there are so many great charm bracelets these days! i myself have been collecting Thomas Sabo for a few yrs and pandora since 2010.

there is ofcourse also chamilla and troll beads

ive also just discovered the links of london sweetie bracelet and charms

with all these fantastic choices, what is your fave and why?
 
I love Pandora. have been collecting for approx. 4 yrs now. I also love the traditional charm bracelets like rembrandt.

I have been eyeing the links of london lately though... ARGHHHHHH....lol
 
I have a trollbead bracelet, a few pandora bracelets, a chamilia Disney bracelet, another chamilia bracelet, an ohm bracelet, and a no name bracelet I made from the local beading store. I also have a links of London sweetie bracelet with 6 charms. And I collect juicy charms.

Wow......You are a Crazy bracelet lady...lmao...Can we have pics?
 
I have an 'old-fashioned' charm bracelet - started off with a plain large gold chain bracelet and over the (many) years have collected charms that have a meaning to me, an occasion, holiday, charms that represent my life etc. It looks fabulous and always a conversation piece! So unique and there will never be another collection like it! It's now nearly too crowded (and heavy) to even wear. If I ever have a daughter I will buy a charm for each of her birthdays and give it to her say when she's 18.

I don't like the new style Troll bead or Pandora bracelets at all. Think they are too expensive for what they are and are not classic items. But that's just me and I know there are lots of people out there who love them.
 
I can't pick one favorite alone. I list my fav four in my signature (Pandora, Persona, Troll, and Links of London) but I really like Tomas sabo and chamilia too. I'm definitely addicted :shame:

Right now I'm burried in Persona's design contest so I know I'll likely end up with a few more Persona charms :) but after that it's back to a dead-tie between my fav four :p
 
one things that funny to me is i bought a sabo blue bead bracelet in late 07 and i bought a blakc bead one this wk. it was less then $10 more if i recall! and many of the charms with sabo are the same prices or only a couple bucks more thne when i bought them a few yrs ago but look at the mass increases with pandora...

Princess, very well said! I totally agree. the whole point of charm bracelet is to have charms that represent significant occasions/milestones in life. A charm bracelet should be able to tell the wear's story ..her life story, what she been through, how she grew into the person she is today. and most definitely, charm bracelets should be passed on through generations.

I recently purchased some charms from charmstotreasure and the quality is excellent, fast shipping too.
 
I am collecting some of the Tiffany's charms. I don't wear them on a charm bracelet, but rather as pendants on a chain. My favorite charms is the following: http://www.tiffany.com/shopping/Item.aspx?fromGrid=1&sku=25768469&mcat=148204&cid=288216

I love the Tiffany's blue enamel on the bottom of the shoe! I also have a few more of their charms such as a small purse and a paint brush and palette. I would considered putting them on a bracelet, but I am afraid it might be too much.
 
Pandora charms are what i'm going with now a days.. they're so versatile and can range from 30-hundreds of dollar for full gold+diamonds!!! :)

I also created a Pandora Moment!!
