Wow! What a difference the lighting makes! It's like having another set of bangles. Were there any indoor light fixtures on in the first set of pics? If no, do you find the bangles look like your indoor pictures when indoor lights are on?
Yes jadeite is really amazing. Changes with different lighting and environment. For the indoor pic, the lighting was from the window only. No indoor lights. The outdoor pics somehow show the bangles darker than in real. I would say the indoor pics colour is the actual colour in real.

Very interesting! I'll need to keep that in mind while searching for my jadeite piece. Thanks!

You're green bangle reminded me so much of mine I had to take a double look. They could be twins! Here is mine under different lighting.
teagansmum yay bangle twins. thank you for sharing. Yours is such a gorgeous bangle and looks like it’s a chameleon. Love the shots by the light. Each time I change a bangle, I just fall in love with the bangle’s uniqueness.

I too love each bangles uniqueness and how they each can change a mood. My bangle during the day is identical to the colour of yours. If they were side by side I wouldn’t know who’s is who’s. Lol
 
The bangle box from Etsy finally arrived! But after putting all the bangles (and beads) in, I feel a bit uncertain....as the bangles are touching each other in the box. Not sure if it may cause damage? Wonder any of you expericne

but it’s such a good way to lay things out and clear what I can choose from. How do u keep your bangles?

You can roll cloth around the stick so the bangles don't move around so much. That doesn't look very safe, but it's beautiful!

I roll a cloth and stack my bangles so they don't bang each other then place them in a box similar to your.

You have a very beautiful collection :D I have about 27 bangles and 2 bead bracelets and I leave them in the individual boxes / pouches they came in because the boxes are generally different. I have to admit that I'm not a very patient person and having to take out bangles on 1 side to get to say the middle one would probably annoy me a bit. But that's just me :D

This is also me honestly. :lol: I actually always store my collections in one small pouch, then store those small pouches into one larger velvet pouch (8x10 sizes), if I get a bangle that came in those really nice cardboard boxes those will usually be given to my parents and I also stuff the bangles into the larger pouch (that is if I have any room for them :P)
