I went to a bead shop the other day and couldn't resist getting these pearls. It was their last strand, and the color is a gorgeous platinum gray with lots of lustre!

I started making a neaklace and stopped when I ran out of pearls. The necklace is 33 inches long right now, and I feel it is a weird lenght on me, so I was wondering if I should cut it to a shorter lenght or not...

Here it is long



And here it is like it would look shorter



And a closeup of the pearls because I couldn't resist!

Thanks! I have a lot of tops that are v-necks and some low cut, and sometimes I end up wearing shorter necklaces to fill the neckline void...

I like it both ways.
Is there a way to "customize" the length? Maybe you can adjust the length depending on what you feel like wearing by clipping it onto one of those rings connecting the pearls together. If you wear it short, there will be a long string of pearls behind your neck, but you could easily hide it by tucking it in your shirt. I don't know how comfortable that will be though! hahaha
