There are lots of bronze and champagne stones to select from - I'm thinking of one for myself because bronze is such a neutral color. With new designs coming out before Mother's Day, you'll even have more choices!

I just put a Easter bracelet together today for my home page that I'll post by the end of the week. It has the new Easter egg, bunny, bible, dangle cross and Murano glass beads in light turquoise and pink. I selected pink glass to match the stones from the Easter eggs. Pretty combination.

Right now there's a St. Patrick's Day bracelet with green Murano and shamrocks pictured that has gotten a lot of attention. Green glass is very striking and eye-catching.

We have so much fun designing bracelets even though it is time consuming. Visit my sample and ideas page to see bracelets my staff and I built. You might get some ideas and I welcome any ideas that you would like to share!

I'd love to see the bracelets you and your staff built. What is your website?

Thanks, Kat, for the nice compliment. I work on the website constantly to try to keep it updated.

I sent an email out today for those customers on our email list. There's a picture of the Easter bracelet in pastel colors. I turned out well with the pink and light turquoise glass beads. If you did not receive the email, the bracelet will be on the website Thursday afternoon on the home page and the Samples page.

Thank you ladies! Our latest bracelet & necklace creation is now shown on the home page. An Easter bracelet in light turquoise and pink is shown on pandora-beads. The beads on the necklace in the upper right corner are strung on a pearlized pink leather cord.

I have a Troll bead bracelet and necklace, love them to death. Check out the Troll line, there are very few authentic on eBay but you can get them straight from Lundtrading.com. The quality is amazing and the glass beads are just so beautiful. If you like the look, this is the way to go!

Here's my latest bracelet with animals and Asian symbols. The animals are actually ones from the Chinese zodiac. I think the new bunny with floppy ears is really cute. A mouse is pictured but Pandora retired that bead. Bronze stones were chosen because it is such a neutral color and matches everything. Safety beads are a must!

Would love to see more Pandora bracelets that everyone has designed.

Wow! I LOVE that bracelet! I was on your website and built a pretty bronze/brown bracelet. I used a couple of the dangle beads too. I wish I could have posted it for you. It will definitely be my next purchase. I could spend countless hours designing bracelets. It's so much fun!

Here's a Pandora pastel bracelet with an Easter theme. Eggs are new for Spring. Even though they are called Easter eggs, I think they are pretty oval shape beads that can be used anytime. There are small pink stones on the egg. I created this Pandora bracelet that is featured on my home page for Easter.

Pat, I love your creations! My bracelet is completely random but I think the next one will be more thought out.

Thanks! Random bracelets are fun, too. They have a way of working out since they can be arranged to look nice. Most of my customers have "random" bracelets. More are getting into designing bracelets with a theme like silver & gold, color, animals, etc.

Clips can be tempermental - be careful when opening a clip - if it is opened a certain way it sometimes bends the inside part causing it to loosen and open. When closing your clips, make sure you hear it snap shut. I have noticed that the "s" clip you are referring to is especially prone to that.

Pandora jewelry is really gaining in popularity. They are doing a lot of national advertising. In May they'll have a full page ad in Lucky.

I love the concept of this bracelet. Pat, your site is amazing; adding that one to my list!!

I purchased the cable and 3 charms a year ago; each charm had a specific meaning to me. Originally, I was planning on doing a "look" with it. But instead, my boys each purchased a charm this Xmas for me. There is no "look" to what they chose, however, each child a very specific reason for the charm he chose. So, on Xmas day, after I would open the box, each of my boys would tell me why he chose it. Now, when I look at a charm, I smile at the memory. My entire bracelet will be made up of these special and wonderful little "beads of love" as my 5 year old called them.:heart: Gotta love that.

I can do a "look" bracelet any old day. :yes:

I have the Troll beads, two bracelets and a necklace and I know that these beads fit my chain, I was wondering if you know where I can get the Aries, Leo and Libra beads?

CJJ -

The best Pandora bracelets are the ones that are meaningful to the wearer. That is the true intention of a charm bracelet.

Pandora's slogan is One for every "charmed" moment..... It is certainly more special that way. I love hearing stories of why beads are selected. It makes the bracelet so sentimental.

Have fun adding to your bracelet!

I'm not sure you're familiar with Chamilia. It's the same as Troll Beads and Pandora, but it is the most popular with my area.

I work in a jewelry store and when we go to the NYC shows at the Javits Center, usually the company's are represented and I've found that Chamilia's beads are nicer. www.chamilia.com is the website, there are beautiful charms there. I will one day post my bracelet that I just completed.

As for the price, the base bracelet is $37 then charms range from $16.50 for sterling silver to $47 with sterling silver charms with 18k gold plating.
