    Hi Regina, We use jeweler's epoxy to secure a pearl to a post. I try
    to keep the post as snug a fit to the drill hole in the pearl as
    possible. As far as the cut off area, where you removed the little
    blister pearls, I assume that you will be using a pearl cap to cover
    it. If you put a little extra epoxy around the base of the post so
    that it will coat that exposed area.
