Hahaha, I used Rit dye a long time ago to dye tiny plastic pearls. The plastic absorbed the dye quite well, so I would assume pearls would be even more receptive. You’d just need to experiment because I’m thinking you wouldn’t want your pearls too dark. Here are the plastic pearls I dyed black...

Oooo, fun new pearls, BWeaves! The rings- cute and fun, then gorgeous and elegant. Two Andy Muller ropes from a Hong Kong show, with stalactite earrings I added blue baroque Akoya to.

From Kojima- keshi and tourmaline earrings, a vintage jade fish and Kasumi pendant, and a petal pearl pendant. I wire-wrapped the station chains.

Wow, BWeaves! What remarkable displays of natural pearls. And my goodness, the Mahnmal is such a meaningful and lasting tribute to the history of your family and others from the community. I’m so glad you were able to take this trip with your dad.☺️

Thank you, Pella!!☺️ Two necklaces and earring jackets I wire-wrapped with tiny Tahitians from Alex Collins. The little diamond studs were my mom’s.

Vintage untreated coral twisted into a torsade from Pacific Pearls/Kojima, a necklace of Tahitian keshi and pearls with amethyst and coral beads from Kojima, and coral and Tahitian keshi earrings from Druzy.

Thanks so much, Shani! Thank you, Merrily! I liked the simple style so much, I wire-wrapped the same pattern with other types of pearls, too. Wearing two strands of early Edison pearls from PP, with feather pearl earrings from Kojima.

Thanks Merrily! Me, too! I love lime green. Thanks so much for the sweet compliment, Izzy!☺️ Sea of Cortez mabe pearls I chose at one of the Tucson shows. Sarah (Kojima) had them set into the gold earrings for me. Worn with two necklaces I wire-wrapped with loose Akoya from Takahashi.

A Tahitian harvest rope and a Tahitian keshi necklace from Alex Collins. (The center keshi really is a lime green color) Worn with Tahitian keshi earrings I wire-wrapped.

Glad you decided to come out and play, Izzie! Looking forward to seeing more of you in pearls😊 J.Hunter Fiji pearls- a keshi necklace and bracelet with toggle I purchased in Fiji, and a bracelet I put together on a visit to the PP Vault. I wire-wrapped the earrings with Tahitians and locally...

You are most welcome!😉

Wearing a tin cup necklace I wire-wrapped with J.Hunter Fiji keshi I found on a visit to the PP Vault, with SS keshi studs from a Takahashi/PP Live event and jackets I wrapped with blue Akoya from Takahashi. The bracelet is a blue Akoya keshi rope from Kojima wrapped several times, and the...

Oh, that was one of my very favorites. I loved it as soon as I put it on!:love:

As others have mentioned, it’s a matter of personal preference and if the color works for you. I personally love golden Akoyas. I have a strand of vintage Akoya and a new strand of golden Akoya and they are almost identical. Inner strand is a vintage strand, outer strand is a strand of golden...

Thanks so much, Pella! I thought it was a light and sweet necklace. You are way too kind Merrily. They are very quick and rough snapshots. I love trying everything on.:) I also purchased another choker necklace with pearls and a rainbow of gemstones. The SS pendant is another new addition...
