when i was like 8 i think, my aunt started me on a add-a-pearl necklace for every occasion (ie bdays, xmas, easter). she did that up until the store that sold them stopped doing it. so i have a half finished pearl necklace that im wearing when i get married.. its not too eerie or anything, but just odd that you start an 8 year old off with an add-a-pearl necklace
