Thank you for your response! I love that you got a pandora for your pup as well, I love the thought and meaning behind it makes it that much more special. And I love the essence bracelets as well!

I am a bit worried about the key to my heart charm in general about the key getting caught on something and ripped off, has anyone had problems with this charm? I won't be sleeping with it on good call! And I will spend some time practicing removal and putting on haha :) it's putting on that is the worst!

Thank you again for your kind words.
I have it and surprisingly it has never once got caught. I thought the same as you but I don't think it will. I've had mine for 5 years.
 
i have a much smaller collection than I thought! even though I have been working at Pandora for a few weeks as holiday help, I have mostly spent it on christmas presents for others and i added three charms to my essence bracelet.
i put all these on my silver bracelet, though I also have an oxidised bracelet.
i have been considering three charms... Stella, Gilded Cage, and Golden Dragonflies. I can only buy one.
I cannot say that I will always wear my bracelet like this, I merely wanted to show you all the Pandora charms I have :)

Your bracelet is beautiful. I love it.x
 
If the bracelet tarnishes, can't we just take it to a jeweler to get it cleaned in the machine? Doesn't that restore it?
Yes certainly if it is tarnished. In fact a silver polishing cloth will work just as easily, however if chemicals get on it and make it dull then nothing will bring the shine back except sending it back professionally at a cost to have it polished.
 
I received my very first Pandora bracelet as a Christmas gift from my boyfriend this year! I'm super excited about it, but today I noticed a kink in it. It is especially noticable to me when I'm wearing it, as the shape makes it fit weird. Anyway, here's to hoping for a hassle-free exchange tomorrow!

Don't worry it is just one side getting more relaxed. After a while your whole bracelet will become soft instead of rigid. However if you are unhappy then exchange it as it is precious.
 
Thank you so much Tabitha! A bracelet opener is such a great idea. I definitely won't be sleeping or bathing with the bracelet I'm glad I asked for advice before I did either one! It's so special I would not want to risk anything happening. Thank you for your response and advice!

Another question I have for everyone, do you recommend getting the safety chain? I probably will but is it that likely that the bracelet will come undone?

Thank you all and I love all the gorgeous bracelets!

A guitar pick works perfectly as an opener! :smile1: I like safety chains, they look good as well as the extra security they give.
 
Some of my gifts for Christmas. As you can see, I have the silver and gold safety chain which I love, the orange/black and gold charm on the oxi, the two tone love and hugs on the oxi, the pink oyster clip on the oxi, and I have the rose gold Fossil watch too, plus the black leather gloves and Vivien Westwood earrings.

As a treat I got the blue flower murano for myself and the earrings for my friend's birthday which isn't for a few months, but I will keep them for her as they were both in the sale.

Thanks - I'm just concerned because I've only had it since Christmas day and I've taken really good care of it, so I'm not sure why the shape is so off.

I'm going in to have it looked at. I may also buy a safety chain while I'm there. I'll post pics if I do :)

I love your bracelet by the way. I can't wait until I fill mine up! Do most of your charms have personal meaning or did you choose them based on design??

Thanks!x My charms are just charms that I like. Some have meaning and some I like because they are pretty. I have lots more charms and another couple of bracelets. I know most people apply meaning to their charms but because I have been wearing my bracelets for about 8 years, I just go for the pretty charms now haha! My friend and I buy charms for each other for xmas and birthday gifts so I guess they do have meaning........Anyway, when you first got your bracelet did it have the kink in? Did you sleep in it? My experience over the years is that certain places on the bracelet soften sooner than other areas - weird I know. The bracelet is rigid when you first get it and over the course of a month or so, the bracelet becomes very floppy and flexible. This is how it will become. Are you happy with this?
