Hi!

I adore my new bracelet!
Freshwater AAA 6.0-7.0mm from Pearl Paradise.
I'm so impressed with the quality of these pearls. Also, the service and packaging was just excellent.

I was surprised at how large they look on me! I thought that maybe I should've gone bigger, but they are the perfect size for my wrist.

One question, they seem to be strung a little tight. Is this because the thread will stretch?

*sigh* they are lovely.
A new addiction is born...
(I have some Freshadama earrings coming too!)

Congrats on your first pearl purchase. Nice pearls and they look great on your wrist!
Yes it will loosen up a little after you wear it a few times.

A gorgeous bracelet, Kay!

Congratulations! Looking forward to seeing the earrings also. The size is perfect on you, and it will loosen up a bit with wearing.
