They are fun dangles, BWeaves!:)

Harvest strand from Alex Collins with Tahitian/T keshi earrings I made.

754?! Yay, you’re working your way to the light at the end of the tunnel! I actually should review some old posts myself. I’ve noticed there are pics on some of my old posts that I have no idea where they came from- random people I don’t know or pearls I don’t recognize. :oops: Yikes!

Thanks so much, Cathy! And bookmarked- I’ve had it on my packing list since it doesn’t wrinkle;) Thank you, CatMom and Shani! Shani, I’ll have to go back and pull those pearls out to wear. They haven’t been out for a while. Ooo, wonderful stack of pearls pearlgirl12! Love all your layers...

Thanks, BWeaves! I feel as you do- so lucky to have had the opportunities to add special pieces to our collection. I am also so grateful to know such wonderful pearl people around the world. Congratulations Pomelo! Keep us posted on your baby event. The pearl belt adds such a fantastic element...

Thanks so much, CatMom, BWeaves, 86C and Shani! BWeaves, I’m glad I have that one;). Shani, I had to find that necklace to see what I did because I tend to go back and forth with that style as to whether I use wire or thread. I was pretty sure I used wire, but I was surprised to find it was on...

Thanks so much, pearlgirl12 and 86C! I haven’t decided what I’ll do with the loose pearls yet, but one pair will probably be added to a simple chain to use for jackets. One of the new blue baroque Akoya studs from Takahashi, with a SOC keshi necklace from Kojima, and a tin cup bracelet I put...

My special request from Takahashi Pearl just arrived. I wear mostly studs when I travel because they are easy to pack and easy to wear in any weather. I asked Mr. Seki if he could find some blue baroque Akoya for me. I chose two pairs for studs, and two pairs as loose pearls to use in dangly...

Thanks so much for the very kind compliments, Shani! A strand and tin cup of Kasumi pearls from Kojima, with FW earrings I put together.

Welcome Shani! So glad you found this forum to add to your pearl adventures. I’m so sorry to hear about your mom. I empathize with what you are going through. Na Hoku is a reputable jewelry store. There are several on the islands, and a few other locations. I have purchases from them as well...

Worrying about all our pearl friends in Southern California! I hope everyone is safe and unharmed…

Enjoying the island sunshine- I have so much to catch up on. I only brought the Traveling Pearl and Bunny, plus a few studs with me this time. Love everyone’s pearls! So good to see you 86C. I hope your family is ok. Marlakins, those little birdies are so adorable! And beautiful pearls BWeaves...

That’s such a great wedding pic. You were a striking guest couple!

Color treated blue Akoya can have very natural looking colors. Often there are signs around the drill holes.

Thanks so much, Tiger! I haven’t used that idea in a long time. Oh, I’ve been eying those vintage Akoya. I really love the soft colors of vintage Akoya. I would wear those two strands together anytime! Little h Tahitian and ruby earrings, with two Tahitian necklaces I put together.

That turned out beautifully! Well done!

Thanks so much, CatMom! Can’t wait to see what other SS’s you add to your collection now that you have the bug!;) A Kojima mixed rope with a feather pearl pendant on a strand of Kasumi keshi, also from Kojima.

I don’t have a name for the actual pattern, but I have these stretchy rings that I got in the early 2000’s when I was in Maui. My mom had a whole collar/scarf made of several rows in this pattern that is somewhere in my house, but I have no idea where.

Oh, thank you for the sweet compliments, Lisa! Have lots of fun wearing your rope!

I love all those purply pinky colors, BWeaves! They have a luscious luster. Merry Christmas to you, CatMom! Your hubby outdid himself this year with that beautiful, beautiful bracelet! I’m guessing it has not left your wrist. Enjoy wearing and gazing at that wonderful piece!:giggle: FW...
