kelluvpearls, what an experience! I've put "visit J Hunter pearl farm" on my things to do before I die list ;) Absolutely lovely pearls, thanks for sharing :)

The octobaby is cute, but oh my god am I jealous of your purple pearls- looks absolutely gorgeous around your neck :)

Gorgeous! Where's the earshoots? ;)

cyndayco, that's such a pretty necklace. Look forward to a neck shot :) ckrickett, I love the colour and lustre! Red, gorgeous!

Another one drooling over here. Wow!

They look lovely on you!

That is absolutely stunning! And it looks gorgeous on you.

That's very interesting. Thanks for sharing :)
