pick a pearl setting

[littlewitch34]

Pooh67_68, your ring is gorgeous! I love the pearl in the necklace setting, too!

 

[Pooh67_68]

Why thank you.

My cousin told me which oyster to pick for the pearl on the necklace. Its a little over 7mm and white, on a 14k Auli'l Cap Pendant.

My sister told me which oyster to pick for the pearl on the ring. It is a little bigger then the necklace pearl and white.

I got both the pearls and the settings at DTD. For the ring, the worker looked at my finger and said I have your size (never told her) and it fit.

We got the silver blue colored pearl and picked the ugliest and it had what looked like hair growing on it and got that pearl.

Well then....I hope to find an ugly 'hairy' one when we're back down there! Does anyone know (I don't want to read this all over again) if I bring in a pearl that we picked last year, can I have it placed in a setting? I think I even have it in it's original little bag that they put it in stating the size and date picked....??? DD picked one and didn't want it put into a setting, now she does....plus she has to show everyone that her's is BIGGER than mine!

Now this is just 'hearsay', but I was told to pick the ugliest one that is by itself to find the most 'beautiful' pearl! Of course, if it doesn't work the first time, I'll try the best looking one in the middle of the pile! I SO want a bluish/black pearl this time around (I don't even care of the size)!

I had heard that, too, so that is what I did. I picked the two ugliest ones I could find in the tank. The first one was the champagne pearl. The second was the blue-silver one. So, I guess it works some of the time!

We are going to be in Epcot on my birthday next week. I think I know what I want .

Help-what setting should I get for a 4 year old girl? Should I get a ring? Necklace? I'm the Dad and I have no clue.

 

[Ms_Butterfly]

I'd go for a necklace, since a 4-year-old will quickly outgrow a ring. A necklace can always be resized by simply purchasing a larger chain for the setting to slide onto.

I'd probably get a 4 year old a necklace. She could easily loose a ring.. it could fall off, or she might be more inclined to play with it rather than keep it on. I think a pendant on a small chain would be best.

 

[Disneycrazy!!]

just asking again...does anyone know if they have settings in shape of mickey head?

15 days until Disney

 

[Ms_Butterfly]

I think only Disney Cruiseline has Mickey and Minnie shapes, sorry.

I'm with the other posters. I'd get her a necklace. I have 4 year olds, and they would pick a ring themselves. But a necklace would be something they could wear for many years - a ring they would outgrown quickly.

So do the Disney cruise lines have pick a pearl on board? Or if you are cruising do you need to stop at WDW to pick a pearl, and take it with you?

I've only heard of the Mickey's head being on the cruise. Sorry, I'd love one too.

It comes in a box, with a can, little scoop, and pendant setting that opens. The oyster is inside the can with fluid to preserve it. You open it, dig out the pearl , and put it inside the cage setting. Definitely do-it-yourself! And the pearl is not nearly as nice as the ones you pick- on the small side and not as round. I bought Mickey and Minnie shaped ones on Ebay, and plan on picking a pearl to go inside on my next trip.

Thanks-a neckalce it wil be.

I didn't know you could buy the cages on ebay. I'll have to look! Thanks. We are going in November and I had planned to let each of my DDs do this - a Minnie or Mickie shaped one would be such a hit with them!

I have been watching ebay since I first read about them here (months and months ago). I have yet to see one. I wish I knew someone going on DCL, I'd pay them to bring me one or five or twenty five. LOL

I didn't find a Mickey or Minnie on ebay either. I did find a Cinderella coach. That will work fine for us. Good luck!!

How did you do your search? Maybe I'm not using the correct search words.

I actually did several different searches. But where I found the coach was putting in "Pearl Cage". One of the listings called it a wish pearl - si I did another search using that and found several that way too - but they were sets that came with a canned pearl to fish out. However, even they had some nice pendants to choose from.
