Ahem...this is one reason you haven't been seeing me posting here lately...Anna has been keeping me busy! She has done an amazing job - the book is exquisite and very informative, full of history and technical information coupled with luscious photography. Ok, on that note, must get back to...

Love the necklace, Hanadama! I've been off line for a while, busy busy busy, have so much pearly beauty to catch up on here!

Ditto. I think it's really a question of how they sit on the neck...difficult to say without trying them on!

Knowing that in just a few days I'll be pulling out all of my fall colors, regardless of the weather, I'm basking in an Indian summer day and wearing my Tahitian mermaid-octo rope with an unabashedly summery minty green...

Gorgeous, Kay! The doubled strand and varied sizes really give the look a modern elegance.

Purr, you are always an inspiration - those are absolutely gorgeous, and I love all of the different combinations. I am now feeling the need to make some tin cups of my own. Don't have any flowers on hand, though, so perhaps some diminutive cephalopods might have to fill in!

It turned out beautifully, JP!!! I'm honored to have been part of this project!

I made the clasp so it could be multi-directional...I was thinking the octo tentacle would hook through the mermaid's clasped hands, but I see he is equally happy frolicking from her tail! These cephalopods can be quite mischievous...:rolleyes: The clasp looks great with your luscious pearls...

I love the snake siblings!!!

Gosh, you are all so kind, thanks!!!!!:)

Just came across these recent posts; wifi has been spotty in my travels - just have to chime in that I LOVE your necklace and bracelet, BPDDC! The other manly pearly looks posted here are great, too. Kudos to all you guys who are secure enough to proudly sport this beautiful gem! And BPDDC...
