~*~ The PANDORA thread! ~*~

[Aprilshack]

Since there are new Christmas & halloween charms coming out will the old ones get retired?
I think pandora retired a lot of jewelery yesterday, so a charm retirement may be coming?

Oh!! I'm so excited to see the red enamel hearts in Aus!! I can't wait to see the actual colour and if I like, buy to start my daughters Alice in Wonderland bracelet.

I am LOVING motherhood. The last 5 months have flown!!

 

[SydneyGirl]

That sounds like a great theme.....which other beads would you put on it?

 

[Issie]

Sure have, Issie, and that sleigh IS adorable, and the price looks good too. Have to have it for my first Pandora Christmas!

Yes, that one will be the start of my holiday bracelet, SydneyGirl, my addiction started in Sept of 2009.

In Montreal our promotion for the free pandora bracelet will start on the 23rd of this month. The sleigh will hopefully be available by then..... it would be the perfect time to pick up a few more...

I love the xmas sleigh! I don't know if I'll buy any halloween charms this year but they look so good!

I was in a Pandora store today and saw the pink leather bracelet (single not double) and the breast cancer locket charm. I only caught a glimpse but they look very nice.

Some of you helped me out before, but I have been playing with my bracelet.

I got my three white/gold lotus muranos today. I had full intention of returning them, but made the mistake of opening them and putting them on my bracelet just to see. They are lovely.

Wanted your input...Do they look nice enough/different enough to justify the cost of keeping?
Opinions please, my Pandora gals.

Pic 1: 14K whites w/ my pinks

Pic 2 : 14K whites w/ golden yellow

Pic 3: golden yellow w/gray stripe muranos ( my first attempt at the yellow-white combo and trying to find a suitible sub for the 14K muranos)

I am not 100% on the yellows either, but they are growing on me. They are new, so I may return.

So basically should I keep the 14K white muranos? or return and go for the more economical choice of the gray stripe muranos and just buy a couple more 14K beads (not muranos)?

Hi Julie
I love the 14k white muranos - they look gorgeous with the pink and the yellow muranos. Although, I also like the third option as well.

I just bought two of the 14k lotus muranos for my second bracelet and whilst I originally thought they were over-rated, I absolutely love them.

If it makes you happy to have them, Keep them but if you feel guilty about the cost, change them.

Did you see my bracelet in my picture - I was going to change my white muranos to the 14k white ones but went against that and started a new bracelet instead.

Thank you for posting the photos, conconkally. The witch is adorable! And given that my name is Wanda, you can imagine I want that one right away.

Julie, the white/gold muranos look stunning with the yellow beads. You have quite a bit of gold in your bracelet and they look really nice with it.

pic 1 is def my favourite!!! Keep the white 14ks definitely.

Personally, I am not a fan of the yellows..... I think maybe swap those out for another gold bead.
