Pearls are so versatile.
The truly do go with anything.
The truly do go with anything.
It's hard to believe the fashion and fine jewelry industries are just getting around to really embracing this idea.
What I mean is, I think these industries have tried (on many occasions) to 'bring forth the pearl', but as a whole, most people still see them
as 'stuffy', snobby or classic and all 'prim and proper'.
Not me.
Not me.
I believe they go with anything, on anyone, in any season and for any reason.
Because I love them so much the thought never crossed my mind that they couldn't look great in any type of design or with any type of material.
Pearls are such a passion with me that I feel that it's part of my 'life's mission' to spread the word about them and show people how wonderful they are.

I'm glad I'm hosting another Pearls! Pearls!! Pearls!!! Blog Hop.
I think the craft / handcrafted artisan jewelry industry already has the whole 'pearls' thing pretty much figured out.
Seriously.
I see so many of my fellow jewelry artists using their pearls with such a variety of materials and in so many unique and different ways that it makes me feel all tingly inside.
Just look at a few of the creations that were in the
Pearls! Pearls!! Pearls!!! Blog Hop in September 2013.

Your designs with pearls are simply fabulous! When you posted that first necklace pic on FB, I about fell off my chair! So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHave a safe Memorial Day weekend!
Thanks so much Patti!! I hope my friend likes it to - it was made as a special Mother's Day gift for a very dear, long-time friend! You have a happy and safe holiday weekend too. I'm up in the mountains so hopefully these comments will post! Our internet up here is rather spotty at times!
DeleteHi Shel, What a varied and unusual collection of pearls you have for this post. Also could not help noticing the looped earwires in that last photo. Would love to see how they look warn on actual ears... beautiful design!!!
ReplyDeletePlease sign me up for the hop on June 29!
You're in Lisa!! Thanks for joining us! As for those earrings - I need to make more because people always comment on those. I would show them on a model, but they already belong to a client - we should have gotten a pic of her in them!!

ReplyDeleteI'm excited too!! And, you're welcome! Love those earrings!!
DeleteAs much as I love your design style with pearls, your photos of the jewelry are what really get me. Feels like I can almost reach out and touch them! The colors and luster are fabulous.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Lynda!! ;-)
DeleteYour pearl designs are so beautiful. I have always loved pearls but not used them much. You're an inspiration.
