We're heading to Europe soon on a 12 day cruise to a few ports in Scotland, Ireland, Channel Islands and Paris. We leave and come back to Amsterdam.

What are the odds I'll find Pandora over there???

This is my new Pandora Bracelet. My boyfriend got it for my birthday on May 17 :heart: I bought the $$ and Teddy Bear myself though. I'm totally obsessed with Pandora!

Coachfanatic, did you try the Store Locator on Pandora.dk ?

Do all of the Chamilia beads fit on the Pandora bracelet? Also, I was wondering if you guys could give me some names of people you've bought from on ebay/etsy who have good glass beads? Thanks!

I love my Pandora bracelet! My boyfriend gave it to me for Christmas this past year with our initials separated by a heart shaped lock with a gold key hanging from it---which he even pointed out was the key to his heart! :heart:

Hi all, I have just stumbled onto this site ( I am usually on the Chloe forum) I am after a Chamilia bracelet size 21cm with gold clip.
1. Any ideas where is the best place online to get one?
2. Is there a separate forum for Chamilia?
Thank you in advance.

Hi,

I while back I've mentioned that I would do lampwork bead with handmade silver core with the addition of unique metalwork design that fit Pandora bracelet & necklace,

My first prototype that I'm very proud of is born:yahoo: (You can go see the auction for more picture & to see the metal work: http://search.ebay.ca/_W0QQsassZbijoulune)

Here's the picture: (This one is a 19mm height bead, it's more of a focal size bead)

your comments are of course very welcome !

If you do an on-line search for "Chamilia beads" you will find several sites. I think I have dealt with Gentle Memories and Dolls and Ducks, but I am not completely sure. Anyway, I have always had good experience with the on line bead sellers.
There is not a separate forum to Chamilia beads and bracelets, just come to this one!

hi there!!

I am new to the forum, only finding out about it whilst searching for pandora beads online. It is great to know that other people are as obsessed as I am!!

I started my first bracelet a few weeks ago, with silver and cz beads, I love it!!

I have one or two questions though. Have any of you bought charms from ebay? I have one, and I have noticed that it is smaller than the pandora brand, is this a bad thing?

also, I know the bracelets dont strecth, but on my bracelet, the side that you screw the charms on, the lins seem to be bound together slightly looser than the other side, is this going to be a problem, or am I just being over fussy?!!(I have a tendancy to worry!!)

one final thought, are you able to fill the bracelet completely, or should I allow for a small amount of movement between each bead? I dont want to break it, as it is sooooooo pretty!

Thank you.:nuts:

I am hoping to get my first bracelet for my birthday next month, but I think I'll fill it up slowly with beads that have special meaning to me. If any of you have done yours this way, about how long did it take you to fill it up? I think I'd like for my first one to be meaningful to me, and then when it's done I'd like to start one that just looks pretty. I'm really looking forward to this, my DH thinks I'm completely crazy!!

Ford, the bead companies' glass beads are different sizes. From my experience, Pandora and Biagi are the largest. Chamilia are smaller. Troll are on the smaller size, too, and they even vary within their own brand. So it doesn't really matter, unless you are truly set on having everything match perfectly.
As for your links, I can't help you because my bracelet is Troll and they are different. I would just keep an eye on it, or compare it to another bracelet of the same brand.
Third, I would allow for a little space on your bracelet and not attempt to fill it completely. It is better to have a bit of play in the beads, otherwise the bracelet gets stiff. Maybe stop one bead short of completely filling it.

Does anyone know if Pandora and Camilla are interchangeable? I just received a Camilla bracelet and I can't find anything about it online. It looks like the Pandora stuff is identical though, same prices and everything. I'm just worried if Pandoras don't fit that I'll only be able to get them from the local jewelry store, which has like 15 choices and that's it :hrmm:

I have a Pandora bracelet and the Chamilia beads fit on it fine.

Make sure you spell Chamilia the correct way when surfing the internet. Here's their main webpage: http://www.chamilia.com/

Pandora, Chamilia, and Biagi are all interchangeable. Troll is the one that can use any of the beads, but most Troll beads will not fit on the other brands' bracelets. Troll clasps come off completely for adding beads, so the center hole in a Troll is smaller.

I also recommend going on Etsy.com and searching for "Pandora Beads", I have found many lovely handmade beads on there and they are one-of-a-kind.
