| Miss Layla in MiShel Designs Pearls! |
Why yes, Little Miss Layla is totally rockin' some gorgeous pearls!
Thank you for noticing.
But then,
she's been rockin' pearls
since she was just a baby!!
I've had some people ask questions regarding how to integrate pearls into their jewelry designs and what to do if you'd like to LOS your pearl and metal/wirework piece but don't want to harm your pearls and things of this nature.

| Freya Pendant - Blackened Silver with Pearls and Turquoise |
I'll be doing a blog post early next week that addresses some of these issues so that you'll have it for some guidance and I'm hoping it will help spark your interest in using pearls in many different ways.

| Peace Bracelet - Pearls and crystals hand knotted on waxed linen |
Because remember, even though the pieces I will create will be jewelry related ('cause that's what I do!), you're not limited to just creating jewelry with your pearls - you can crochet mittens decked out in pearls or knit a lovely scarf with pearl dangles (gosh, I wish I could do either of these!!) or you can create some cool wine charms with pearl dangles, be-deck your wine glass or your sunglasses even - you name it!

| Nicholas Kirkwood's Pearl Laced Satin Pumps - via Pinterest - are totally awesome! |
Just get your pearls out and have some fun!
In the meantime, hop on over to my
for bits and pieces of inspiration to get you in the
"Pearl Designing" Mood, okay?!
Until Next Time,
Peace, Love and Pearls, Baby!!
Cheers,
