Hello ladies! I have a small question about the clips.. Currently I have two (the cherries & lotus), so the two spots for clips on the bracelet are filled. Is it okay to use clips as regular beads? Or could that damage the bracelet? Hope that you understand what I'm talking about, can't find the word for the spots where you clip them on haha.

Hi Trinket, it's totally fine to use clips elsewhere on the bracelet. A lot of people use them at the end of the bracelet to keep unthreaded charms from falling off. I actually have three clips on my pic above. Though I wouldn't recommend the opposite *using a threaded charm in place of a clip*, as this can push against the threads and stress the bracelet.

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 :laugh: )

I would definitely say that they were a gift and wanted to know if they are genuine. I am sure stores don't like us shopping online, especially eBay, so may dismiss the charms as fake.

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

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 .

I use clips as regular beads all the time. I don't think they would damage the bracelet since they are no heavier than regular charms. I would like a bracelet of all smooth sphere clips alternating with a gold spacer, don't have it yet, but maybe one day! When I first started buying Pandora I was reluctant to get the clips since choices were a lot less than they are now but there are so many lovely ones now.

Yes that's fine! It won't damage the bracelet.

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!

Ditto, I did that from Perlen and they were different colours even thought they were meant to be the same. It was the pink looking glass muranos and one was pink with small triangle patterns and the other was lilacy pink with larger triangle patterns. I wasn't best pleased. I took them to a Pandora shop I normally shop at and they exchanged the lilac one for a pink one to match the other. They were great and didn't ask for the receipt, which was lucky because I got it online!

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 ;)
