I saw a bead today that looked beautiful in the display but dont know how it would look on a bracelet. It was a gold pram with a pink sapphire or cz in it.

I was really taken aback by this bead and the price. The thing is my `baby` is 6 already and I might feel silly for getting a pram.....but it made me remember my last pink joy. The other thing is I am going to make a bracelet with just a few choice beads in gold and two tone. So I have to be strict with what I choose...cost being a factor too.

So does anyone like this bead....yay or nay????

I love this bead- My son is 3 and I do plan on getting this bead to celebrate, eventully!
 
Well then between you and me she had a stellar day!:smile1: How fun! Which ones did you get?

I got 3 for myself -- the Posey, the Tree of Life and the 2-tone Flower Power w/ Champagne Diamond, and 1 for each of my daughters -- the Seashell and Decorative Egg. And I don't even want to admit this, but yesterday I ordered 4 charms from Collectabead (which the UPS man delivered today :yahoo:so quick!). I got 2 for myself -- the Clear CZ Ocean Wave and 3-sided Moonstone, and 1 for each of my daughters -- a Lime Oval Lights and another Decorative Egg. I really, really need to stop now!!! Well...maybe after Friday, since my local jeweller is having that Pandora event :graucho: (can't pass that up). Then I will definitely stop.

Did you say you ordered some from her, too? Which ones?

Oooh. I LOVE the 2-tone Flower Power with the Diamond. I haven't quite figured out how to fit it into a bracelet yet so I haven't purchased it myself. I have the posey and the tree of life too. Beautiful beads. Well... aren't they all and isn't that our trouble really?

I'm working on an enamel and murano bracelet, so today I purchased a few orange, green and blue four petal enamel beads, the green with spots murano, and the blue ribbon murano. Oh yeah, and an oxy bracelet with silver clasp and a couple of crazy clips. Eek! My bank account is crying right now! I won't even go into what I bought over the weekend... :nuts::nuts::nuts:

I bought the snake, turtle, pig, orange enamel triangle, purse, ghost, pumpkin, got one bracelet with lobster claw free, and a bracelet with pandora end free! And I bought the swirly ring! I am in trouble!! I won a bracelet on ebay Pandora with the heart, a swirly and graduation cap for 29.00!!!

Sounds like you're on your way to a serious addiction... Join the crowd!
 
I've decided to exercise my lack of will power since we were all talking about allbeads88 and bought the flower power with diamond from her today...great prices...waiting to hear from her on some other stuff I need...has anyone tried safety chains from another designer? the only pandora I like is the daisy and I already have it...I'm starting a new bracelet and I didn't want them to be the dame, but I don't really like the other chains...any thoughts??

Don't feel too bad about lack of willpower as I have been practicing major retail therapy on ebay over the past week! I've scooped all all but the blue flower enamel -- 5 of 6 colors are on their way. Plus got butterflies in green, orange, and purple. I think I've got a bad case of spring fever.....

Re: safety chains. I have one but don't use it on the bracelet I wear every day but having read the posts, I may have to rethink this and put it on ASAP. It is a Pandora chain and I've never seen other brands IRL to be able to comment.

TOO FUNNY!

I have a chamilia safety clip, silver with gold hearts, which I love. Since it's a clip, and not a regular bead it doesn't ride up over the threads of the bracelet. I also have a few of the lovelinks safety chains (I could only find them online from retailers in Austrailia or the UK) which are great since they are so slim and unassuming, but I have to put clips on the outside of them because the hole diameter is larger then the Pandora and therefore they just slip right over the threads (not too safe for a safety chain without the clips :p). But I like having clips right next to my threads anyway on the outside of the safety chain since it drives me nuts when the safety chain threads itself onto the bracelet.

YES YES YES!! It drives me crazy too:cursing:...I've never seen the Chamilia safety clip...I can't find a dealer in NJ (US)...does it clip on and then have the chain to connect the 2 ends?? any chance of a pic (I'm technologically challenged, so I understand if you can't!!)


When I went to fetch my bracelets I recalled that I also have a Biagi silver safety chain with silver hearts, which works just like the Chamilia safety chain. Yes, it clips on and has a safety chain on it as well. I'll post three pictures. One of each type I have aside from my Pandora safety chains. First one is the Biagi, second is the Lovelinks and the last is the Chamilia. Let's see if I remember how to do this...

Depending on where you live in NJ, I know there are several dealers in north Jersey. Have you tried their store locator?
