Remember I'm just a newbie! I'm actually sitting at my computer ALL day today, writing copy for my website & the X-cart stuff - the forum is a wonderful aid to procrastination!

Re the sun comments Blaire - the gorgeous GSS necklace that Carolyn Ehret had that someone put up on the "What do you covet most?" thread was described to me by Carolyn as being "like molten balls of sun" - great desciption, don't you think?

Thanks again for all your compliments. I am very happy with the pearl pendant we chose from PP.

I was not game enough to order something online, and was glad that we could go to PP to select the pearl - it has no imperfection. Kirsten showed us quite a few trays of loose GSS pearls and sizes, and some were not without the odd dimples.

Before our appointment, Kirsten asked me what I was after so she could get it ready to show us. I told her I was not after a strand as it would only be worn occasionally on formal occasions; nor earrings as when I was young my mother had a midwife pierced my ears lopsided ; nor bracelet as it gets in the way! Rather, I wanted something simple yet elegant for day-to-day use such as lunches with the girls (some of my girlfriends are loaded with jewelery), and to meetings. And, the single pearl pendant was pecfect.

I was tempted to get hubby to part with more $ for a larger size pearl, but maybe next time!

Gorgeous pearl, and it looks wonderful on you, Mysydney.

It's nice to know that a pearl we covet is owned by someone who can really appreciate it!

mysydney, I think the size is perfect right now.
