    If you could only have five pieces, what would they be and why?

    I am glad u are satisfied. That’s a good thing. My hubs says I obsess over something, buy multiples then move onto something else and the cycle starts all over again 😅. Now it’s pearls. Hubs wanted to watch a movie last night but I was browsing this forum while searching for pearls that he...

    If you could only have five pieces, what would they be and why?

    I want to add a fireball strand and a nice mix of assorted T’s. Ooh and some keshi studs 😅 Also the PP and miki studs are nearly the same size. I’m glad I can wear them as a mismatch set. I also want to note that I am happy with the Mikimotos I own, but if I could start over, I wouldn’t be so...

    uodora?

    I love the multiple colors and shape. And making my own necklace is something I really want to do. May even be more cost friendly. I love making things. I even restrung my MIL's miki's. Hubs was in my ear freaking me out as I've never done it before. But I told him to keep quiet and if I...

    They’re both so gorgeous! https://ebay.us/m/rAdJVK I saw these on eBay. And 1 week ago ME, probably would’ve been all over this. Bday wishlist ✔️. Or secret fund-spoil myself ✔️. But now I know I do not need the best of the best. Somewhat seems like a boring necklace now. Your necklaces...
