I love your new pearls eolian! I can see why you’re so happy with them. The tin cup looks so light and the composition is so nicely done.
Great choices, BWeaves! Sigh, that keshi necklace!
So pretty...
We’ve had snow all week so I have not gone anywhere. Mostly I have only been rotating my way through pearl studs. I did get a few new Tahitian pairs from CMW and set them myself. Tahitian strand was knotted with pearls from CMW, too.

Ooo JEG, those are so pretty. I love multicolored Tahitian strands. Cute box for the studs, and the studs themselves are a gorgeous green. What mm are the studs. I currently only have 9 mm studs, and now I'm starting to suffer from PSS and they're starting to look small on me.

Oh WOW. You all look so wonderful, the sparkle of new pearls everywhere!!! Jeg and the seashells and goldens ... Eolian with the most perfect custom necklace ... BWeaves with that stunning sapphire clasp keshi vintage piece AND alligators and emeralds AND!!! THE LOOM 
. So delighted for you BWeaves . I've been kept busy for the past few days making some Christmas treats for friends and neighbors, and then a tiny Christmas diner with immediate family after 2 long years. Grandson came home with us for a few days so it was Walter to the 2nd power around here. The little Walt is now taller than grandpa, with shoulder length HAIR, and thinks my sofas are now ... too small LOL. We had a grand time on an expedition to Philadelphia to the magic computer store for new upgraded parts for the desktop grandson built ... and a car picnic supper in Philly Chinatown, slurping down soup dumplings; SO much fun! Yes, the old Walter managed to gift me a strand of pearls, no photo yet. Delicate, dainty and very very dreamy blue and other akoyas; he had a most expert advisor

Douglas, congratulations on your family's move; we wish you all joy and happiness in your new home, dear friend
Cathy, such fun, you and your grandson! I know how he just loves being with you and “Pop Pop”. And speaking of big W... he always manages to find those special pearls for you! 
BWeaves, I am so happy for you to finally get your loom! And even better that you like it so much. I have been wearing studs a lot. They are just so easy and I have so many. The pair that I had on is 10.5, and the blue/green pair is 9.7. Fortunately I do not suffer from PSS. I do have bigger studs, but I rarely wear the ones over 11mm. On me, they start looking faux, or like big gum balls stuck to my ears.
I’d prefer to go smaller, but that’s just my personal preference. Although, I do think you need at least one pair over 9mm!

Your look is so festive, Lilpearl! Wow!
A very happy and healthy New Year to you, too!
Still not venturing out in the car, but I walked down the hill to meet a couple of friends at a cafe to celebrate one of their birthdays. Still wearing posts, but I added a strand of keshi I knotted. Silver grey Akoya studs from Takahashi Pearl.

Happy new year friends!
Still without internet so I can't really write that much
Using my phone, but I can't really write here... Not my cup of tea!
But a lovely way to start a new year with these beautiful pearl jewelry items

Such beautiful pearls jeg. I almost always wears studs myself, so comfortable. Sometimes I add some dangles as well on my Pearlescence huggies, they are also really comfortable.
Lilpearl, that ring is stunningly gorgeous.
CortezPearls, haha. I always writes on my phone. I haven't had a real computer in years and my tablet passed away after 10+ years recently. It's not really dead, but so slow and with such limiterad memory that it's really unusable. I use to read on pearl guide on it before, I didn't really use it for anything else...haven't bought a new one yet. Mostly because they don't make experia tablets anymore. And I don't want an Ipad nor a Samsung...but my phone works really well so I don't miss it all that much. You get use to it. I even watch Netflix on the phone sometimes when I have a lot of stringing to do.
Happy new year everyone. Like a post I just read on Instagram I do want to check the fine print of 2022 before commiting to it, haha

Hopefully you don't have to get use to using only your phone CortezPearls
Happy New Year, Douglas! I hope you are able to get online soon. We miss you! Thank you, Charlotta! My studs are getting a winter workout.
Another day on foot. I had brunch with friends, but all bundled up with very little jewelry. Wearing my silver grey Akoya studs from Takahashi Pearl again, with a vintage Tiffany ring I inherited a long, long time ago. Sometimes it’s a “snowflake” and sometimes it’s a “flower,” but I rarely wear it in any season.

lilpearl I like that ring!
JegAbsolutely gorgeous shine. Diamonds and pearls like mirrors; that is a really fun ring! You can’t beat sparkle, as a mood-lifter for shorter or overcast days.
You all look wonderful!
I do well enough with just the phone, too, except for writing emails, posts, and wanting to enlarge photos. Typing on the phone is sooooo too slow.
