Anyone got any tips for taking good clear pictures of the bracelets. I Have got quite a lot of new beads lately and would love to show you all pictures of my bracelets but every time I try to take a picture none of them come up clear. I have read my manual and tried different settings but cant seem to get it right :sad:

My obsession with pandora has just started but have already finished one bracelet and onto the next. I use the same beads but have different muranos in blue and black and interchange them with other beads that are not on this pic.

Do you have a macro setting? It might look like a flower icon, it's for taking pics up close. Take the picture in natural light so you don't have to use a flash. Don't get toooo close, get a nice clear shot and then crop it. Hope that helps!

I interchange a lot with my colored murano's. Sigh, that gets tireing, I'm thinking of doing a dedicated static bracelet, and start a new one to play around with. I have a "ful" bracelet, but want to add just a couple last purple charms to finish it so it looks fabulous, and take off the two tone beads and start a new one. that still leaves me with some colored murano's and my black leather bracelet though! :p

Got my 2 gold clips today that I "won" on ebaY. Wow, I love the way they look! I also got the silver with gold snap bracelet, that was shipped to today. Off to a good start on my two tone bracelet! Weeeeee!

I have 3 two tone beads I'm going to take off my first bracelet to add, I have 2 black lotus murano's, and DH got me the gold charm with the diamond and pearl dangle for my birthday later this month. (I know he has it, but I have to wait until my birthday!)

Hi - I have a black cord necklace that I doubled up and strung one two tone bead through it (I usually wear another necklace with two keys hanging from it and wanted my Pandora necklace to be really simple, hence just one bead). I have been wearing it non stop for a month or so except for showering with no problems. The leather holds up really well. I saw that the black cotton cords were fraying even at the store and said no thanks to them. But no problems with the leather.:smile1: HTH.

Thank you so much, loulougil!! I really feel as if I'm "done" cuz I'm just beyond happy at what I have and how it came together...but I've said that before! hahaaa! :graucho: (although I would looove the pink and lime oval lights!)

Also, definitely use the macro setting on your camera (looks like a flower) and use good lighting. With macro, you have to be careful not to get too physically close to the item you're shooting, just zoom a bit and it should focus automatically. If you're not familiar with your cameras settings, just set it to "auto" (the little camera symbol usually) and it should do the work for you! HTH!!

Very pretty! kikialakki. I just bought a double black leather today! I love the lighter feel for summer.I am just not into wearing my full bracelets in the summer. I think they get dirty quicker with all the summer family activities.
Am I losing my mind did one of you post about new beads coming out? Gosh we have 3 pages and I cant find to reread. It mentioned rubber bracelets are coming with single oversized bead WOW!!! :nuts: Maybe it was a Pandora dream????? LOL

That was me. I posted it before the old thread archived. It should be on the last page or the one before.

Love, love, love looking at everyone's unique creations. I was away on vacation but just checked the end of the last thread that reached 5000 posts. Had questions I've wondered about, too, regarding the longevity of Pandora jewelry. This is not an inexpensive addiction.;)

Some ladies have been collecting for years and some are fairly new to Pandora. I fought it for a long time, know myself - knowing I'd jump head first and I did.;) I am always on the lookout for P bracelets and can't say that I see many ladies wearing them when I am out and about. Weird, because I KNOW how popular they are.

As for them being sort of like worry beads - YES. When you are sitting somewhere and waiting, our bracelets are really something to look at.

I, too, have made mistakes and have a few extra beads I don't much care for. Guess there's always eBay to sell them. I wish they'd make better letter beads. I'm not liking either style too much and think they could do better than the two available choices. Not everyone likes oxidized beads. I do have a couple though.

I know there's a Pandora event in Sept. with a free bracelet with $__ ? purchase of beads but one thing's bugging me. There are a few beads I'd really like to get but I know they will be go out of stock come Sept. Wonder if I should buy a few of them over the summer?

Out of stock after Mother's Day was the kangaroo with joey in her pouch and that one is back around again. :-) I definitely want to get that cute little guy (gal).
