Real pearls should have a slightly rough surface that creates friction. They will also not be perfectly round. Make sure the pearls you are using are the size and shape you're looking for. They'll also need a hole to run the pin through them. This is not absolutely necessary but very helpful. Assembling both earrings together will make it easier for you to do each step, particularly when you're new to the process. This also tends to make each step for one earring consistent with the each step for its matching earring. Don't forget to wear safety goggles as well to protect your eyes. You'll also need two headpins, two French hook earring wires, round nose pliers, and wire cutters. Headpins and earring wires are available at craft stores or art supply outlets. Headpins are straight pins that have a ball or a flat circular surface at one end to stop a pearl or bead from sliding off. Decide whether you want a flat or balled end, and whether you'd like a silver or brass/gold-colored pin. French hook earring wires are long, curved hooks that go through the ear and hang on their own; they don't require an earring back.

If you're typing your letter on your computer, check for templates in the word processing application you're using. Most word processing apps have a number of different letter templates. Use a basic business letter template that has blocks for the date, your address, and the address of the recipient. If you have business or personal letterhead that you plan to use to print your letter, make sure the template you use has room to accommodate that. The easiest thing to do, especially if you are sending your letter to a long list of recipients, is to create a mailing list on a spreadsheet. You can then use the "mail merge" function on your word processing app to populate the fields on your form letter. The traditional business letter format includes a block for your name (or your business's name) and address, as well as the name and address or the recipient. When you enter your address, use your current address, not the one to which you're moving. If you're using mail merge, follow the formatting guidelines set forth in your word processing app. Typically this means enclosing in brackets the name of the column from which you want the app to pull data from your spreadsheet, such as "firstname lastname." Your letter template typically includes a double-space after the last line of the last address block, followed by a greeting. It may simply be the person's name followed by a colon, or "Dear" followed by the person's name and a comma. Avoid using the "Dear" greeting if some of your recipients are organizations, other businesses, or government agencies. Typically this greeting is only used for individuals. When formatting your letter, it's typically best to go ahead and get your closing down first and then draft the body of your letter. The word you use in closing will depend on your relationship to the recipients. If you're writing a letter for change of address of your business, you'll want a more formal closing, such as "sincerely." However, if you have a mix of personal and business contacts, you may want to go with something less formal, such as "thanks."

Vitamin D is an important nutrient for the body. Vitamin D is involved in the proper functioning of the immune system, cell growth, and cell regulation. It also aids the body in numerous ways, such as encouraging calcium absorption, promoting bone growth, and aiding in bone remodeling. Vitamin D prevents rickets, osteomalacia (softening of the bone), and osteoporosis (brittle bones). It has also been associated with cardiovascular disease, cognitive impairment in older people, asthma in children, and even cancer. Low levels of Vitamin D also contribute to the risk of colon and pancreatic cancer. Vitamin D deficiencies can increase the risk of high blood pressure, multiple sclerosis, autoimmune diseases, insulin resistance, and Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. Some people are more at risk than others for vitamin D deficiency. If you are in one of the at risk categories, make sure to eat as much vitamin D as possible. However, even if you don't fall under the typical category of someone who might be deficient, you could still be at risk. Have your blood tested to find out whether or not you are deficient, especially if you fall into one of the following groups: Elderly adults Infants who are breastfed Those with darker skin Individuals who do not get enough sun exposure Individuals who are obese, overweight, and those who have had gastric bypass surgery People with fat malabsorption conditions Those allergic to milk Anyone who eats a vegan diet For people ages one through 70, they need 600 IU (15 mcg) of vitamin D a day. Under one year only needs 400 IU (10 mcg), and over 70 needs 800 IU (20 mcg). Vitamin D can be taken as a supplement, as either D2 or D3. You can also get vitamin D from the sun. Spend 10 to 20 minutes in the afternoon sun two to three times a week without sunscreen. Make sure you expose you face, arms, and legs to the sun. Using a tanning bed is not the same as spending time in the sun. Make sure to consult a physician before taking any supplements, especially if you are on other medications.
