It depends on personal preference really... I'm not a very symmetrical type of person but my clips do have to be the same :laugh:

It took me until my 4th bracelet to get matching clips! I figured this is the most I've ever spent on jewelry so I didn't want to double up on anything. Even all my bracelets are different : 1 SS, one oxi, one 2 tone and one gold. This is just me though, lol!!! Getting matching clips was a tough decision. I think I'm weird!!!!

I'm afraid to keep scrolling through the FB page. Something about scary snake pictures. At first I thought they were referring to something more sleazy, but with all the comments I realized some A.hole is posting scary snake pics! I hate snakes!

LOL...not at all, I just finished playing bracelets and Now I have to buy another onyx cab because I needed to remove a bead to make another bead fit.....anyway, I'll order it tomorrow...but I'm now hating my first 2 tone....so I might order 3 citrine cabs and replace those with the 3 gold spacers (1 in each section) To see if I like it more that way.....I used to love it so much!!!! :laugh:

Yes that's it! Thanks for posting. It is a lovely bead and your whole bracelet is beautiful. I buy most of my charms online and was trying to get an idea whether the Woven Together bead was larger than average.

It's comparable in size to the carriage that it's opposite on the bracelet and just a touch larger than the mother of pearl in the front of the bracelet....if that helps. Thanks!

I think one size down might be better though. I don't want overly tight either but as big as my bracelet is now I find I catch it on things. I can get three fingers under it, almost four and it falls down onto my hand a bit. I'm not sure if that is because it stretched, or if the place I bought it from just told me I needed that size because they thought I would put murano beads on it. I want it small enough that it stays on my wrist area without falling onto my hand but still large enough that it can move around a bit.

I need to go try a full bracelet on though just because if I spend the money on gold clasp, I want to make sure it's going to be the perfect size even if it does stretch a bit. The gold bracelet is probably way off into the future though because I will have to save for it and get a safety chain and I may want a gold one so lots of $$$! :laugh:

Yes of course, you must get the size that fits. Even if you get a size smaller, you will have your original bigger one if you ever wanted to swap!

You must have tiny wrists. I can fit 3 fingers in my bracelet but I like it like that. I have the size smaller but after I put my muranos on I felt the bigger size was better.

Yay, a Pandora thread! I just started my first Pandora bracelet this spring and (like many of you, it seems :cool: ) am already a bit obsessed. I have the zodiac rooster charm (it is so cute!) and am probably going to get some clips next. I'm not sure whether to get two of the same clips or two different ones... In your experience, what do you think looks better when planning out a bracelet?

I prefer different clips. I don't want any of the same charms on twice because that will take up extra room on your bracelet, where you could be putting on other meaningful charms. Looks nicer when they are all individual too.

I know you are on a break (and frankly I should be too with the gov't cuts that are looming over my Program), but the citrine cabochons are on the retired list. Can you still find them? Yes I'm an eBay chicken, which is why I'll only buy new in store or off Perlen!
