
