:DHi Zoe
It depends...are you planning on filling the bracelet completely, or leaving some spaces? Because, really, once your bracelet is filled up, you never notice the oxidised underneath all the beads anyway!
 
Go for the oxidised then, at least you'll see it. I love my oxidised ones, i've got it with my pink themed bracelet, and because there's room on it for another two beads, i can see the oxidised bracelet, and it looks really good with the silver!
You can always go for the SS for your next bracelet!! :laugh:
 
maria, i think im going to take your advice and sell it on ebay. it really is just too big, its sliding everywhere and i was laughing last night and moved my arm and it just slid off and smashed on the floor!! i suppose it wont be a loss as i got 20% off anyway haha. im going to post some pics later i think. also where it the uk does the silver polishing?? but then im thinking maybe its an excuse to have a bangle type pandora and and buy another one hehehe!

ohh the oxidized bracelet sounds gorgeous with pinks. i wish they did a shih tzu bead for my doggy cocoa blush!!
what beads does everyone think pandora should release? :) x
 
Maria, thanks for your compliments on my bracelet, I'm really in love with it.....:heart::love::heart:


Honestly, I'm already thinking of a second bracelet! I was playing on the website last night and made a mix of green and purple with a lot of cz beads and bugs and flowers....kind of a secret garden mix! I'm not into gardening but I think that would look cute...add in the picnic basket, both purple and green grapes, ladybug, a few flower silver beads, green and purple cz's, and purple and green muranos!! It looked great on the website bracelet builder :love:
 
Oooh diva, that really does sound lovely!
I need to get onto a bracelet builder cause i'm really not happy with my pink bracelet and it's starting to annoy me. It needs more pink!! I'm going to put a couple of them on eBay, the strange dog, maybe the hippo and the alarm clock too, get another pink murano and the pink cz oval lights maybe. Ah, such hard decisions!! :confused1:

Your doggy's gorgeous babyskulls!!:girlsigh:
It really does sound like you're bracelets way too big, you could end up losing it, or damaging it.
Hmm, i'd love it if they did a proper looking dog!
 
Yay, i'm soooo excited! Okay, with all the problems i've been having with my pink bracelet, i've been playing around with it this evening, and i've decided to make it pink and purple instead :D
I'm selling some off (a pink murano, the dog, alarm clock) and so i'll have to get the purple cz oval lights, the purple enamel zen bead (both of which i have on my lariat!), the purple enamel petal, two purple muranos and a couple of clips. And i think i'll actually be happy with it! I want to go Pandora shopping NOW!!! :hysteric:
Ah, the relief...!
 
Maria! That combo sounds wonderful! I am excited to see the final product.

I did post pics of my bracelets several designs ago, but I used photobucket and didn't keep up with it, so my pics are gone! I would post them again, but I NEED to figure out how to make the smaller using my camera rather than an outside source. I have been messing with it, but I need someone smarted than me to tell me how to do it! LOL

My bead wish list for 2010:
Gold safety chain
Two-tone rose bouquet
Gold Forget Me Knot
 
I'm excited to see it too, givemegold, lol! I've been listing some beads on eBay, so i'll buy new beads when they sell. I've also listed some of my lovely boyfriends fragrances that he never wears - dont tell him!!! :laugh: i'll be buying Pandora with the proceeds from those too.

I'm really looking forward to seeing your pics, if you manage it! Mind you, maybe i shouldn't look at any more green bracelets, its too dangerous for me atm. I was back on denmark-beads earlier, drooling over them. i was looking for a green and gold one, but couldn't find any. How stunning would that be?!! :love:

Gosh, i've got loads on my wish list...spacers first tho, then the ones for my pink & purple bracelet. I'm in no hurry to do my black/cz bracelet, i'm still liking it partially naked. I put my panda onto it tonight, so its now got four beads and two spacers.
 
hey guys

omg i was in selfridges in the trafford centre today, and there is a pandora shop, wooo! i bought myself the panda charm :)

but anyway, this businessy looking guy there wanted to buy a bracelet and charms for his new girlfriend and wanted to get her birth stone, but couldnt remember when she was born or her wrist size. so he bought her 2 different types of pandora in 2 different sizes and bought 1 of every silver/stone charm they had in there. i was nearly sick with envy! the sales man was like are you serious?? he didnt even want a receipt to take that stuff back, he bought out the whole tray of murano and wood beads!!
i was like this cannot be for real!!!! :nuts:
 
^^^ I know, isn't my boyfriend just lovely...

AS IF!!! I told mine tonight that i was changing my pink bracelet to a pink & purple. His enthusiasm was overwhelming...ahem! :rolleyes:
But some lucky girl has one amazing man...wowzers, he must have spent a fortune. Guess he'll be getting lucky tonight!! ;)The sales assistant will no doubt be delighted with the commission too!
 
My first beads were the fish and snail, both long retired here in the US. I got a new digital camera for Christmas so 2010 will be the year I post pictures of my bracelets!

:yahoo: I cannot wait to see them!!!!!!!!!

I'm so torn about my pandora. I have the double leather bracelet and I had 4 charms on it and I was soooo happy with it . then my BF went and bought me 6 charms for christmas and I also received 2 others for the holiday sooooooo I went and got a SS bracelet but I think it's too big. it's always flying all over my wrist I have a small wrist but the salesman sold me a 7.9" bracelet cause that's all he had in stock. Any tips on how it's supposed to fit? TIA!
 
Hi Lovely Chatty Ladies!

Thanks for the baby wishes. We have our fingers crossed here. I don't mind what it is as long as healthy. Perhaps I will get a pram after all?! - it has been at the top of my wish list for a while.

I haven't been on here much as I am not working (gave up in Dec but may have a few more weeks in Feb if I am up to it) so feel guilty about spending $$ on Pandora when I should be getting baby stuff (which I haven't got any....). I haven't needed any temptation and every time I get on here I am tempted. Xmas filled my pandora fix though. I am also to busy with the garden at this time of the year, doing some book work for DH and being pregnant I skip the computer when bed seems like a better option.

I love the pics! (gee I need to do some up dated photos - I'm slack and a techotard...) My necklace now has as many beads as my bracelet - not bad as I only got the necklace last Christmas. They are all gold or two tone except for a silver turtle.

I will be checking out that denmark beads site as that black one is to die for! My necklace and bracelet are not "planned". I admire you ladies who can have the patience to buy beads in mutiples and to have a "plan". I have a girl friend who has hers all matching. She has admitted to me mine would "bug" her not being even but she said it suits me (I know she means it as a compliment).

The green peridot and amethyst grape beads are still available in Aus for $76AU. I think they are very nice. I wish they would do a "champange" colour dangle as I think that would go nicely with a two toned bracelet.

My first bead was the silver ball with the gold stripe and two gold bubbly spacers. I was going to do a "matchy" theme but it didn't last long (um... like a day)

I must say all my beads are favourites as most have been bought for me but I have choosen some for some special (and bl**dy rotten!) times:

Here are some:
# The gold strawberry (to represent my dad as he has planted 100's here!), bought with money he gave me for Christmas)
# Two gold angels (for lost babies - we didn't enquire about gender)
# Gold Cross with pink saphires and heart in the middle (for a lost daughter)
# Wedding cake (DH had the date ingraved on the bottom 'cos I couldn't remember! He He!)
# Two tone clutch purse (bought with $ from my Grandma) to represent her. She has one similar. She is in hospital with several fractures to her spine. :cry: As a memory to her when she "goes" I will get the tea pot as we love to have a cuppa together. (selfishly I am hoping she lasts until our baby arrives but she's in terrible pain after a fall and several fractures to her spine)
# The gold girl to represent my DSD who came into my live as a little girl not a baby.
# Our two tone inital beads
# Gold lock and key (wedding anniversary gift from DH)
# Gold Flower with pink Saphire (birthday gift from DH)
# Silver "good luck" turtle from my Auntie when we went back on the baby merry-go-round.
# I love you two tone flower bunch (unexpected gift from DH and DSD)
# shell with gold star fish (reminds me of our NZ holiday - pure bliss)

Anyway I must get up to the hospital to see my Grandma. I hope you all have a lovely day.
