Well, actually, if it looks good, I'll keep is as my blog post for the day! I'm trying out the Flickr function of blogging directly from the Flickr site.

I picked this necklace because is really pretty and it needs a new home. It's perfect for spring. It would make a great gift for any of the women in your life! After all, how can you go wrong with a gift of a lovely pearl necklace.

I love the color of this freshwater pearl, but it's hard to describe. It's in the blue family, but there's a golden, bronzy, coppery cast to it, depending on what it's laying against. I accented here with copper and rose-colored quartz glass (man-made ... just fancy jewelry term for clear, tough glass beads). The clasp is a copper-plated toggle. It's available here in my Etsy shop.
