    Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

    Lot's of beads - glass cloudberries on kangaroo leather cord, fiery agate & turquoise on coral silk - and one little Fiji Keshi to justify posting here. ;) Hach, I love summery jewellery. *yay, uploading with a different browser worked*

    I only designed it, Sasa Blackoff slightly adapted and made it.

    Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

    I haven't looked at this thread for a while, so scrolling along and seeing all your precious styles is just such a wonderful treat! Today I have been wearing my dew-dripping-brand-new pendant and realized I'd totally "tuck it in" for an occasional peek-a-boo, oh, and of course tiara-ize it -...

    Pearl and Gemstones

    Thanks everyone! Today is the day, I'd like to share my one to rule them all: Willow creek jasper mirror slices, SoC mabe, Fiji keshi, mint tourmaline: I collected the pearls&gemstones dreaming about my initial inspiration, designed after looking at lots and lots of pendants and brooches...

    BWeaves, I adore your keshi dangle earrings! Also, the herradura-type earring fitting is one of my favorites ever, it just looks so good on (and also as we age).

    My pearls

    Oh, Charlotta, thank you so much! What kinds are they? So beautiful! I especially love the pink and the cream ones! I've planted a "Jude the obscure" and a "Alnwick Rose" this fall, hopefully they'll do well in spring.

    My pearls

    Love this thread! The pearls, the snowy views...! And I cannot wait to see more of these old roses, I am really into those (and the Austin ones) too.

    Pearl and Gemstones

    Just wanted to quickly share what I did this weekend: the nerdy crafter's matchy-matchy jeans jacket! A golden silk and yarn on felt patch. The yarn (left: custom-dyed by a pro and light: colour-stripped + greenish: overdyed by me) :)

    Thank you Charlotta, Corvettegirl and Lisa! I have just used a very small silver spring clasp light enough to stay in the back of my neck. That tiny strand is really lovely to wear as it's virtually weightless and I forget that I have it on, even slept in it tonight.

    Beautiful work Jeg! I love all those creamy colours and shapes together. And the tiny Akoyas are spectacular with that big golden one! I took some hours yesterday to knot the tiniest freshwater pearlies onto coral silk. Looking forward to layer them with a longer strand of coral beads. I've...

    That is a great idea BWeaves! The high carat gold would look best if actually hand-made too, right? I'll have to save up a little more for that - or work on my soldering skills. :)

    What kind of necklace would you guys put it on? I am thinking long enough to comfortably look at it - rolo/belcher oxidised silver maybe?

    Thank you! Yes, I really wanted it to have this "unearthened" ancient handmade look. The high carat allows for this.
