How can I match pearls easily?

- Mary

Using a hole puncher, make two rows of 10 holes on a piece of card stock. Apply masking tape to the back side of the card stock, with the sticky side appearing through the holes. The tape is sticky enough to hold the pearls in place, but not enough to leave a residue. Compare the pearls from every angle and find the closest match. Check out all of the pearls we have available, then use them in your next creation.
