the PANDORA bracelet thread

It looks so pretty! I would add color between the silvers on the side. The pave charms are nice. The next promo is in the US in September not sure about other countries.

Thanks!

What are pave charms?
Yes you are right - thanks - I think I will add some sparkle/color to the sides!!!

No problem They are round or heart shaped and have sparkle all around. Comes in pink or white all types of colors.

- congratulations-

i think the safety chain should be gold. i have a gold safety chain and it doesn't stay on the ends. i thought it would bother me but it doesn't. the charms slide around so i guess it doesn't draw my attention.

I'm thinking gold chain too as I love the flowers one but am putting that on hold for a while.
Unfortunately went mad on Ebay and got a few things even though swore that Pandora purchases can only be done next month as I've spent too much in Aug!!

Can't help being excited to receive the goodies especially since bought my mom something too.

I live in Hong Kong and from what I have read us/uk shops are soooo much more friendly than HK shops .. And it s so much more expensive here!

Wondering when the next promotion will be so I can stock up on some beads!!

It's expensive where I am too, which is why I'm only buying online or via Ebay after this. Or else I'll never get my bracelet done!

Ohoh! Mind sharing where you get them? I am thinking about getting them online now too... THe prices in HK are are 30% more expensive than USA. And promotions/sales are never as good as well

Haven't posted here in a while, but I've updated my Pandora bracelets quite a bit since the last time.

Here's my very first bracelet. I wanted a pink "hearts and flowers" theme. Some of the beads do not fit the theme so I'll take them out in place of new ones. In particular, the elephant, teddy bear and probably the lucky cat look out of place. So I'm probably gonna have a fun "animals" bracelet in the future and transfer them there:

This next bracelet is my purple themed bracelet, but after my London-Paris trip this year, I'm converting it to a bracelet to commemorate that trip. I'm taking out the open works beads in place of green themed muranos (green and purple to remind me of Wimbledon!):

Last one, my double leather pink bracelet. I'll probably get two more beads for this. Maybe the cherry blossom dangle and another heart pave clip:

I also have a bangle and a black leather bracelet, with no beads yet. Still thinking about what theme I want for them

I love this bracelet, so pretty I have an Eiffel Tower charm on a different bracelet which I bought in Korea that I adore.

I love leather bracelet as it's great for casual days. I'm thinking of a double wrap one now seeing as it looks really good here

I also have a bangle and a black leather bracelet, with no beads yet. Still thinking about what theme I want for them

Isn't it fun to plan and replan what to put on each one??

This is my bracelet! Any of you have suggestions on how I should design mine? I like a more simple look and am not exactly fond of a full bracelet. I think some space on the bracelet looks elegant! I am thinking about some gold pieces in there ... Right now I think it is too silver.

I live in Hong Kong and from what I have read us/uk shops are soooo much more friendly than HK shops .. And it s so much more expensive here!

Wondering when the next promotion will be so I can stock up on some beads!!

Your bracelet is really pretty, I love the muranos that add a dash of colour. With regards to adding more colour or gold, it depends on what you are after. Do you want a colourful bracelet or a more elegant bracelet? Like you say, you don't want it to be full, so you are restricting yourself to buying some nice charms to make it look even prettier. If I were you I would go for some gold. Maybe a few gold spacers or two tone. The pave charms are pretty too, but I wouldn't advise more than a couple if you are planning on keeping your bracelet half full (maybe eve just one for sparkle). In the UK where I live, a silver charm will cost you $364 HKD (I worked this out using a convertor). Is this the same as HK? You also say that the sales assistants aren't friendly in HK - are they quite snobbish?

My family are from HK. Are you from there too or do you just live there?

Haha, sounds great, you must upload some pics soon. I think some gold in a bracelet really makes it look pretty and elegant.

Wow, lovely collections! What are your next buys? Quite a few people on here have mentioned the bangle and would like one. I've seen them but haven't tried them on. Perhaps you could put some two tone charms on the black so they stand out. Do you plan to have many charms on the bangle?
