Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

CatMom, I forgot to ask you whether you’ve done more wire-wrapping or stringing?

Two feather pearl mix strands from Kojima, and wintry earrings I found at a holiday show years ago.

I love these jeg! Perfect for winter. I haven't done a lot lately but I did get some more Rikitea Tahitians and I took apart the bracelet I had made and split it into two bracelets, a darker one and one that's more on the lighter, bluer side.

Yesterday I wore my coin pearls from Karen Brown Jewelry, with freshwater keshi from Kojima. Mikimoto yellow gold huggie earrings.

I also just received my purchases from Kojima's 36% off sale. Cascade earrings and a feather pendant (which I unfortunately photographed wrong side up). I normally don't wear long earrings, but I liked the asymmetry of these, and they are lightweight. They are much more dainty than they look in photos. They have a nice silver blue color that will go with my blue baroque akoyas. And I like the organic "coral" shape of the dangles.

Oh yay, CatMom! They look great! I’m sorry to not reply right away- I did a post and run. Actually more like post and fly, as I took off for Hawaii.
BWeaves, very fun, cool earrings!

Last spring I followed this little hula dog on one of my early morning walks in Waikiki, and I posted this pic.

This morning I caught up with the same dog, new lei, hanging at the beach.

Wearing my Vietnamese blue akoyas today. They are like little light bulbs in person.

Also, super stoked because I just snagged a natural chocolate tahitian pearl from Hisano's live event today! Can't wait to see it in person.

Marianne: I'm so glad you got that rainbow Tahitian drop T1-7 I was drooling over. I have one similar from Kamoka that I bought last year, so I couldn't justify getting it. I'm so glad it stayed in the Pearl Guide family!

lary007: Ooo, love your BBAs. I bet they look like little blue soap bubbles in person.

JEG: Hula dog is adorable. As is traveling pearl bunny.

Yes! The rainbow pearl! I can't wait to see what you do with it @Marianne

Here is the clip of that pearl -

How lucky to be in Hawaii and I love the hula dog! I happen to be in FL for the next couple months and don't have a lot with me.
 
The PP Tahitian live event made me dig out my shiniest Tahitians. Since I was going out for lunch today, I felt like dressing up a bit.

SoC ring. Pearl from Douglas. Frost setting in rose gold from PP.
Tahitian ring in yellow gold from Kamoka.

Longer ombre' bubble strand from Kojima.
TNT (circled Tahitians and tourmalines) strand from Ocean's Cove.
La Perlagrina and La Petite Perlagrina pendants from Kamoka. The smaller drop reminds me of T1-7 rainbow pearl that I was drooling over, and Marianne bought.
Opal and Tahitian drop earrings from Kojima.

Marianne and lary007, I can’t wait to see what you do with your new T’s!
BWeaves, love all the colorful Tahitians you were decked out in!
CatMom, I’ve been on the lookout for the little hula dog, but I haven’t seen him/her again. Still time….

I managed to find a pair of earrings while window shopping. Mother of Pearl hibiscus with 14kt highlights.

I’ll have to see if I can get as much of a color play as the stock photos when I get by my windows at home-

Visiting Dad today. White pearls.

Natural white 8 mm Hanadama rope from PP with disco ball screw clasp (white gold and CZs which sparkle like crazy in the right light).
Hanadama 9mm studs from PP. These are pinked, because they looked better on my ear than the natural white ones.
SS and freshwater tin-cup from Kojima.
Giant feather pendant from Kojima.
Tahitian ring from Kamoka
Mom's akoya ring. I didn't like this ring when my Mom wore it, but I've grown to appreciate it. It's unusually comfortable for a large ring.
Mom's freshwater 4 strand bracelet.
