I wish someone had told me about the varying sizes in murano beads before I bought mine! I ordered them online in my ignorance and, although the difference isn't huge, one is certainly bigger than the other. It's not really that noticeable but it still drives me crazy because I know its there!

so this is what I am building towards. I already have some of these charms. it might change, but this is what i was playing around with on the bracelet builder. i couldn't find the dreamer clips but that its what i am going to get as my safety chain!
That's gorgeous! I have the dreamer clips. I've noticed that not many people have it, but I LOVE it
I know the feeling when I first started with muranoes I never bothered to check as I thought they were pretty much the same but how wrong was I. One of them was square! And when I went to change it sales assistant tried to convince me to keep it saying it was unique but I just couldn't as it was annoying as it wasn't sitting on my wrist properly. I've noticed especially with the transparent type pink with flower murano they can be either have dark peachy hue or dusty pink. I wanted all my pinks to have dusty pink tones I was a pain but then these aren't cheap so I don't think I'm being really bad being picky.

My computer has been so slow loading pics just noticed yours. Wow how striking, oxy and gold I bet it' will look amazing in real life such a strong contrast it's so edgy looking
Can you imagine? It must take ages to figure out which ones to wear. Those are serious collectors.I know of ladies who have over 40 full bracelets!! :o
I wouldn't be surprised to know one day she has 365 Pandora braclets so that she can wear a different one every single day. I guess the investment of the 40 bracelets could buy a nice car.
Omg they must have a bottomless purse!!!. It must be nice to be in a position to be able to buy whatever charms they want and whenever.
I know! I don't think I could go that far even if I could afford it!
Oh, very serious. Literally multiples of every bead. It must be fun to go into a shop and design a whole bracelet.
I started my first bracelet in September 2008. I just happened into a jewelry store with my daughter while we were on a home tour and wondered why it was such a mad house. All these women were lining up to get the September promotion. I had never really noticed Pandora so checked it out and was immediately smitten. I went back the next day only to find the promotion overbut the nice saleslady told me another store had theirs on for an extra day so I rushed over and got my first one.
I have been very lucky in collecting. My husband didn't figure it out for a while but I timed our trips to Florida to coincide with US promotions so I could get both! I got my two tone dragonfly in Honduras. I bought about 3 since they were US pricing (cheaper than Canada) and then saw the dragonfly. He sold it to me for $100!! Here in Canada it is 205.00.
Afterwards, I thought OMG!! was I just in a totally fake Pandora store and got screwed?! I worried so much when I got home I took it to my Pandora store here and they said what's the problem it's fine. I didn't say why because I didn't want to get the guy in trouble but if you are ever in Roatan check out the Pandora store!
It's crazy to see that pandora can attracted a lot of different people, it's almost universal, it's fun to purchase pandora when you go on trip, it can just add a lot more meanings and sentimental at the charm.

really nice looking bracelet, like someone said before the oxy and the gold looks very good together, i was building a bracelet with silver and blue stone and want to add a gold charm with blue stone like a center pieces but it was looking not good at all, not all the safety chain are there i tough.
really love the style of your bracelet, will love to seeing in real life
i have maybe a silly question, but girls and boy now, what are you thinking of someone going into a shop to ask if a charm are real pandora?
i'm feeling like it mustn't be done, i'm feeling bad to ask,
and if you think it's ok, what do you says? you just ask? is it their jobs or no?
because i make an order on e-bay and i was asking myself if i get some doubts when i received them if i can go to a shop,
thx in advance(and sorry for my bad english, i'm sure, i make some mistakes in this post, or maybe a lot too
)

Yes you can do that! You could just say they were a gift and would like to know if they are real.

I am so excited to build it! I will post pics as I build itt.

I second daisy w I think you should pretend u got as a gift it's naughty but at least it will put your mind at rest. My hubby bought me a £100 bead from a concept store it had a stamp "LE" had the "A" missing...? I was like has hubby bought me a fake?.. He produced a receipt I was rather sheepish to question him. But I took it back to shop who said they must have not stamped it properly and exchanged it thank goodness .
