I've been away for too long (work, work, work) but am thrilled to come back and see these. Wow!

I'm excited for you, Kelly! I got a tahitian keshi from Sarah a couple of years ago myself. You'll love it! Send us some pictures... John

What a wonderful idea and realization of the idea. A great juxtaposition. Congratulations!

What lovely pearls, Anna! Like Sheri and Caitlin, I think that the rough diamonds really look great with the pearls. I actually have a 15mm Tahitian pearl on a necklace with black rough diamonds. I like the combination a lot. With the colors you have on these, it would be fantastic.

Thanks so much. It was fun and I had too many leather-cord-on-pearl necklaces.

I bought a nice, round South Sea pearl from Jeremy (pearlparadise.com) and a couple of lovely, bumpy South Sea keishi pearls from Care Ehret (druzydesigns on eBay). Then a friend of mine who makes jewelry was able to pull it together with some of my findings and brown crystals to make this...

How lovely! I've been reading your blog but seeing them again here just ma brings a big smile. The colors are fantastic - the blues, the purples. Oh my... I can't wait to see your 2010 necklace!

I just saw that wrapped and ss pearl necklace. I'm gobsmacked. I love the whole idea of wrapping the Tahitians. What wonderful work!

I love the pictures, but have to ask - what does one do with the tassles. They are gorgeous on the cat as a headress but doubt that was the intent. Surely they are not intended for a burlesque dancer :eek:

Beautiful, Blaire! I love the combination.

Would be incredible if true!

I would love to have it, but can't figure what I would do with it (except look longingly at it!).

How fun is that - congratulations! I love the color (and the pearls are lovely, too!). I'm hoping to be in SF the end of May. If I make it, I'll check to see if you are there to play pearls...

I love your videos - this one included. I subscribe on Youtube just so I can see what you put up next.

I was perusing on Kojima Pearl and saw this 16.9mm Tahitian. It's quite the specimen. I thought immediately of Sheri (La_Corsetiere) and her monster pearls. Large pearls like these are mind boggling - that's a big pearl considering the overall space...
