I would LOVE to see pictures of this if you have it!!
I've often thought that some of the carved Galatea pearls look like Christmas ornaments.juliebeth|1417561631|3794112 said:ok i first thought the title read "anyone tried coordinating their christmas tree with their pearls?" and while my second thought was "goodness that's taking things a bit far," i have to admit my mind first jumped to a tree festooned with cherry tahitian strands...

I think you need A LOT of pearls, like in the original post photo, otherwise it just looks like a random afterthought. Also, white pearls show up best.

Lady Disdain- I'd love to see a picture of your little tree,too!!
And how about this cute tree that J. Hunter Fiji Pearls posted recently on their Facebook page using shells from their pearls
