Hi Jasmine_88
They're selling them at the Silvermoon Stores $39NZ but are limited. Silvermoon is in all the shopping malls in Christchurch. Failing that get them to go to Beads Unlimited upstairs at the Arts Centre in the central city, they also have them.

There's a pic of the bead on their website www.beadzunlimited.com.

I'll post a pic of my bracelet when I'm allowed :smile1:
 
Looking at the new catalogue, a fair few beads have gone & they would have to be the gold/silver 2 tone one i like! I also noticed in the catalogue on the page they advertise the website/pandora club, there is a little section that says benefits, promotions, so maybe they have listened to a lot of people who wanted more promotions?

I know, I've been on E-bay for a week or so now trying to get good deals on some of the newly retired beads....Even some of the E-bay sellers have increased their prices as of today :tdown:

Husband noticed in the catalogue that it is mostly odd shaped beads in there rather than say the animals or the house, cake, object etc. which is a pity as i would of thought people would of preferred an animal/object shape rather than an odd shape.

I'm hoping they will release some new "object" shaped beads soon!
 
I was a very naughty Pandora shopper this week. I got the new hypnotize clips-onyx and iolite. The Show Stopper bead and Day dreamer bead in the clear cz. Pretty Posies silver bead. I will take pics of my new arrangement on my bracelet and post later.
 
Got 2 beads as a random pressie yesterday from hubby... the love birds and the star / flower 2 tone with the diamonds (i think its called flower power, but im really not sure) ... very spoilt!!

First bracelet is almost finshed... little does he know that im planning a second :)

Oh yay!
I have been dying to see the clips!
 
so I bought my first pandora bracelet yesterday in Toronto!!!!! The pandora store didnt have the stiletto charm in stock so I went to the jewellery store in the Eaton centre that sells charms and found it...I got the bracelet with the lobster clasp though because for me it's much easier to put on than the other clasp that destroys my nails...I tried them on again yesterday and completely destroyed my thumb nail getting that clip open :( sad but I do like the look of the lobster clasp right now that my bracelet is pretty empty...

Now question...

Would it look weird if I bought clips to put over the little threads before filling the bracelet further? I don't know if that would work though because I don't know if the clips fit tight over the threading? I only plan to buy beads to commemorate special events (the stiletto being my souvenier for being in fashion week)...so the bracelet will be slow building, but the charm is driving me crazy because it keeps getting stuck on the one thread and I'm afraid of either it breaking or it wearing the threading out because I keep having to unscrew it. So my thinking was to go buy a couple of clips to clip over the threading so the bead can't move onto the threading while the bracelet is fairly empty, but I don't know if that would look weird with one bead and two clips?
 
The one bead two clips looks good.
I have seen a lot of people start it that way.

If you don't do clips, then it will forever twist here and there.

They have a few clips that look like beads, like the new ones.

Good luck trying to decide!

Hi Ladies,

I'm considering buying the oxidized bracelet with the gold clasp. I have a SS/Gold and just a SS one already. I was wondering if there is alot of fading with this oneand don't plan to use it until I have enough beads to fill it..... I'm going for a diamond/2 toned/black themed one this time.....

I am on my second oxidized with SS clasp. I like the dark dark oxidized. Some collectors like the gradual fade. It reminds me of LV collectors and their vachetta prefernces most like a honey color (patina) and some want the light color to last forever LOL!!!

Cant wait for the pic's :graucho:. I saw the new Fall beads IRL Thursday. I am dying and plotting. LOL

I think when you start clips should be purchased early on.

thanks!! I think that is what I will do because it drove me crazy all day...and it only ever got stuck on the one thread (probably the way I hold my arm) so that's why I'm worried about it wearing the threading out! I just don't know which clips to buy now!
 
Ah! I was looking for that "Show us your Pandora Creations" thread with no luck.
Thanks for posting.:smile1:
Last night a friend pointed out the FBook group. I almost died looking through everyone's creations!:nuts: The maddness! LOL And I love it!

Currently contemplating green Muranos. Eep.

Thats sooo much!! My friends said they will be doing a fair bit of shopping in Christchurch so fingers crossed they get me one! I'll email them the details now :D Can't wait to see a pic of your bracelet too. I'll keep an eye out for it. ;)
 
I am going to be in the area of a Pandora store later today and I absolutely love the leather double wrap bracelets! I just am wondering if they'll fit my wrist! I have a larger wrist bone that's just slightly under 7" and by looking at the measurements online, I'm not sure it'll work for me :(. I hope it does or else that would be such a bummer. I'd like to get a few of the leather ones and layer them.
