My leather cord with pearls arrived from PP!!!

I looked at them - beautiful - I put them on - I took them off - I looked at them - my husband looked at them - I put them on.

Still on. Any mirror in the house is now my "pearl viewing" mirror.

They are very simple, casual, special all at once. I'll try to send a picture of them.

How fun! Can't wait for pics. Congrats!

Any time I get new pearls I wear them daily for a few months. You know, good Karma.

Thank you Barbie. I hate to take them off. I feel a little foolish seeing the magnificent pearls pictured on the Forum. But, I love my little necklace very much.

I'll take pictures tomorrow.

Always receptive to good Karma

Don't be silly -- all pearls are worthy! And yours are Tahitians -- no slouch there.

Wow those are great looking -- no wonder you didn't want to take then off.

Hi Francesca,

Very lovely, I love the varying shades. Does 3 stand for anything in particular? don't feel bad about the photos, it took me months to figure out how to resize and download. I can tell you are a fast learner when it comes to pearls!!:

Pattye
so many pearls, so little time

That necklace is made to wear all the time, until the leather gets funky, then a new piece of leather and you're good to go again.

That is the kind of piece I would wear for the rest of my life.

Hi La Contessa,
That's a gorgeous necklace, and what a lovely thought, too.
Three pearls for your three...

The luster on those pearls looks Amazing!

What a beautiful sentiment you have behind the creation of your necklace. I can imagine you will want to wear it always.
