About this design:
OK...If I can gush about the ones I love I guess I should mention the ones I am not so happy with. It did not turn out quite like I had imagined. Even as I was stringing it I liked it, but once it was done, IDK...can't put a finger on what is missing. Any comments or suggestions are welcomed.
Components:
Gray pearls, silver pearls, rose quartz beads.Additional Images:

grama rose aka stormy says:I love the combo of beads I think the pieces of rose quatz should be lower to the pendant and the smaller pearls finishing off thats my 2 cents large on the bottom small on the top unless they are all big/////

Skittles mommy says:I think I will re-do this one and use all the suggestions – lower the pink and surround with silver beads. I will post pics once I am done!

Chicky Bear-Tara says:Very pretty! I saw your redo first, and I think you’ve done the right thing by redoing. Although, I think this one is pretty!
