I wanted to say,"Thank you" to each one of you. This place has blessed my socks off!

I have loved pearls ever since I was a child and have been trying to learn as much as is humanly possible in the past seven years so I can offer a quality product to my customers.

I read these forums before I read fox news and honestly, yall are the NICEST people I have encountered in the jewelry industry! This industry isn't exactly known for folks sharing ideas and techniques and yall have been more than gracious in helping out those of us who want to learn from a more experienced one. Thank you!!

My stringing projects are looking great due to some tips I've learned here BUT the only problem with this forum is that this STRANGE gnawing desire is growing in me to buy some big hunky expensive pearls for myself!!!

So thank you again....if you all lived closer I'd send each of you a basket of hot buttermilk biscuits with pear preserves!!
