This is some great advice! I'll try cleaning my bracelets like this...hopefully this will get my charms all looking the same. You can see a difference between the older ones and the new ones and it's been bugging me

Thanks! Eventually all charms will start to show signs of wear with the constant rubbing against one another, etc. but that doesn't mean they can't be bright and shiny!

Has your Perlen charms still not come? Mine hasn't. I just have a feeling it won't! It's probably lost in the post now. I've never had to wait this long. It's been a week since I got their email to say it's in the post, and 1 and a half week since I ordered it. Not very happy. It has never taken more than 4 days.

Your stalking the postman too!!:D. I think perlen will be busy because they got some new valentine collection charms out and by the looks of it, they've been selling like hot cakes since a lot are of stock. It will get to you via snail :D

When it took you 11 days for your Perlen to come had you opted for the free post? I know my friend's took that amount of time cos she went for the tracking and paid more.

I took a few close up pics of my new bead that I am in love with, the Mr. and Mrs. that my husband bought be for V day. I love it but its too bad you can't really have 2 of these beads. Would be kinda funny lol

Aww Mr&Mrs bead is very cute your hubby is very thoughtful:smile1: regarding you finishing your two tone or creating a bling sparkly bracelet. I can only say from my experience with the two tones that its very addictive! For along time all I wanted was two tones they are so versatile looks nice with or without muranoes can mix with silver, solid gold or gold spacers can achieve many looks. Is got to the point where because Pandora don't really have a lot of new two tones in their new collections and I've collected a lot of the old ones already I've run out of choice!. So I'm contemplating doing a sparkly pave type bracelet but not sure as it will be a expensive venture we will see:smile1: You have so many lovely beads all nice and shiny I like your pink opal dangly.

I had mine on free post . the fastest I've had them deliver is 4 days but the average is about 5/6 days. I would give them 12 days Max maybe they put it on 2nd class post to save on money

Few years back I tried the bicarbonate of soda in foil tray with warm water and salt. OMG it definatley works like too well! Would never do it again the charms that were oxidised the bi carb took all that off! Was mortified my charms was definatley nice sparkly and shiny though. The oxidisation on my queen bee and detailed flowered charms did eventually come back but of was a scary experience.

Although I'm in the US so perlen takes longer, they seem to be taking longer than usual. My first thought was exactly that, the new collection sells fast so they probably have a bunch of orders. I'm still waiting on four separate orders from them. Oh well, gives my life a lil excitement!

By the sounds of it, it does sound like it could be taking longer than usual for whatever reason. The previous order before my last one which still hasn't come, was only a few days before, and that came in 4 days. Hopefully it's just one of them things.

I love the look when my bracelet is all clean and shiny but it takes ages to clean with the Connoisseurs cloth and my hand aches!

Are you like me try and look at things on the optimistic side :). when my order from perlen took11 days it was when they had just announced they lost there contract with pandora and that they would only have whats left and on back orders so then everyone ordered like crazy so I guess thats why it took so long.

I'm still waiting for my gold clasp bracelet for this one. I'm thinking since most of the stuff on here reminds me of spring, I think I'll get the cherry blossom muranos to finish this. Oh and I put a bid on the retired acorn charm on ebay, 30 minutes left!!
