Ooh Bag Me, i dont know!! I did have a single strand one, but sold it. However, i want to buy one again, and i'll be going for a single again. Thats just my preference, but i've seen pics of other ladies' double strand ones and they look great.
So thats really no help to you whatsoever really, sorry!! :shame:

But as you buy your friends Pandora...can i be your friend?! LOL! ;)

Bag Me, I prefer the single over the double. I just like the way they look. I always feel like they look awkward when customers come into the store and try them on. They look too big. Thats just me though. If you can, go to a store and try them on. Good Luck.

Thanks...I've been waiting for my store to get them back in stock...I need one before mid Feb., so I'm going to place a order online. I'm thinking single, but like the looks of the double too.

PS: "Maria 1978", did you not like the bracelet at first? Why did you sell, if you don't mind me asking??

I had to return my pink spotty murano :tdown:.
I only got it a few weeks ago but noticed a line going across it on the inside. They have returned it to Pandora to either repair or replace but it could take 2 - 3 weeks!! Had to change round my other charms but I really miss the pink spotty murano.
Has anyone had a charm returned to Pandora? If so how long did it take to come back?
Thanks

Maria,

I have wanted the red w/ hearts murano bead since it came out last summer. Valentines was a good excuse to finally get it. I love it. I returned my Chamilia Purple Disco bead. I've had 2 and both times, a stone has fallen out. I didn't want to go for a third time, you know? I eneded up getting the Chamilia bangle bracelet. I love it. The beads from the gray leahter bracelet are now on that. I love the look. I wish Pandora would make bangles.

Do you ever find yourself having Bead withdrawal if yuo haven't gotten any new beads in awhile, say days, haha? I can't seem to beat this addiction. Oh well, at least I know I'll get support from you ladies.

I was reading your post there, and when i got to the "any new beads in a while", i thought, "yeah, days"...and thats what you said, lol! :lolots: Its good to know i'm not the only one!
How you can work with them and not own everything is actually quite impressive, i'd have a bead every day (if i could afford it!).

No, i didn't like it at all. To begin with, it annoyed me that i wouldn't be able to fill it (Pandora recommend 6 - 8 beads on the leather, am i right ladies?), then it annoyed me that all the beads always fell underneath my wrist and went all over the place.
But i'm over that now!! :smile1: Also, i had the pearl coloured leather bracelet and i never really loved it to begin with. I'd like a black one now, and i'd get some silicone stoppers to keep the beads where they're meant to be. I'm having thoughts on orange/brown beads...??

Pandora recommends for the leather bracelets 5-7 beads only. Since there are only 5 beads on my leather bracelet it doesn't bother me that they spin all around. I am planning on getting 2 Chamilia locks to use on the leather bracelets. They seem to work pretty good and then I'll just have 7 beads on it. I own the champagne and gray leather bracelets and I prefer the gray. I ordered the black and red from my store. Hopefully soon they will come in.

Thank God I'm not the only one craving beads every other day. LOL. Yeah, its pretty tough being surrounded by the beads everyday but you get used to it. I usually have a baggie of beads on hold in the back. Sometimes I find that I didn't like a bead at all but when someone comes in and creates a bracelet with that bead on it, all of a sudden, I love it and have to have it. Sometimes its the opposite. I love a bead but then when I see it on someone, not so much. I have to have restraint otherwise I'd be in debt for beads.

LipGlossQueen, how red is the red leather? I've never seen one IRL, but i think it might be nice with red and blacks...but is it quite a bright red or not? Hope you get yours soon! :D

And what you said about not liking beads until you see them on someone's bracelet, i've been exactly the same since i discovered this place, lol! I have had soooo many ideas coming on here, its bad for my bank balance :shame:

Hello everyone, I usually stay over in the the LV forum but have recently discovered pandora and am now in ♥!! I was glad to see that there is a forum for pandora as well. I will post pics of my bracelet soon. I went into get the cola can charm (the boutique I shop still has a lot of old retired charms) but left with the new sea horse charm instead :) They had only 1 left and it was on my must have list. I ♥ this charm, I just wanted to share my excitement with people who understand!! :flowers:
