Not me this time. I have one already filled up and am working on another. The problem is I am not sure which direction I want to go with this new one. I have a few on it now but just can't decide if I want to put glass beads on it or not. My first is a two tone and has beads on it that have a meaning. The second one is more formal if you will but still not sure about the glass beads. for those who have the Murano beads do you love them? Do they make the bracelet tighter because they are bigger?

Muranos become so addictive. But if i were you i would wait and see the new release muranos, Before you make your choice. They are a bit bigger so they take up more room but you can accomodate by using fewer silver beads and spacers/dangles . The other thing with muranos is you can buy different colours and change them to match what your wearing . I love them x;)

Yes, your 2nd bracelet will be tighter then your two tone if you put muranos on it. Depending on how many and how they are spaced will depend on how much tighter.

Some of the muranos on my bracelets have meaning. I have the black with raised blue dots for my weimaraner. His coloring is called blue, but he is the exact color of the charcoal grey of the bead and when he was a puppy we called him lump head. I have the orange bead with the raised orange ribbon for my rhodesian ridgebacks who are the same color as the bead and have a raised ridge of hair that grows down the middle of their back. You can have just as much fun picking sentimental value muranos as you can the silver and gold beads. I have a few few more muranos that have definite meaning, but the rest are purely for color and fun.

I love them so much, I can't seem to put together a bracelet without them.

not me this time. For once she didn't have anything I was wishing for. I just spent $100 at Artisan to get the free jewelry box for my daughter and I'm still paying on my layaway gold strawberry. So I was glad she didn't cause it's hard to pass up those prices

What a cutie pie! He looks like he has a fun personality.

Yesterday I had to take my Boy cat to the vet for the last time. He was getting too unwell from his long term kidney problems to let him go on, we were already doing subQ fluids for the last 6 weeks but it wasn't really helping.
He was a stray I picked up 4 years ago, and he just had the most gentle soul.
He is home with me now and Angelique (the cat in my pic) has been saying goodbye, and in an hour we leave to have him privately cremated.
I know there are lots of pet lovers here who understand. Such a hard thing to have to do, even when you know it's right. We'll miss our sweet Boy very much.

So sorry to hear about your loss. He was lucky to have such a loving home. My thoughts are with you and your family

Me, too. I check constantly and the one afternoon I was really busy, I missed it. The only thing that makes me feel better is that she didn't have the one item that I really need. Oh, well, maybe next time.

so today i bought my 2nd bracelet, the ss one with the 14k clasp... but I'm kind of disappointed with it. The bead clasp is smaller than the silver one, and there is no crown above the letter "o" of Pandora!!!! Is that normal for this bracelet??

yes unfortunatley. i have been told majority of the 14k pecieces are a lot smaller than the normal SS ones. i had the same problem with my 14K/SS and my 14k safety chains!

the newer style claps have the crown above the "o". your first bracelet would have been the newer style. the older and original styles clasps used to just have pandora on them. if you really wanted to, you could probably go back and see if you could swap your 2tone bracelet with a newer one with the crowned "o". thats if they have any in stock.

i have both of them, one clasp has a crown and one with no crown.

thanks, it sounds like they cheap out a bit with the gold. I think either metal should be made the same size, since so many people do a two tone look and mix them. I did notice it while I was at the store and had them check, none of their gold or oxidized bracelets had the crown!! No big deal I guess but I liked the crown logo better.

Just brought my pandora bracelet with 2 charms from the jewelers!!
I got the puffed heart charm with pink stone and the pink oval stones charm (6585337), i am in love but i just can't wait for my bracelet to get full!
I was relaly dissapointed because the store had such a limited choice of charms and beads, no muranos! =( so i think my search will be internet based!
I cant wait to get more now! xx

I cleaned out my jewelry box on Friday and purged all of my old, ugly and broken gold. I decided to take it to my favorite jeweler and sell it. After it was weighed and calculated, they offered me $300 cash or $500 in Pandora!!!! I chose the Pandora, of course! Now, it is like I can shop there for free! I am so excited to go there this week and make some bead choices. I only got the elephant and the ebb and flow beads on Friday and have a lot more credit to use there as soon as I choose what I want. The Pandora area was so crowded on Friday that I didn't stick around choosing from the cases. I just took a new catalog and have been shopping from that until I go back on Monday. I am being really picky and choose-y this with this "purchase." I have tons of bead combinations that spend the rest of my money and I am having fun on the bracelet builders on-line!
