Hi there everyone! I'm new to this forum and to Pandora. I've had my bracelet less than a week and I've already become addicted! I see that many of you buy from kendalldew on ebay. Who else can you recommend to buy from on there? I'm a little leery because I don't want to have a bracelet full of counterfeit beads... Just wanted to see if any of you know of other sellers that are known to have authentic beads.
Pandora Bracelets anyone?

Thanks for all the feedback on my bracelet. I really do enjoy having a group of people who enjoy this hobby of collecting, arranging and wearing the bracelets as much as I do.
Ldsquared---I had the same thoughts of you about adding a second trinity bead. If I can get one on for a good price on ebay, I may do that.
Spoil me rotten--I so wish there was a way to do an online build a bracelet using different companies. IMO, each company does one aspect of the bracelets extremely well and I love to mix and match.
Someone asked me if I was interested in the trollbead jellyfish and I most definitely am.
Ponygirl, you suggested I move the beads in one and it was a great idea. I was thinking of the number of beads for balance, but really this is a much more balanced look. It went from:
I'm really enjoying this bracelet.

Thanks for all the feedback on the leather bracelets. I'm glad to hear that Chamilia may be creating a single leather strand and will keep my eye open for it. I'm thinking I'd love a Halloween/fall bracelet and then maybe a Chinese New Year/Red themed one too. 
my comparison of the grape bead from jewels 2005 and the pandora jewelers: It is definitely counterfeit, but a darn good one. The detailing is pretty much the same. The main difference is size. The authentic one is much thicker and larger around. Also, the authentic has just one wire wrap around the bead and the fake has 2-3. I bought the peridot one today and will probably buy the amethyst one as well. Maybe give the fake to my daughter who truly does not care!!
i have just found out that gillets have a new pandora gift offer when you purchase from them.

I saw that a while back. I know some have gotten the jewelry box for much less of a purchase
Golden Touch -- Your stepdaughter's bracelet is so cute!
Thanks! It's not as cute as her though!
I have started her a necklace. She has on it an Echnida, the silver pink stone baby booty (for the baby girl I lost earlier this year) and a pink munaro bead and two clips like this. images.gilletts.com.au/images/imagesc/q1651c.jpg.
I will post updated pictures when I have them.
Ladies, can anyone post a picture of their new grape charm? I've been invited to a wine and cheese Pandora event for this Friday and I'm thinking of getting one of the grapes but not sure about the color...I'm partial to the green, but I think I could use the purple one more often. Thanks for any assistance you ladies can give me!

Thanx guys for the link! the woodeen beads are pretty but i would have to see them in person first before i would buy
For those of you who love looking at completed bracelets Denmark Beads has about 75 different ones for bracelets and 13 for necklaces. They have themed bracelets, color themed bracelets and they also show how much that bracelet would cost. Under each bracelet they show each individual bead so you can see which ones you would need if you decided to make that particular bracelet. I loved looking at them and thought you all would enjoy.
So i ended up getting two of the purple grapes, but only one will fit on my bracelet... have to figure out what to do with the other one now! The green is a nice color but the purple just looked better with all the pink I have going on. These grapes are so detailed, I love them!
here are the wine charms I got with my purchase, they are too cute:
