All nice designs ladies!

I just love my 2 Pandora bracelets, 1 leather cord, and double wrap bracelet! They bring me joy. :D I guess that will be enough to distract from the cost! :nuts:
DH is saying stop with the material things, and spending money! :oh: He has a point, economy tanking...but I am wearing all of my Pandora daily! I'd sleep with them on, but the Pandora SA's advise against. :laugh: I only have 1 bead in my lovely Pandora box unused at the moment so I feel like I'm justifying the cost so far! :rolleyes: PLUS! They work overtime, as necklaces, bracelets...:yes:

I've just put a loose knot at the ends to keep the beads in place.
The jeweller I bought it from had a great display of all their leather bracelets and some had knots in them. He promised me it wouldn't ruin the leather. So far I've tied and untied it a few times and it always goes back to the way it's meant to.
I also bought it one size bigger than I needed so I could knot and twist it.

I thought it llooked like a knot, but mine is already on the tight side, since I knew it would stretch. Unless I turn my double into a single?

Well, I have reached my goal of losing 15lbs so I treated myself to a reward:
sunburst clips w/gold and the X lace bead for my two tone bracelet. Sorry if the enlarge is blurry :yahoo:

Just joined the club last weekend with a starter bracelet and the evil eye charm. We got a newer store in our mall so I am all set to make a wish list! Looking forward to joining in!

Congrats!!! Bracelet is looking good:smile1: We have some of the same beads. Are you going to put some muranos on your bracelet? What's next on your wish list?

I actually saw authentic Pandora beads on consignment at a nice jewlery store near my work. This is cool for two obvious reasons: 1. savings 2. oos pieces may show up. Very exciting. (Are we allowed to name the place?)

Mrs.T Green,
I am :greengrin: with envy......you will not believe this. I have been ebaying for years buying and selling. I bought that EXACT brown primrose bead from ebay and the seller shipped it in a flimsy see through document envelope. And when I got the package it was a tear mark in the package and no bead. I emailed the seller but I should have known, the seller is new to selling on ebay and a 65.00 beauty gently used for 35.00 was way to good to be true.
Man did I LMAO when I saw you pretty beauty, great purchase and great look. I :heart: the minimal leather look and 2 brown primrose with a wood in middle will look SUPER. Can't wait to see it. ;)

That's sucks about your bead:sad: That is why I am scared of doing business on eBay. Are you going to get another primrose bead?

YES LOL.... I got my refund from the seller and start my hunt again. I made a rule for myself all beads over 50.00 (not including new releases) I ebay or buy with gift cards.
I have buying on ebay to a science..gently used buy it now from regular people not stores. It has not failed me till today lol. But I am still loving ebay.

I keep hinting to dh for the I love you bead. Eventually he will get it. I am planning on buying a couple of solid gold pieces like the cage bead or the new interweave(think that is the name) gold bead to set off the two tone ones. I will probably do an initial, seashell, Oh bead, and clutch purse. Ah, my wish list is long! This one will not have muranos but I will bling it up somehow. You have specific ones in mind for yours?

I've been doing 1 bead for every 5 lbs and so far have 6 beads with 2 more to earn. Then I will add beads or spacers for every month I stay at goal weight.

Yep, got the motivation from you and it did work. I am so happy to be able to fit into single digit sizes for the first time in along time. It may seem a little silly but hey, whatever gets you there right?
