Aprilshack, how are you liking your leather bracelet? :)

I'm thinking about getting a single champagne leather. My silver bracelet is getting full and I'm terrified about losing it, I don't want to wear it everyday any more (or to uni) just in case. But my wrist feels bare without any jewellery...

The leather bracelet is great! I bought some clear, tiny hair elastics for £1.00 to stop the charm from sliding around.Don't you have a safety chain on your silver bracelet?

Aw good :D Is it quite sturdy? I think I'll go and try some on at some point next month when all the madness has died down. I queued for an hour and a half to get some charms on Tuesday and don't feel like doing that again any time soon!

And no, I don't. I have the lobster clasp bracelet and when I bought it the sales assistant said there's probably not much point getting one. I do keep thinking about it, but I don't really like the look of them. I know, I'm really fussy :p

The leather bracelet feels sturdy.If you have the lobster clasp then it's far less likely to fall off than the barrel clasp I would think.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Pandora! Pandora don't do sales but maybe your jeweler is having a sale because it's an indie store, but I thought pandora don't allow sales with their goods? But you are lucky a store is doing one! Sorry to hear about your bead, but I'm sure you will find good alternatives! I love the queen bee charm, it's one of my faves! It seems to be a favourite on here!

Hi Aprilshack, so i finally went to my local jeweller, and it was the last day of sale, was a tad bit excited and seeing that i love the two toned seashell & queen bee so much, i purchased them both, i also felt that i just had to get a bead with some clear stones to brighten up my bracelet, so i ended up with three beads altogether! :D So now i have 6 pandora beads and 2 non-pandora beads on my bracelet.
I'm curious tho, as i had read somewhere that all gold from pandora will have the hallmark on it but the bit of gold on the starfish & queen bee didnt, i thought maybe because there really isn't enough room on that tiny amount of gold for them to stamp their hallmark but i'm not too sure.
I also had to hackle for that gorgeous white box!
Here in Australia, i feel that jewellers aren't very generous at all with the white box. (My bracelet came in a not-so-fancy black box)

I've tried uploading photos but it says my file size is too big even tho i resized the picture. oh well :(

Can you take the pic using a phone camera? I do that with mine & it comes out fine! I had no problem getting a bracelet box with my two bracelets & have half a dozen little charm boxes. We don't seem to get any promotions over here apart from the free bracelet when you spend a few bucks. Can't even get the jewelry box here to buy, never mind get given when you spend a small fortune! I wish that Gilletts Au store would ship to the uk! Don't worry about the gold stamps on the two tone, they just have the silver markings, no gold stamp. The all gold beads would of course have the gold stamp.

Hi, ladies. Here are my bracelets updated with all my Christmas Pandora Goodies.
I got:
Journey and Clover from FIL
Primrose Path Clear Cz from my dad.
Magestic Butterfly from a girlfriend
Silver with cz heart from my other sil. I gave each of my nieces a leather bracelet with the puffy heart so with the xmas money I got from them, I got the heart with cz so we match and I can always think of them. They LOVED the bracelets so much.
Dangle Butterfly is from my daughter to me. We each have a half.
Daydreamer Amber from SIL
Little gold tipped flower bead from my girlfriends.
I love you cube, black diamond bone-y bead and diamond and pearl dangle from hubby. 2 tone initials from my hubby too.

There are 3 Chamilia beads on my silver Pandora. I love these muranos. They are so cool. There are tiny cz's inside the murano. There is a silver floral with cz's that I got as a gift from a friend. I love this bead and its retiring. Cant help it. I love some of Chamilia's beads.

The 2 tone initials are my kids and the center bead is their birthstones. Diamond is my daughters and the pearl is my sons. How perfect is this bead?

What do you think?

i wish pandora had more threads throughout the bracelet. how do u keep all the beads from sliding around until a section is full? it is very annoying for me when the beads slide in bakc of my palm.
