Thanks, BWeaves. I have a small version of this type of finding. I rarely use this one because I tend to attach my pendants to long chains or strands. I think it would work well for a pendant attached to a necklace that hangs closer to the neck. Attaching a pic- (pendant is from PP)

I hope you’re feeling better pearlgirl12.:confused: Yes, the finding on that particular Kasumi pendant does clip on, but it is not removable from the smaller ring. I have purchased some different findings in order to attach some of my bails to strands and chains. Some in that style that pushes...

Haha, I hope you’re behaving then, Steve:LOL: I’ve been going through some of my rings. I used to wear rings all the time but for a long time now, they have been my least worn pieces of jewelry. This ring is an Edison pearl from PP. I made the tin cup with loose pearls from one of last year’s...

A smooth Kasumi pearl I purchased at a Ruckus and had Sarah set it on a wavy band. The beaded necklace is also from Kojima, and I put together the two Tahitian keshi strands.

If the knot is between the last two pearls, that means the knots did not go back through the last three pearls. This could be of concern if the knot releases because the strand will come apart. If you do not want to return it to the stringer, I’d use a thread burner or trim it a little and...

Thanks so much, Katbran and SurfnSci! Happy weekend to you, too, Douglas! Oooo, SurfnSci… Beautiful Kasumi pearls!:p Natural white Akoya strand from Takahashi, a SS and apatite necklace from Maui, a cultured abalone pearl ring from Atacama Pearls, and earrings I put together with vintage...

A Tahitian pendant and ring from Kojima, with a multi-colored Tahitian rope and scattered keshi chain I put together.

Tahitian studs from Takahashi, a Tahitian pendant from Katbran, and a Tahitian rope from an Intergem Show.

Thanks so much, Douglas! Tahitian keshi studs from Takahashi. I made the dangly jackets, the tin cups and strand, with tiny Tahitians from Alex Collins.

Thanks, Steve! No, the feather pearl is not a Kasumi. I love feather pearls!

That’s a fun gift from your parents, eolian! The tails give it a spiky edgy look. A strand of silvery color banded Tahitians from PP, and a feather pearl on a Kasumi keshi necklace from Kojima.

I’m glad you like the idea! I’d like to make one for myself! The only consideration would be weighting the asymmetry so the necklace stays centered.

I love the seashells, BWeaves! There have been a few stuffed earrings lately, too.:love: Tourmaline wheels and keshi from Kojima.

Pomelo, when I was pulling out some of my tin cups, I thought maybe you could start with a tin cup as an introduction to multi-colored Tahitians instead of a full strand? This is one I made with extra loose pearls I had, but you could choose individual T’s with lots of color and contrast to make...

It’s a nice touch, a cute little pop peeking out from under your SS’s, Pomelo! FW and sapphire earrings from little h. Stuffed seashell and sapphire necklace from Kojima. A leather and Tahitian bracelet from France, and an Akoya tin cup I made.

Thanks Douglas and Pomelo! Pomelo, I think the largest pearl in those strands is maybe around 13-14mm. BWeaves, I hope you love your new pearls. I absolutely love the color of abalone pearls. I had to catch up on the Live event late, but it reminded me to bring out my wild natural SOC. Two...

Thanks, Pomelo! I don’t know that I wear any combination more over another. Visually, I think I’m personally attracted to strong body colors over overtone.

Thanks so much, SurfnSci! And I love your super pretty Akoya necklace! SOC necklace from Kojima that I got at a Ruckus, with earrings I put together.

If you have extra on hand and you are ok with experimenting with them… I used to dip dye plastic pearls and fabrics to give them an antique patina for craft projects I was working on. I used such things as tea, coffee and even black Ritz dye. Leave them sitting in the solution until you have the...
