Hi all,

I haven't looked on the forum for over a week and it's taken me about an hour to catch up. :D

I have some updated pics of my bracelets, one finished and will start on number three maybe after May when we have Mothers day and my bday.

I think Izzysmom mentioned something about resizing photos, you can do it via Paint, then click Image, then resize/skew.

I have number two plain bracelet in 20cm but may sell it and get 21cm, my two tone is 21cm. My wrist is about 17cm but I want to add about 5-6 muranos and dont like it too snug.

Kylie your pink/two tone bracelet is beautiful!! I love the pink leather one too. I wish they sold them in the U.S.

Loving this pink and purple bracelet. Thats the colour scheme i was thinking of doing but i cant decide now. I was in pandora shop today and saw all these lovely different coloured beads and am now thinking of going all different colours. Its so hard to decide! I only have 7 beads on my bracelet including 2 clips with a pink murano and one purple murano so I need to decide soon as I got bonus at work of £150 today and want to spend it all on pandora. So excited!!

Do you guys think a multicoloured bracelet or sticking to one or two colours look best?

Must get a picture of my bracelet so far up here. Off now to decide what beads to spend my money on.

Quick question, if you were given £150 to spend on pandora right now what would you buy??

I love both. A certain color scheme is nice but will it work with all your outfits and bags? Depending on the color, thats the question I'd ask myself.

I personally did a bracelet with four different colored muranos...pink, blue, purple, bright green. Its so fun and cheers me up when I look at it. (a picture of it is a few pages back).

If I had $150: For sure would get a double leather bracelet. Then would get a two-tone something. Really like the Tree of Life bead...

kylie71, loving your bracelet!! I love the amethyst ball :love:

Using_Daddys_$$...wow, your safety chain looks amazing! :yes: How does the gold plate wear on it...i mean, how long would it last? I've seen eBay sellers selling gold plated Pandora charms (genuine ones!), but i've always wondered how quickly the plating would last, especially if the bracelet was being worn daily?? :confused1:

Thanks for the compliments, loulougil :D I'm just delighted that its gone from being all pink and me never being happy with it, to something i now love, and its not even finished yet!!

Personally, i prefer just sticking to one or two colours, but its up to you, the beauty of Pandora is you make your bracelet to please YOU, not everyone else :greengrin: divadivine682 created a gorgeous bracelet with different coloured muranos and it looked FAB!

Ooh, if i had £150 to spend on Pandora right now...a pink oval lights, the enamel pink daisy, the purple oval lights, and i'd put the remaining £10 towards a purple flowers for you murano, just to finish off my pink & purple bracelet! :smile1:

Hi ladies, I just wanted to thank whomever had given me the advice about how to clean Pandora bracelets. Several of you had told me about cleaning the bracelet and beads in warm water with dish soap. Well, I finally tried it tonight with my pink bracelet and it looks brand new! I was surprised at how shiny it came out. It took a while but was definitely worth the effort!!

OMG..... Gold Plated for my Pandora , no its solid 14kt. I didn't do gold plate because it may not last forever. I am unusually freaky about gold plate I have decent luck with my Anne Klein and DKNY two-tone watches. Thank goodness at the 6 month mark when the gold plate starts to wear I am bored with the watch. I would like a LV Neverfull this year so next I will do a 14kt white gold and yellow gold watch :).

Your pink - purple baby is looking awesome what purple murano are you thinking of?? :)

Many apologies, i just assumed your jeweller had plated it, bad me!! :shame: So is it an actual gold chain your jeweller attached? It looks amazing anyway! :D

I'm thinking the purple flowers for you for my pink & purple baby, but i think i'll need to see it IRL first to see if it goes. Any excuse to go to the Pandora shop...:graucho:

Uh-oh, i've been shopping...

So, today my brown leather bracelet arrived, yay!! :woohoo::yahoo: LOVE it! And seeing as i had a free day, i decided to pop to my nearest concept store. I really just wanted a look, just to see what beads would look nice with it.
Looking turned, inevitably, into buying...and now i have this :D

I got the two orange oval lights, one of the wooden beads and the reddy/browny murano, and i completely and utterly love it :love: My orange zen should arrive at the beginning of next week, so that'll go nicely in there too!

But why-oh-why do the oval lights beads have to be my obsession?? Why cant i pick another bead to need on every bracelet, one less expensive, lol!
