My local store is having an event this weekend. Buy $150 worth of Pandora and get the clasp opener for free. Not a bad deal if I was planning on buying lots. But I think I'll wait for kendalldew, buy at her prices and I can just buy the opener myself.

I love Pandora events! My local store is having an event every 2-3 weeks. I guess it is special for Summer. I don't know what the next one will be. Last time, we got a choice of the jewelry box, the clasp opener, or a key chain. Since I can open the bracelet by myself, and love love love the jewelry box that I have... I chose another box for my mom. Mine is purple and hers in tan.

I just use my daughter's medium guitar picks. They're cheap and they work -- 12 for $4.99 :D. Or if you buy the cute Ed Hardy ones she just sucked me into buying while we were at Newbury Comics it would be 6 for $5.99 :p.

I have been doing some tweaking of my bracelet, and nearly have it exactly how I want it. :happydance:

To complete it, I need to get two more of the February birthstone dangly charms and three of the Murano Captivating Purple beads. If there is room, I will also add a safety chain.

This is my meaningful bracelet, with all of the beads having a special meaning to me. :heart:

I think I have finished my cat bracelet! As I mentioned his name was Boy, I found Lovelinks made a heart with "boy" written on it, which arrived today and was a great final touch.

On another note, I was cleaning my bracelets the other day, and gave it a gentle rinse in warm water and a drop of detergent, and then gave it a polish with a silver cloth... then when I opened the clasp to put it on the next day, the barrel of the clasp fell off!
I am quite gentle on my jewelry, and don't ever recall having broken anything before, so this is a bit of a mystery. Hopefully when I get a chance to take it back they will just replace it.... of course I no longer have a receipt.

Ah, a forum after my own heart! Purses AND Pandora!

I actually have a Troll bracelet. I need to go back and read all the pages, but I was so excited to find this thread I wanted to post first. Here is my troll:

Sorry for the terrible picture quality, I took that a long time ago. Most of the silver beads are actual Troll beads. I have 1 pandora silver bead on there, and the rest I've just picked up at silver stores around here. Luckily I don't have to buy any of the glass beads since I make them myself (I happen to be a glassblower). I'll take a new picture tonight of my updated bracelet. I'm going to go catch up on all the other posts now!

eta: It won't let me put the pic directly in here :(

Sorry to hear your clasp fell off! Thats crazy! Was it the bead clasp? Silver or gold? How old was it? I would be so mad! I hope they will replace it for you, let us know!

Darn clasp falling off is castropic suppose you were out and lost the bracelet. I think it's guarenteed for a year but let us know; I'm sure my dealer would give me another considering all of the money I"ve spend there and new customers I've brought into the shop buying Pandora. Good luck though am so sorry.


Welcome to tPF Tracidawn you're gonna love it here look around. :smile1:

Hi Traci, Welcome! Your bracelet is beautiful. And here is the weirdest coincidence -- I was browsing around on Etsy this morning and I believe I was in your shop! I checked in here this afternoon and saw your name and thought "Wow, that name looks so familiar!" Just went back to Etsy, and there you were. Too funny! Your beads are very pretty.:cutesy:

I'd love to see a picture of your kitty bracelet.:smile1: That's so sweet that you were actually able to find a charm that had his name.

Your bracelet is very pretty! I would definitely get a safety chain. I have noticed as time goes by that my clasps are becoming much easier to open.
