My Pearls 2.0

[Charlotta2.0]

Thank you eolian pearls. I do like wirewrapped pearls as well. Not as much as knotted strand, probably because I sometimes tangles the wirewrapped pieces...
I will get some more photos of Hearts Delight soon

 

[Charlotta2.0]

I do have some older wirewrapped pieces that I have made. Morsecode tincup

It says my name. Coffeine tincup with white south sea pearls and a coffeine molecule centerpiece

The south sea pearls are from Pearlescence. Then my oldest tahitian tincup

And finally unless I have forgotten some a really long tincup with blue akoyas from Pearlescence

 

[CortezPearls]

Lovely pieces... But I do have to say the "Caffeine" tincup necklace won me over!
I just woke up and I have hugest, steaming cup of coffee with me... We're both enjoying each other and all the beautiful Pearl's

Thank you CortezPearls. That coffeine tincup was so fun to make. I didn't find any other connector that I liked. There are chocolate, not a favorite, estrogen and testosteron, don't want them in a tincup either. But coffeine I like.
I finished wirewrapping the Delight version, it ended up bring 43 inches long. I have yet to name it. I am thinking about wirewrapping my rainbow bracelet from cmw pearls and maybe put a svivel fob pendant thinghy in front for pendants. Could be fun

I forgot to post the updated Sunrise Clouds strand that I tweaked. There were one pearl that bothered me but I ended up exchanging a few more.

I think that it's more harmonious now

 

[CortezPearls]

I could begin imagining a hormone themed jewelry item. Not my cup of tea! Will take caffeine always!

And then there is my cherry peacock tahitian strand from cmw pearls. I call this one Bird of Paradise, I added some cherry peacock pearls that I already had.

It is pretty but I do prefer my green strand. Both of them together

That green strand is one of my favorites.

​​​​​Such pretty colors

Exactly CortezPearls. I don't want a hormonal themed jewelry collection. I could be a spokesperson for Lavazza, I drink espresso with everything. Sometimes even with my dinner. And not the kind in a machine, I prefer those you screw together and put on the stove. It should be really strong and nothing added. No sugar, no cream or anything. Funny thing is that when I live in italy for a while years ago I did learn that you do not add milk to your espresso except maybe for breakfast when you are suppose to dip a briosh (unclear about the name) preferably smeared with chocolate cream. Only children or tourists might add milk to their espresso. They were quite adamant about this....haha...then again tourists are sometimes treated or viewed like children...

I also made a Daffodil rope out of my golden south sea ripples from Pearlescence, I added some circled deeper golden south sea pearls, also from Pearlescence to them. The ripples are gorgeous but needed some contrast to shine.

The pearls do have the quirkiest shapes, it's really fun examining them. There is one like look like a duck, the head of one at least.

They are a bit warmer in real life, but the light is pretty weak this time of year.

 

[Lilpearl]

Beautiful Charlotta! You have such an eye for color and shape! They all look amazing and wouldn’t know which one to pick as favorite!

 

[CortezPearls]

LOL. Made me think about coffee again!

I get this. When you know and LOVE coffee you end up drinking it black: no sugar, milk or anything...unless you feel like having a "dessert coffee" (my favorite is Mexican "Café de Olla", produced with a little bit of cinnamon, clove and sweetened with molasses). My grandad always answered back to the question of "Milk and Sugar?" with a resounding "I drink my coffee as black as the Soul of a Politician" (Mexican politicians are or have been known for their evil deeds).

 

[CortezPearls]

I like your daffodil rope! It has a warm glow to it, that just soothes the Soul on a cold, cloudy winter's day!

 

[Charlotta2.0]

Thank you Lilpearl and CortezPearls. I love espresso and hates swedish coffee. Darn weak coffee that. Every morning I make one of these really big pots of espresso, I don't know maybe 6-8 cups, then I put all of it in a termos and then I have espresso for the whole workday at least. I do think I have to make some more soon....

[SurfnSci]

Your Bird of Paradise strand is lovely, Charlotta. And your daffodil rope is spectacular!!!! I love the colors and luster and quirky shapes

 

[Charlotta2.0]

Thank you SurfnSci. I got an idea this morning about lighten up those cherry peacocks. Maybe they would work with all those small blueish akoyas that I have loose at the moment, the ones from Pearlescence. The same as in this rope

I have to put them next to each other to check

 

[Charlotta2.0]

My wirewrapped Color Delight endless strand that I made a couple of days ago. I didn't really need another knotted Delight strand, but it's so fun making them.. So I wirewrapped it. It did turn out a bit longer than intended, it's 43,5 inches long. It includes tahitians, south seas, edisons and one ripple pearl. I was tempted to add a clasp,, but then I would have been tempted to favor some colors.

I mostly used pearls from Druzydesign, Pearlescence, cmw pearls and Cees in this one.

 

[eolian pearls]

OMG!!!! Today is a screaming day!!! .... It is SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!!! Makes my heart sing in bliss...Amazing colors and luster and design and wire-wrapping... Saving this to my “absolutely need one” folder. Oh Charlotta you have outdone yourself!

 

[Charlotta2.0]

Thank you eolian pearls. I am pleased with it as well, also that I resisted adding a clasp, now I can have a new color every day

 

[Charlotta2.0]

I also did make that bracelet with the ice blue akoya from that Pearlescence strand I bought last year. I added a blue tahitian and I think that the two kinds of pearls really enhances each other. The blue tahitian is from cmw pearls
