Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

[BWeaves]

Flashback to my last Ruckus. This necklace was a $5 / 10 minute workshop. My mind just went blank on who taught it. Sherrie? Someone correct me.

I kinda love it, and wish I had a fancier version. Non-bead nucleated freshwater pearls, 100% nacre. Base metal ring, and leather thongs. It hangs about mid boob.

Kamoka had a fancier version at one time, and I'm still kicking myself that I didn't buy it.

Yes, Katbran, love freshwaters! Whites, colors, pondslime ~ ~ lol.

I love the pondslime ones ! I haven’t seen new one of them for a while though

Planet Berna (asteroid 1313) and it's moon, from Kamoka. Mismatched Tahitian and blue baroque akoya earrings from OceanRhyme.

My first Tahitian pearls, from Kojima Pearl. I lost one of the sapphires in the vintage white gold clasp years ago. I finally got around to getting it fixed. It cost me a whopping $25. I should have gotten it fixed years ago. It was the clasp that prompted me buy the strand of pearls. I love a unique clasp.

Pajama pearls. Who says you have to dress up to wear pearls? Freshwater pearls from Kojima. All natural colors.

The pendant was a dark, intense, chocolate plum color when I bought it. It's now a pale lavender with a pistachio green overtone. I really like it, but it really faded. Long ombre' keshi strand worn double, with a matching tin-cup necklace and earrings.

OOOOO, look just arrived. Sun and Moon 10.5 mm dark blue and pistachio Tahitian studs from Kamoka. Love the new box. There's a magnet in the lid to keep it closed. I think 10.5 mm might be my limit on stud size.

Sun and Moon studs with Planet Berna, also from Kamoka.

And a Tahitian ring so not me, it's gone around the bend and became me. From OceanRhyme. I'm amazed it actually fits on my middle finger, because I have huge knuckles and normally need a size 9 ring on my ring finger, and my middle finger is even bigger. The ring is an 8 1/2 and has room to spare because of the large hollow area under the top of the ring.

Metallic silver / gray Tahitian keshi necklace with blue tourmaline beads and wrapped with 22k wire. Earrings are also Tahitian keshis.

BWeaves, the Ruckus workshop was with Sheri Jurnecka. Do you also have the ring we made the year before? Both were fun projects. That planet Berna is just perfect for you!

Pearlgully, your Tahitian keshi necklace and earrings look so great on you!

We are traveling in Japan and visited the museum and Peace Park in Hiroshima this morning. Bunny in front of the display of “1000” cranes next to the Children’s Memorial.

A shrine next to our hotel in Hiroshima.

Sheri! Thank you, JEG. No, I somehow missed doing the ring the year before.
