"Art isn't easy. Every minor detail is a major decision."
So, I went out hunting for pearls again today and still haven’t come to a good conclusion about what color would be best. I figured I needed to avoid the darker shades after what happened with the green I bought last time but none of the lighter ones jumped out and me and screamed “this is it!” So, I thought I’d get a couple of strands and see what you guys think. Left is with flash, right is without flash, and I didn’t have time to take a pic with natural light. (Ignore the green beads mixed into the last strand. I just decided to throw it in as another option and I only had a strung necklace in white.
[Poll #1057569]
Out of what’s there, I think I like the blue best but that one is a Swarovski shade and those things are expensive! 20 cents a bead for 10mm or 33 cents for 12mm and I’d need a few hundred of them. Maybe, if I convinced myself it was my birthday present? x_x; I really want to end the year with a spectacular costume since what I’ve made so far this year has been rather plain and boring compared to last year. But, yikes, this thing is going to end up costing even more than my formal Terra.
