I will forever be appreciative to all the hard work the moderators have to deal with!! Thank you, Loretta and Blaire, and thank you for taking it up, Douglas!
there is NO way you're 80, Pattye! Happy birthday, and hooray for good health!! You look lovely!
Absolutely gorgeous!!
BWeaves, I've always believed it takes the right kind of person to look stunning when draped in white pearls. You're that kind of person. I also absolutely love what's on your loom right now. It's...
Thanks, SydK, jeg, Charlotta, and Katbran! I continue to be amazed by the color of that strand. Druzy/Ehret has some fantastic pearls available.
Jeg, I continue to be envious of your Tahitians. I...

My second pearly mail, all strung! Metallic apricot Edisons from druzy - and I adore them so much; they are stunning.
I was actually pretty active making and stringing this weekend, so...
86C, I absolutely love love love that Tahitian necklace combo. Such great layering.
SydK, I absolutely hear you on the Tahitians. I'm trying to learn to love things other than blue Tahitians,...
SydK - I absolutely love the pieces you're creating! Your mixes of stones and pearls are truly lovely.
I love your endless combinations, jeg!!

jeg, Kamoka keshi?? Super special! And I love the blue akoya!!
Lisa, not 100% sure but probably by end of the week. One's from Druzy and another is from PP's Labor Day sale, both Edison strands....
I've never heard of Stachura, Lady_Disdain - thanks for the tip :) What pearls do you normally get from them?
So many beautiful pearls, all!! I'm loving every one of these.
I may have slipped a couple times for Labor Day sales and have pearl mail coming from two places... I can't wait.
I love the teal thread. It does make a subtle difference in bringing out the colors.
Oh, Cathy, so many huge huge hugs to you and to Walter. My mom has been fighting the same kind of battles with my stepdad's docs. Go you for your ceaseless advocacy. I'm so glad it made a difference....
OMG those baby T's, jeg!!! I have a handful of them from Druzy, too; I want more because the colors are so great. I need to find better sources of loose rather than getting them 2-3 at a time...
86C, I absolutely love that necklace. It's dainty but still stands out, so well balanced!
I feel like you should do a 365 thread like BN, jeg! so many pretty pearls and I love each and every permutation :) the new gold drop is divine, and that Kamoka strand, wow!
The colors on that strand are truly special!

Today's layering... Kamoka aubergine floating pearl, Kojima blue drop and Kojima tourmaline keshi dusters.
I seriously need more strands, but little bits at a time - I find myself super...
ahhhhhh OMG those metallics, jeg!! You have such an eye for beautiful pearls.
I love the "gumball" necklace, 86C. Such a pretty piece.
Another voice for YAY BN IS BACK!
Sydk, I absolutely love the ringed T necklace - so playful, and yes, it works well with the cardi!
Jeg, I always love love love how you make your tin cups - they're so interesting!
BWeaves, the beachy tin cup is a favorite - I love the eclectic mix.

Far simpler than a lot of peeps here, but this was my wear-to-work today. Tahitian drop earrings with pearls from Ehret, made by me, and a carved Tahitian pendant from the last time we went...
