I think you have done an excellent job, it really compliments the keshi pearls beautifully.
Now a wee tip
many of the reamers on sale are diamond tipped.
I personally don't like them, they ream the holes too big too quickly.
I use watchmaker's reamers, you can get them in different sizes and they can be very useful, especially when the holes are very small.
The main difference is that the watchmakers reamers are five sided - and "cut" the material being reamed - whereas the diamond type operate more by grinding and tearing away material.
Regards Bernadette.
