luckyhonu Ideal Rock Total Posts: 517 Last Post: 12/27/2007 Member Since: 10/3/2003	First of all, I want to thank Bob at WF for helping me with this project, as always, he is patient and answers all my questions! I have a pair of 1.20ttcw studs and wanted to repurpose them to make different earrings - so I got the idea of pearl drop jackets and asked Bob to help me find AAA Akoya pearls. He found me a gorgeous pair of 9mm pearls and they were made with platinum chain and cap. So, here are pictures, please don't laugh at my earshots, my freckles are HORRID! I had the worst time trying to take pictures of myself. BTW, the chain on the right hand side of this picture looks shorter than the left, actually they're the same length, I pushed the earring into the box padding a little bit too much

FireGoddess Ideal Rock Total Posts: 12,145 Last Post: 3/23/2009 Member Since: 1/25/2005	Great idea - I never think to have jackets made...though I gotta get the stud earrings first! It's such a great way to get a whole new look at a better price! It completely changes the look of the earrings! And looks gorgeous.

Jewels Cut Rock Total Posts: 447 Last Post: 1/2/2008 Member Since: 6/3/2003	Hi Luckyhonu, I love your new jackets and and your diamond studs!!! They look amazing together. Your diamond studs look huge. I am waiting for my new 1.03 tcw studs which will be ready sometime next month. Your studs look like 1.5 tcw on you. The whole set is just stunning I don't mind you posting the picture of my jackets at all. I am happy to know that I am able to give others this idea. I love my jackets.....you should seriously think about getting one in bezel like mine. Once I get my new 4 prong studs, I will recycle my old 0.51 tcw studs from 5 prong to bezel. I can't wait!! Can you post more pics of your jackets? Would like to see the jackets alone. Enjoy your new jackets!! Jewels

luckyhonu Ideal Rock Total Posts: 517 Last Post: 12/27/2007 Member Since: 10/3/2003	Jewels, I will try and get jacket shots today. The weather here is rainy and so the picture might turn out dark. I'll try when I get home from work. Thanks again for the great idea! I hope it inspires other projects so we can have more eye candy. I totally want bezel set diamond jackets now! Will my list EVER end?

I guess I will have to add them to my long list! Same problem here, icekid! Used to care less about pearls, but suddenly I am jonesing for them. What causes that? Age? This website? Hmmm. Those earrings are driving me completely over the edge.

SanDiegoLady Ideal Rock Total Posts: 14,219 Last Post: 11/23/2009 Member Since: 7/6/2005	Aw, I had some earrings so similar to this.. But they were attached pearls. I had a pair of small diamond studs that I had the jeweler solder o rings like yours are attached. They were my favorite earrings. Smart lady for having them jackets!! I didnt even think of it. You will get huge use from them. Beautiful, just beautiful!
