Pearls! Pearls! Pearls! Blog Hop Revel-June 29th

Hi All,
Oops!...goofed again...am going to have to start looking at the calendar BEFORE I do anything that has to do with Revels! Thought I was late getting this posted...turns out am a day early.  Sorry about that!!...have had technical difficulties with getting pictures to load...and was concentrating on getting that taken care of and NOT paying any attention to dates...etc...
But did finish two pieces using my very favorite type of beads this month, Pearls! :)
Was tickled pink to learn that a Pearl Blog Hop was being organized by Shel of MiShel Designs...thanks Shel!
Love pearls, so felt this was perfect...I used Bi-WA pearls and CZ Picasso Amethyst 3mm rounds with one necklace and Bi-WA and round pearls with CZ Picasso rounds in pink/gold in the other...
...here are a couple of pictures of the strands of pearls...sorry the pictures aren't very good, will try again in the morning to see if the light is better outside...the pictures just don't do them justice! 
 

 

 
...and here are pictures of the necklaces that I created...:)
            






...more pictures to follow...don't think I have enough in computer memory to upload my pictures anymore...it's getting slower and slower, so will have to be changing things as soon as I get a chance to as well!
     Finally figured out how to get the link onto my page...please see below...:)

  1. I love Biwa pearls and your 2 necklaces. It's great to see what everybody has done with pearls. Nothing traditional yet!

  2. Oh I'm so happy you joined in!! (a day early, a day late, it's all good!!) I love your necklaces - just perfect for summer I think. They colors and the textures are just super! Beautiful all around! Good luck w/the computer problems - I've had those this month too - must be because Mercury is in Retrograde right now. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!! Thanks for joining the pearls blog hop!!

    1. I wish I could have done better, bigger pictures too! Am having quite a bit of trouble with the computer not co-operating with me on this issue...will be asking my son-in-law if he can help me with it (he's a computer wiz!).
