More Pearls!!!

[cushioncutnut]

My newest Future Fashionista strand. It is 16inches and has a beautiful seafoam pistachio color to them. Pictures are in natural lighting in my garden window. They are 8.2 to 10.6 mm...although some of the pearls in the middle look bigger than pearls in my other tahitian strands that are suppose to be bigger?? Oh well, I love them!

Oh wow. Those are so amazing! The color and overtones are just yummy. They look fabulous layered with the other strands.

As far as size goes, Elana always seems to (sometimes majorly) underestimate size. For example, my larger baroque strand was mentioned to be 14.8mm. I finally found my calipers and measured it, and the center pearl is a little over 16mm in actuality. So it is probable that E told you a smaller size than your strand actually is. Which certainly doesn''t suck!
