Pretty! I think that adding muranos can complement the pavé charms wonderfully, especially if you're only adding a couple. I always think a couple of muranos look better than one
Thanks, I agree. Will get two

I haven't posted an update in since March and have acquired a few charms over that time, so I thought I would post some updated pictures.
Newest Charms & their significance to me:
Let it Snow: My grandpa died at the end of Sept. His birthday was Christmas Day and winter was his favorite time of year.
Enchanted Mouse: An Anniversary gift from DH (Aug. 4th) I became a big tea drinker this year and the little mouse reminds me of Gus from Cinderella. Love it!
Carousel: There is an amusement park where I grew up called Fantasy Island and it has a large carousel right at the entrance. We took our children and their cousins there this summer. We are military and don't get to see family often, so this is a special memory.
Violet Pave Lights: Just a fun treat because purple is my favorite color. I will probably pass it to my daughter (she also loves purple) when we start her bracelet.
Previous Charms & their significance to me:
Castle is for our trips to Disney
Carriage for mine & my daughter's fav Disney Movie, Cinderella
Purse for obvious reasons
Hearts was a Valentine's gift from DH
Football for taking our oldest to the Probowl, he LOVES football
Monkey for 6 yr old son that still sleeps with the same stuffed monkey from when he was a baby
Bee for our daughter, we call her "B" and she loves all things princess
Dog for Matilda our Great Dane & Lucy our new St. Bernard puppy
Pineapple for the 3 yrs we lived on Oahu, home of the dole plantation
Shell was purchased on our trip to Maui

Dilemma!
Hi ladies,
I hope you are all well. I haven't posted in a while as lots has been going on. For anyone seeking an update on the new Pandora bangle that tarnished after a month, I managed to get a replacement. It wasn't instant; Pandora sent it off to the repair centre and they just said it should be replaced. I will not be putting any charms apart from paves on the new bangle..
I now have a dilemma. I got a generous gift voucher as a Christmas present from work, and I can't decide whether to use it to pay towards a gold charm, or get a Trollbeads bracelet. I attach a pic of how I wear my main pandora at the moment.
I always wanted two more gold charms and I would go for the gilded cage one this time. On the other hand, I am seriously lusting over the more abstract Trollbead designs and their lovely glass. Cons for both: voucher wouldnt cover 100% of the gold Pandora charm, and if I go for Troll, it would mean starting a whole new bracelet and collection.
I am guessing you ladies will be biased towards Pandora as it is a Pandora thread after all, but I know a few of you collect both.
Thoughts?

I love your bracelet! I would buy Pandora gold beads over starting a Trollbeads bracelet. I have a bunch of Pandora and I decided to begging collecting Trollbeads and it never made me as happy as Pandora. I still have some Trollbeads and their jewelry is beautiful but I'm much happier with Pandora. That's just my opinion! I think two more gold bead would look amazing on your bracelet.
Hey everyone, I signed up for these forums to hopefully get some guidance because I am looking for a particular Pandora bead that I cannot seem to find anywhere.
I got my wife a Pandora bracelet a little more than a year ago, and she hinted to me that she'd like another charm or bead this Christmas. I got her a charm, but there's a bead that I cannot seem to track down that I know she wants (she pinned it on her Pinterest).
I don't use Pinterest myself, but I do know that all the things people post on there have a link to the page (or store) from which it's from.
The link is dead; the website is either down or no longer works.
This was the URL: http://www.pandoradiy.net/pandora-murano-glass-beads-pdll0250
The URL gave me a big hint that it's (probably) a murano glass bead. After searching for awhile, I'm not coming up with anything. Is it discontinued? If not, anyone have an idea of what it's called or a place that is selling it?
Thank you so, so much for the help!

Hiya, it doesn't look like anything I've ever seen Pandora o. Looks more like a Chamilia bead. Think the item is just a photo shop of what somebody would like. Don't think it's a genuine bead. Ask a Pandora store for confirmation.
Hth! X
mandajane, thank you for the response!
If that is indeed Photoshopped, they did a really good job making it look authentic. I'm browsing different Chamilia beads and while I can't find anything that looks like the image I posted, I can see what you're saying because of the design influence.
Oh.....I just cannot take my eyes off that beautiful bracelet and the cuttie teddy! Well done!
Lovely lovely classy bracelet! If it was mine, I would add a couple two tone dangles on to it to make it even more perfect. But it is just me.
