I took advantage of a rainy afternoon to knot up some cute little rosebud freshies. The iridescence is hard to capture, but they're really bright! Nice, light summery strand that ended up at 48" :)

Love this!

Wonderful strand. Beware - this will be the start of a very expensive hobby!

The combination's quite lovely :). I like the textural contrast between the akoyas and the ripples.

Gorgeous paler Ts!!!

Real knockouts! They look fantastic on you - Happy Birthday!!!!

Gorgeous Tahitians, JerseyPearl! (I would have been tempted to keep them, too!)

Nice job and pretty pearls. Well done!

Looks fabulous, Laguna - keep us posted!

Nice! Thanks!

I tried tying the knot over the bumper and got unsightly silicone bulges :(. The fine thread didn't cover the bulk of the bumper.

Bernadette - such a simple solution! I'll try that next time - thank you!!!

Go for it, Laguna! Throw in the big boys and see the magic happen :)

So I'm finding that as with Thanksgiving dinner, in playing with pearls it's often the leftovers that are the most satisfying. I had 12 leftover light peacock Tahitian circled drops and 1 lovely WSS baroque. I thought I'd do a tin cup with them, but then saw some posts with Tahitians and akoya...

Perfect, Red! Relax and enjoy!!!

These are yummy!!!!!!! I'd buy some in a heartbeat!

Fabulous!!!!! Can't wait to see what they turn into!

So - the thinner the nacre the more colorful the pearl?

Given the threatened state of coral reefs globally, I feel strongly that using coral beads as pearl nuclei is a double no-no.

Great job! I, too, much prefer the baroques.
