Trying to make pearl earrings

[Sea Urchin]

These pretties are on the way from Pearllunar. I also have ordered 14k yellow gold and cz dangly findings from Rio Grande, plus epoxy that comes in two separate tubes. We shall see... I'll post a photo of the real thing when they arrive. I'm curious to see how much they will look like the photo. Does anyone have pearls that look like this?

I wish I had some like that. I love greenish pearls. Those look like little chameleons, though. I'm looking forward to a future ear-shot. My experience with pearllunar, is that the pearls always look like the photo.

Good Luck!

 

[Sea Urchin]

Thank you, Gem Geek.

Oh those are really pretty! I haven't experimented with epoxy yet, I'm interested to see how they turn out!

 

[juliebeth]

oh me too! i've never ordered any that are so exotic from PL, though. i hope they're as good as promised! also, can't wait to see your creation once done!

 

[Sea Urchin]

Sorry it took me so long to return. They really are little chameleons, and quite metallic.

 

[maiakity]

These are very pretty!

Beautiful metallic drops!

 

[Sea Urchin]

Thanks, ladies.

Oh, they are beautiful. I love the settings - just the right amount of bling.

Sea Urchin, Adorable earrings! You'll reach for those often! Be ready for the compliments!

How lovely, so clever to get it all 'just right' - colour, form, beauty...

Sea Urchin, I'm late to this thread but what a lovely job you did with those earrings! Just beautiful!

 

[juliebeth]

gracious, i didn't even see this until now - those are STUNNING! good eye, and excellent setting job!

 

[Sea Urchin]

Thanks! The only problem with earrings (and short necklaces) is everyone gets to see them except the wearer!

Exactly! That's why you need to keep plenty of mirrors around.

Those earrings are so pretty!! Good job Sea Urchin!

 

[Katbran]

Those are lovely! You are pleased with the colour I would assume? I too have had good experiences with pearluna in the past , tho I admit it's been several years since I bought anything. Looks like they are keeping their standards up ! Well done!

 

[Sea Urchin]

Thanks, all. Yes, I do like the color. They're more goldish in real life.
