I completely agree with this sentiment. I wear my most expensive and "fancy" strands with jeans and a T-shirt if I am sure I am going out in safe areas lol! I am sitting at home right now with a cat on my lap, sweatpants a sweater wearing a tahitian pearl on a pendant. Yesterday, jeans, regular...

I am new into the jewelry crafting hobby and I have invested in some nice pearls to use, but my eyes roll back in my head for the cost of gold clasps etc. My next solution will be gold filled. At present I am using what I can afford and like because I only have to please myself or my family. I...

Time for some Freshie love. Yesterday I was in blue wearing raggedy kasumi like pearls from Simply Adorned, which I had to restring due to the knots slipping through the large holes in the pearls, I think I did a great job! The shorter strand is from House of Pearls. Purple shirt day showing...

Those pearls are INSANE!!

All EFFY jewellry imo is VERY overpriced.

One last thing. The first Tahitian neckace that I designed and made. I really like it.

My second strand of circle Ts which I love for casual wear and also a photo of a mishmash of freshies! Oh and the Takahashi necklace doubled.

These are the pendant and bracelet I bought at Na Hoku as well, love the octopus theme!

I DID IT!!! I made it through every post in this thread!!! I am simply overwhelmed by all of the beauty here. I guess now it's time to post a few of my own. The first really expensive pearls I bought were at Na Hoku, and I sometimes wondered if I over-paid for them. My only disappointment with...

I think so too, however from any distance, the beads do get lost, so I think I will shorten the necklace a bit and replace the beads with more of the flat freshies, I think that would compliment the pearls better imo.

Those earrings are quite stunning simplicity!

Sorry for the delay lol still working through the forum and am 25 pages away from completion! Yes, I got them from the Takahashi live event :)

Berna, that purple necklace is my new favourite. I am also a huge fan of the swan, so much so that I am going to have my jeweller create something similar with a white FWP that I have. I hope you don't mind!

OK I was going to wait until I get through the last 100 posts to put up a pic, but I just finished my first wire bending artsy necklace and want some input please. The necklace was initially the choker type, but found that I wasn't reaching for it so I thought I would go for a layering piece...

Thank you all for these replies, they will be helpful!

WOWWWWWWW!

That is absolutely GORGEOUS!

I have been working my way through page 1 to the end, and I noticed that a lot of you make your own tin cup necklaces (stunning btw). What materials of metal do you use for them? Do you use gold wire, gold filled? For those of you who make silver toned tin cups, what type of metal? If it's...

That is absolutely DELICIOUS!!!

Those colours are outstanding Berna!!
