Fresh Water Pearls for Designs

[laurieopal]

...

These are a group of fresh water pearls, I'm designing for lately. The double pearls are particularly lovely to work with. One of the the singles is pairing with the with the obsidian I wrote about last time.

They have a subtlety of color that isn't obvious in the photo - although it is other wise a good image.

I'm working on the kangaroo with the opal and the bronze dragon is finally cast and it will be ready fairly soon.  The ammonite is set and I'll have a photo (I hope) next time.

Everything that needed to go out for Xmas was mailed by the 10th and I'm holding the other work I've finished til after the first. I avoid the seasonal mails as much as possible.

I'm starting to plan the new work for Boskone in mid February.  We've been having an surprisingly cold winter for San Francisco. I know, if you're in the Midwest or the East Coast you can sneer at me. I grew up in the northeast and I remember.

And I have a red/orange opal ring that I need to work on as well.

But I am taking holiday time off with my daughters and looking forward to it.

Have good holidays.
