I'm quite proud of this keshi rose idea I came up with.. I've done some in other colors too, will try and snap more pics soon :-)

That's really lovely..truly original, and very eye-catching. May I ask what you used to dye the pearls?

It is really beautiful. I think you are safe because most people would not have the patience to pick out the pearl shapes let alone dye them ;-).

Yeah but keshis can be bought in any color under the sun.. I only dye my own pearls 'cos I'm a cheapskate :-D

It took me so many months of playing around and figuring it out due to the lack of info, that I do plan to make a tutorial (with a tiny fee tacked onto it) one day for those interested.. :-)

that, and sometimes the pre-dyed ones aren't dyed very well..I've had dyed pearls start to fade or rub off after only a short period of time..which is always annoying when it was an expensive strand.

Thank you, Kandice :-)
