Jade Necklaces/Pearls

[corkyb]

I would like one too if I can figure out what size.  Mary Ann, are you still going to upload pictures?

If I am correct, I think the tea-stained (if like the black jade Buddha one) are on a stretch cord type setting.  So size isn't as critical.

[MAGreen]

Yes, they are on strech cord, and yes, I am still trying to get pictures up. There have been some issues with the internet the last couple days, and I wasn't able to get online for most of yesterday at all. I think it is back to normal now, so I will be taking a new picture of what is still available and posting it as soon as I can get to load! Thanks for you patience!

We try to be patient, but it's like trying to get women to control themselves when an extra 50% is being taken off the clearance clothes rack.......... 

[MAGreen]

I am going to offer one more bracelet. I was going to keep it, but I don't think I will ever wear it and I can pick up another one if it becomes available. This one is not tea stained, but "old jade" very dark green and black Buddha heads! I love it, but I tend to wear my bangles more and it will just sit in my collection looking pretty. It was $26 and I will get pictures up as soon as I can. Thanks again, everyone, for making this sooo much fun for me!

BTW, I would like to streamline the process a little here, as it often takes me half the day to sort all the post and PM's and then go back and forth. So how about this...PM me with whatever it is you would like along with your address and any questions you may have. That will allow me to go down the list and bag and tag easier. I will respond with answers and totals and my email and anything else you need. You are of course more than welcome to post here as well, but if you are asking for an item, please PM me!
Thank you!

[MAGreen]

And it's gone! The old jade has been claimed! I will go work on those pictures now, although there isn't much left...the jade necklace and earrings, and um...well, the tea sets are still here as well as a couple silver paper weights, and that's about it!

maybe take pics with your cell phone and send from your phone to an online storage site that you can post from and bypass uploading through your internet service provider?

Here's a tutorial for PhotoBucket's mobile service.....

Hi! Sorry I never managed to get pics up this week, but as I said there isn't much to show right now...but there will be tonight! We are headed out this afternoon to get some yummy sushi and then we will sit in on the auction for the rest of the evening. Our internet is working again, I had to go one day without, and then I hijacked the neighbors for a another day, but now we are up and running again so I can get pictures up tomorrow with all the new finds! Wish me luck!

[F1Wild]

Have fun Mary Ann!  I'm sure your sushi is even better than ours.   

[Addie]

Good luck! Hope you have fun!

Perfect timing! Hubby may have a new work contract coming up so - hopefully we'll have money coming in once again (as opposed to going out!).  Of course, he won't know about the job until next week, but...

Have fun!

Good luck to your family.  I've been out of work for over a year and it sure does cut in on the fun, doesn't it?!

Well, last night was kind of a bust. I only managed to get 5 pearl necklaces and a pair of earrings. I got two of them for only $14, but they had put them in the same package and they got tangled so bad I can't get them apart! I am going back today to see if they will give me new ones. So, if I can get them replaced, there will be two floating pearl necklaces for $9 each including shipping. They are really beautiful, one is white and the other is peach. They have several strands of "fishing line" with pearls tied in so it looks like they are floating. I did get a strand of lavender pearls for $19, a strand of large black pearls for $24, and a strand of pink pearls for $17. The earrings are kind of cool, they are like a net cage with 3 loose pearls inside, black white and off white. $9 for them. I did get one bangle, and it is really amazing dark green, it was $27 and it is a small. It's thinner than the other ones, but the color is just amazing!
I am headed back down there today to see what I can do about the tangled necklaces, so I may have more and then I will get pics up. They have a ton of jade this week. Some really neat pieces too! Does anyone have a fondness for pigs? They have really cute pairs of pigs in jade. I will see what else and if I can get my hands on any of it!
Hopefully today will be better than yesterday!

I did get a strand of lavender pearls for $19, a strand of large black pearls for $24, and a strand of pink pearls for $17.

Are these all the shorter strands?  Or are any long strands?

[Sofie]

I would like the large black pearls for $24, the lavender pearls for $19 and one of the white floating pearl necklaces for $9.

Edited to say: If they are not spoken for already.

Good luck to your family.  I've been out of work for over a year and it sure does cut in on the fun, doesn't it?!

Yes ma'am, it sure does.  Thanks for the good wishes! Hubby works contract to contract so we prepare for down time, but possibilities seem unusually few and far between right now.  Are you still looking? 

[MAGreen]

The black and lav are 18", the pink are 16". All single strand.

My husband does contract also, but is super busy and well paid.  I'm still looking, but thinking (okay, more than thinking) of starting an online store.  Maybe the major health issues I'm having are really a blessing in disguise??

Now, the necessities must be paid, but these beautiful jade pieces are so hard to resist.

[MAGreen]

Today was a bust too! I am sooo bummed! I did get some items, and I will get pictures up tomorrow, now that the net is fixed out here. My daughter really wanted to get a piece of jade, but we just didn't find anything she really liked. I did get a couple pieces that I will post pics of if anyone is interested. I will come up with something special for you all tomorrow. I really love doing this and hearing how much you enjoy the pearls and jade and other goodies is so much fun for me!
Well, I am going to get some rest, it's been a long day. Pics will be up tomorrow as soon as I get up and feed the kids!
Thanks everyone!

I just found this thread and I am giddy with excitement!

[njsweetp]

Hi Mary Ann,
I am interested in the 16" pink pearl single strand necklace.  I need to see a picture to see how big/small the pearls are   Thanks!

[drenee]

sixnsolid, welcome to the thread.  Mary Ann gets some beautiful items. 
I have received a lavender bangle, two sterling silver bangles, a triple
strand of pink pearls.  All are absolutely beautiful.  And I'm definitely
waiting to get more.  It's so much fun knowing Mary Ann is going to
an auction and waiting to see what she found.

Yes this is addicting.  I've bought pink pearls, black pearls, white/cream pearls, mixed pearls, with matching earrings, cz rings, beautiful necklasces with stones and coral with matching earrings, and I know I've bought more than that.  I am currenlty wearing the heart glass earrings which have painted roses on them.  Plus I've had some jade necklaces that my daughter and son have gotten too.  I'm currently waiting on a baby jade bracelet for my Ella too.

[Susan in VA]

I'm interested in the net cage earrings, if they're still available.  Could you post a picture of those?   I found someone at the last crafts show who will convert regular earrings to clip-ons for me, so now I have more options!

[Xina]

Hi everyone! Is there a website we need to visit to see the items or does everyone PM MaryAnn for photos?
