Hi jollywa, that dragon bead on Gilletts in Australia is actually the dinosaur - its exactly the same.
That is too funny!
Hello-
My Pandora leather bracelets have held up terrific! My mom and I both had Chamilia leather that broke. The leather separated from the sterling silver. I soon after that had stones fall out of my Swarovski crystal Chamilia beads. I ended up selling my Chamilia on eBay because I was too afraid to wear. I was always in fear of my Chamilia bracelet breaking again or losing more stones. Chamilia replaced everything but I was disengaged after all the drama. My mom wears all her Chamilia mixed with Pandora. I however am a charmbracelet purist. I have a hardy Pandora collection and I just bought my first Swarovski brand charm that I wear on a simple sterling silver bracelet with my watch.........love it. =)
Thanks, but the one I am looking for is similiar style to a Dave Yurman open cuff, not so expensive it was aroud 100 us dollars. The end screwons had different interchangeable pieces you could buy like hearts, onyx. symbols, initials, ect. I just can't remember the name of the company who makes them.
John Medeiros...............a few of us on this site love his creations! He just came out with the interchangeable ends they create variety like Pandora. See my cuff below.

Thanks! I kinda wish I hadn't read this though. In a position now. I was planing on buying a gold bead around december when i get my 21st bonds money but now its much cheaper I want to get one now! I really don't know if I can afford it tho! Eeek
I have been such a good girl this summer...saving $ and fighting the urge to splurge! Well, ladies, this drought is going to come to an end. I am totally taking advantage of the free bracelet with purchase promotion in September at my favorite Pandora retailer. I have a list and I am going to get it all!
I sound like I am going to be a "Pandora Pig" but in reality, I am just getting 2 beads for myself (beige enamel vines and the citrine cabochon) and something in black and white for my mom's birthday bracelet.
My mom is turing 60 in September. To celebrate the milestone, I am throwing her a Pandora Party. I will provide the base bracelet and a couple of beads, and then I am asking her party pals to do the rest. If they bring a bead, she will have a complete bracelet by the end of the night.
Fun present? or dumb? Will this offend the guests? Let me know what you think!

I think that the idea for your mom's birthday is awesome, sixty is a big milestone and I would not mind bringing a bead to the party if she were my friend or family member- maybe they could pick out beads that reminded them of her or a time they shared with her.

As we get older wearable gifts are much better than clutter!!!!!!!! No one will be offended it is much like a baby shower or bridal registry. Spectacular idea! Very creative

It sounds like a fantastic idea!!! I'm sure she would treasure that bracelet...
givemegold, I think it is a WONDERFUL idea to throw a Pandora party for your Mom. 60 is a milestone birthday, and you have just let a lot of people off the hook. They won;t have to scratch their heads about what to buy as a gift for your Mom. Generally, by the time we are 60, we have pretty much everything you could think of. People could go together and buy her a special one if they didn;t want to spring for a bead by themselves - thinking of maybe some who wouldn't spend a lot normally.
I have a friend who organized such a party for a retiring colleague. Her colleague was thrilled with the bracelet and was touched by how much thought people put into the beads they chose. And almost everyone else was happy that the gift had been narrowed down for.
