Hi Nin, good to have another Pandoraholic around here!
Can't wait to see pics of your bracelets....my silver with aqua and green muranos is nearly full too, and I started in February....;)

Issie and Using_Daddy's_$$, thanks for the website tips.....will definitely add them to my favourites! I can't believe how many bracelets Denmark Beads have in the Sample Ideas! :cloud9:

I still haven't made my first Pandora purchase(s)---plural, important!

I'm kind of waiting as my birthday is coming up and hopefully I'll get some money to use towards it, but I also don't want to miss out on the breast cancer promotion and would love to pick up the pink BCA leather bracelet, the lucerne charm (in this article: http://multivu.prnewswire.com/mnr/pandora/46430/) and the breast cancer ribbon. That would make a beautiful, simple bracelet.

Otherwise, I want to get the silver bracelet (with the Pandora clasp), with the dolphin charm and the blue ribbon bead....to start! Then build from there.

Seems like a pretty heavy purchase if I buy all those at once, I'd qualify for the apron, maybe, if I buy this month! Haha.

I had heard that the dove/love bird bead was going to be retired, as well. It is a lovely bead...one of my favorites, actually. If you are on the fence or waiting to get it, I would jump before it is retired! The prices going up, sometimes, just at the hint of retiring. I wouldn't want your bracelet to be without it! I almost wish that I had more than one of that particular bead. It makes quite a statement on the bracelet. It is a bit bigger than other beads and the gold birds really stand out. Sometime, I wear it along on the leather cord or my Pandora necklace!

The bead that I have was a little too oxidized for my tastes when I purchased it, but with some polishing and wear, it has developed a great patina that I really love. The oxidized birds are more gray, than stark black.

Givemegold--I got the lovebird bead the other day for my 2tone. You were so right, it is lovely. My new fav. They only had 2 left, and I got it at regular price. Thanks

Ok, I am at the beginning of my pandora experience. Where would you suggest I start. Or more specifically with what?

Are you doing 2tone or mostly silver? If you are doing 2tone and if you can swing it, I would start with the 2tone bracelet because it you dont you will just end up grading later and you could have put that money toward the 2 tone from jump street. I would also start out with 2 clips and a bead.

If you can't get the really tiny ones, to save wrapping it round too many times, you can cut it and tie a small knot in it - that works too. The really small ones are best though!

I'm going to the mall tonight and I'll pick some up.....I wonder if these would work on the toggle bracelet as well as I'm not planning on filling it up :smile1:

Really good advice!! I ended up with a bunch of two tone beads and went back to buy my two tone bracelet after :push:

BUT now I do have two bracelets ;)

Hi, ladies. Well my birthday was last Friday. It was my 40th and I had a few beads on my wishlist. I'm so happy with what I got. I got the Dew Drops w/onyx & diamond (hubby), black wood bead, lucky clover/shamrock(dad), cupcake(2 best friends), witch, ghost, light blue swirl and candy stripe muranos(money from brother & wife and sister in laws). I am loving all me new beads and have been in a frenzy switching my bracelets around. I also saved some b'day money for when the Fall beads come out. I have quite the wishlist from that too. I will take pics soon and post all my new babies.
