My doggy thanks you for the compliment!! His name is Bailey and he's 9 1/2 years old, but you'd never know it as he still acts a lot like a puppy. Labs are such sweet dogs:tender:.

I'm sure Tess has lots of good ideas for her own Pandora because her Mum has set such a fine example with her bracelet :D.

Awww i have a golden labrador called Willow she is 6 and still acts like a puppy. She is so blonde and scares herself when she wags her tail so much she knocks things over!

Hi All,


I've blown my budget on beads lately :) I'm sure y'all know the feeling. So no major bead additions for a bit. Still, I'm wanting a bit of color on my ocean theme bracelet. I'm wondering, do you all know of any good non name brand murano bead sellers on ebay?

I know we are keeping up on folks who are selling fake brand name beads and I support that. I've honestly seen some inexpensive muranos that looked great and some that didn't. I think a big part of that has to do with size. Troll, Chamilia and Pandora's muranos are pretty petite comapared to some of the non-brand name ones and they look in better proportion with the silver beads.

So if you know of some good, smaller, inexpensive muranos that I can enjoy untill I can save up for the good ones, that'd be great. Thanks so much!

Have you checked out etsy.com? I ordered some from there last week, so I can't tell you yet if the quality is good, but they did have some really pretty glass beads that are inexpensive. Alot of them were what you'd call ocean colors, whether you are looking for greens/blues for water or tans/pinks/ivory/black & brown for sand and shell colors. Some are lined with silver and some are not. The artists also tell you the size of each bead which helps if you are trying to keep them close to Pandora glass size. If you decide to do the search, click "Handmade" in the first box and type "Pandora style lampwork glass beads" in the second box.

Good luck!

I've had good luck with Bella Fascini on ebay. Here's the link http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Bella-Fascini__W0QQ_armrsZ1

The quality is very good for no-name beads.

Is it possible for everyone to move over and fit one more Pandora addict in?. :graucho:

I live in New Zealand, and have just found this Forum.

I discovered Pandora six months ago, and have been addicted ever since. I have completed my first bracelet, and am now thinking about starting a second one.

Welcome to the slippery slope! First it's a second bracelet. Then a third. Or a necklace. And what about oxy finish or a gold clasp? You've come to the right place as we will enable you in this wonderful addiction!

Cool, another Kiwi at last and welcome :D
I've still yet to finish my first bracelet (probably needs 'tweeking' as well) I keep thinking I should have stuck to the use of the same murano instead of three different ones but my hubby was a bit of an influence there...definitely going to start another one though - more neutral this time.

I ADORE your bracelet. :heart: :love::heart:If I owned it I wouldn't tweak one thing on it. Your use of the muranos actually has me thinking of how I'd like to tweak one of my own braclets.
