Don't be sorry we are all here to help enjoy the addiction. Sorry I can't remember when but it was at least two weeks ago. I just thought it may help you get your fix quicker than waiting for one of us to reply to you. Enjoy going back over the previous post as the bracelet posted are stunning and worth the time looking. I often go back for ideas. I am creatively chanellenged. ( I think I had better get a dictionary very quickly)

Thanks - I'll track back.

I guess if the watch faces are intended for the bracelets then it solves the dilemma of wearing two bracelets at the same time. One can be a lovely bracelet and the other a watch with lovely charms. No husband can fail to see the sense in that argument (can they?) :D

However I don't seem to be able to find the previous posts you refer to - can you remember how long ago this was?

SallyT -- Go back to page 81, Post 1209 (I think these are the posts ChocolateAlful might be referring to). Also, if you go to the following website, you can see all the watch faces:

I also love the ones on the site you posted. Wish I could find those in the US. My Pandora is sharing my left wrist with my watch, but the watch is starting to bug me as I add more charms to the bracelet :laugh: Hmm, I think we know which one will win that battle!

lvchicago and pandora junkie -- Thanks for checking! At least I know that others can't find the hallmark either. I did check a few websites about identifying authentic Pandora, and they did say that almost all of the pieces are marked, so maybe this is one of the ones that isn't.

Thank you DaisyLorraine - you have a great memory!

Having checked back, and then looked at your link above, it became clear that the watch beads I had found on the Belgian website were different and definitely were marked Pandora.

I have just called the Pandora Concept store in Leeds (fab shop but expensive UK prices) and was told that I had found something that not many people know about yet. Pandora are releasing their own range of watch beads but as yet there is no definite date for their release. The
Belgian site shows the full range.

I was also told that the new Spring 2009 beads have just come in so they are on sale in Leeds (not sure about the rest of the UK) from tomorrow. I'm sure the gardening can wait another day! :yahoo:

Your welcome, no problem! Although, as much as I'd like to take credit for my great memory, I have to admit I've been through the posts a couple of times looking at everyone's beautiful creations. I knew it was there somewhere, so I searched the thread for "watch" and there it was (I know it's kind of OCD, but hey, that's just me :D).

Wow, that's great that Pandora will have watch beads. I wonder when they will make it to the US. From what I've been hearing, we won't even get the Spring 2009 beads until April 15 :sad:.

Good evening all!
Pandoraholic - I can't believe beads are so much more expensive over here, I realise now why you moved to Oz ;) lol, only joking - I appreciate a whole many more reasons - although the weather today has been rather nice!
Sally T - hello to a fellow Brit - if you've got them in Leeds tomorrow I hope they'll be in Plymouth too - I think I'll be buying myself a bigger Mothers Day present if they're in!! (with an 11 year old its a case of buying my own presents for a few more years! at least I get stuff I know I'll like!)
I'd like to see more pics of bracelets if I may, I know I'm a guilty party too - I'm gonna try and get some pics uploaded tomorrow - with the help of said 11 year old son! Doesn't it make you wanna grrrrrrr when your kids are so much more technologically minded than you! :smile1:

Never realised the watch pics was that far back. We all have been chatting up a storm.:lecture:
The picture of the new pony / horse bead (released in Aust not in US until 16th) does not do it justice. It is so much better in real life. It even has a very detailed tail. On my easter list for the kids (can't have choc hence the nick name)
Well off to construct the bracelet with the new beads.:smile1: Pic coming I hope

Thec pony is really cute isnt it? It reminds me of the `My Little Pony` toy. They are so adorable!!!!

My 6 year old daughter got to start her first pandora today because our family is going away without her. (She had pnemonia 3 years ago and still gets really exhausted and weak). So anyway, plan was to have the same beads but that ended real quick when she went animal crazy. So we dont have matching bags like I planned, but she does have a turtle bead!!!!

Aparantly the turtle represents / means long life to the chinese people so that is fine by me.

I also decided to spoil my 2 year old neice by getting her a Pandora bracelet too for her bday. For her I chose the teddy bead which is cute but a bit more blackened than I really like. It also tends to hang upside down, poor teddy!!!! But for a 2 year old it will be the bees knees. Mind you my 6 year old did not have any time for the teddy.

Can you believe that these 2 purchases took me over 2 hours!!!!!! Oh god there are so many animals to choose from. LOL

Girls I need your opinions. A friend of mine wants me to get her a house bead for her daughter. Non of us know what a house bead looks like but we want it to be a `house`. So my question is.....is bead number 79287 a house or a church and is number 79115 a house or a shed? Which bead do you consider to be a house?
TIA Sharon

Little Sharon I hope you have a fantastic time in the states- I'm so excited only 2 mths till I go. Before I go, I still need to find out where the Pandora shop is near Anaheim and in Vegas.

My daughter Loves her Pandora (though it's still too BIG to wear out)- so far only has the Dog- as we got a puppy last year. She wants the Princess and the Pea bead and Queen bee- i tried explaining that mummy will get her that in MANY years to come when she has her own family-lol try explaining that to a 4 year old. Anyway I want the QUEEN bee!!!
I want to get her the teddy- I love him to but too much black oxidisation for me which is why i got myself the retired bear head as it's a great shinny bead.

Will have to make the catch up in Melbourne between 16 April (Sharon gets back from US) and 19th May(I go to US):yahoo:

Littlesharon -- 79115 is the house bead. 79287 is the church ... we don't even have that one on the US website. Have fun on your vacation! What part of the US are you visiting?
