Thank you, Pomelo and SurfnSci! Pretty rings, Tecs1990 and BWeaves! Congratulations, Pomelo!! Is your due date soon? You wear large studs well! MintyFresh, what a great project for getting back into your jewelry making. SurfnSci, you look absolutely elegant! A golden SS pearl I chose from...

Thanks MintyFresh! They are Augers and are easily found on different beaches. Pretty colors BWeaves! Love the combinations. I think I’ve only taken a few photos of those pieces, but the necklace I’ve had since last summer, and the ring was from my visit to the Takahashi office in March...

A blue Akoya ring from Takahashi, a drop necklace of FW, SS, Kasumi, Tahitian and Akoya pearls from Kojima, and a necklace I wire-wrapped with Fiji keshi pearls from PP.

Merrily, I don’t know what the shirt looked like to begin with, but I like the end result! When I used the Rit dye to dye white plastic pearls to black, I left them in the dye for 24 hours. I used some sort of small plastic container to soak them in.

A SS pendant from PP worn on an Akoya keshi necklace from Kojima. The other necklace is a large (10.5+) baroque Akoya from Takahashi, the SS keshi studs are from PP/Takahashi live, and the jackets were made with loose Akoya from Takahashi.

Beautiful Akoyas, SurfnSci! I love the combinations, BWeaves! Love that dangly pendant! The inner Tahitian necklace is from Kamoka, and the outer is from Maui Divers. Worn with earrings I wrapped.

Thanks BWeaves! I like your new bracelet. It goes perfectly with Planet Berna! SS tokki earrings from Kojima, a new Kasumi pendant, also from Kojima, and two Tahitian keshi necklaces I wrapped.

Bella3x, a belated welcome to the forum! I enjoyed looking through your collection. I especially like your newest 3 strand multi necklace. Great find!

Pretty layers of green, BWeaves! Ooo, beautiful strand, SurfnSci! A Kamoka harvest bracelet, a Tahitian keshi necklace from Kojima, and a light multi-colored Tahitian opera length I put together.

They are freshwater pearls. I have two brooches purchased from Kojima. I can’t remember off the top of my head, but maybe somewhere around 2013. They were handmade by a woman in Hong Kong. I mostly wear the large one as a pendant, and the smaller one on a wristband. Here are some old photos that...

Your SS’s are beautiful, Syrie! I’ve always wanted something set in that blossom setting, too. Thanks for taking the pics of your work, BWeaves! I especially love the leafy designs. My grandmother used to make all our kimonos, but all the obi ties were purchased. I do not miss being dressed in...

Thanks, BWeaves! I hadn’t seen Kasumi keshi in these petal shapes before either. I purchased the necklace several years ago during a Kojima studio visit. A golden SS ombre rope from a PP holiday special, with a special golden SS strand from the last PP Ruckus. Worn with earrings I wrapped with...

WOW! So much fun to catch up on everyone’s pearly posts!🤗 Love all the great looks! BWeaves, I’ve seen some of your gorgeous shawls, but how do you use your rope and strap-like projects? Wearing a Japan Kasumi keshi necklace from Kojima, with earrings I wrapped with seashells from Sanibel Island.

Very pretty, Gingey! Hope your dinner was delicious! I always love seeing that All-Josh strand, BWeaves! And the shark’s tooth is super cool, too. Teddy bear towel buddies were waiting for us when we arrived. They made quick friends with the Bunny pals.

A little late to the SOC mabe layouts… Pulling up some old pics as I haven’t worn this pendant for a while. A pendant from Kojima that I purchased at a PP Ruckus, and the earrings Sarah had set for me with mabe from one of the Tucson shows.
