Hurrah Knotty !!!

[Mikeyy]

There is something very Oceanie (call Colbert) about that piece. Like a pearl strand tangled up in seaweed and bubbles. I mean in a good way.

[pearlkrazy]

Ohhh it's so unique :-) I love the mix of different shapes & colors. It is very mermaid-y, but in a grown up way not a Disney move way.

[Mikeyy]

Mermaidy? Call Colbert again. Two new words in one thread.

WOW !!! I really like it !! Very nice design, very interesting combination of shapes and colors !!! I can't wait to see more !!!!!

[Nerida]

Knotty - that's lovely! Well done on being the first! I love the contrasting textures of the various pearls - colours are a great mix too. Definitely something I would wear.

The Knotty Mermaid's Net. Or something like that...

It's gorgeous! I love the scales of the different pearls and the textures all together.

Go Knotty, that is just amazing! Love all those colors together!!

Oh my goodness! Thank you all so much for all the kind comments! I'm sure I won't get a moments sleep tonight.

Mermaidy? I never thought of that, but you're right! It's given name is Bee Charmer. The keishis naturally form wings against the round pearls and I've got some silver beads for their little noses. The lavender "berry" strand is completely detachable in case the twist inadvertently comes undone (as twists are known to do) or the two strands can be worn separately.

Thanks Nora for all your support and letting me know it was on the website. And THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU Terry for the idea of the Designers' Market and the great photos!

Terry needs lots more submissions and we've got so many talented members. I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!

As a pearl person and a beekeeper I doubly approve

Hi Creative Panda.

All you have to do now is to play with colors: bridal in white, white with pink sparks, white with lavender, blue, yellow............
This will keep you busy for years !!!

Good luck !
