It looks great, good to hear that it's more comfortable now.

Your bracelet is gorgeous and it sounds like the 18cm is the better size once it's full with charms.


thank you guys:smile1: I now have a full bracelet, a empty one(18cm) will start soon hopefully, and one with a couple of charms(it's 17cm) i will keep it clean and bare:D
btw,i find bracelet various regards to the stiffness, my old one is so stiff there isn't a soft side..new one is much more soft and flexiable(brand new),i dont like stiff...

Sounds like the old one really was a one off fault than, maybe now you can be less afraid of it happening again.

hello ladies, it's been a while! so I finally decided to get another bracelet that's 18, mine was 17 and when it's full it's difficult to be free to roll over my wrist bone. The 18cm is def better although I feel a little slightly bigger, but it's better than being too tight. I attached my most recently updated bracelet, I added a new charm the pink heart with gold in the middle and 2 spacers by the you and me charm. i use the heart clip here as a charm and the plain clip beside it to replace it for a better look. but i would like a better looking clip and i just don't know which one goes better, i don't think another round clip would look too good...anyway, thanks ladies for letting me share.:smile1:
Congrats! It is a beautifully completed bracelet.

Hello, your bracelet looks beautiful :smile1:. After my bracelet snapped and Pandora telling me it was a one off fault, I have been uncomfortable about wearing my bracelet. I have had the same concerns as you with regards sizing, despite the Pandora sa telling me that the bracelet was sized correctly. It was comfortable to wear, but I think I was paranoid that it would snap again due to it being snug to the wrist when it was full of charms. So I decided to exchange the bracelet and size up to a 19cm. I am now much happier and I am wearing my bracelet again :D xx
 
I might actually put it on a necklace now that you mention it Ardnas but I will probably wear it on my purple bracelet the most. I need to buy a decent chain for it. I have been wanting a chain from Pandora but always end up buying a bead instead lol. I am trying so hard to narrow my buying and just get what I know I love and am going to wear often. I am also like that with everything in my life, I hate things in my house that don't get used, or that are not organized just perfectly. I get rid of them lol. So my bracelets are the same, if they don't fit together just nicely and the way I want, I can't stand having them around all the time when I am looking at my collection. They distract me lol

Maybe..it's a shame tho, it was my first ever and i wanted it to be perfect:p or maybe i'm just a little silly:D

Congrats! It is a beautifully completed bracelet.

thank you Pandoraose! i hope you are doing well :smile1:

I completely understand you! it's normal to have a little worry. I think the best way is not to crowd the bracelet even when it's full and balance the weight of the charms a bit, that should help. and if one size bigger makes it comfortable to wear even it's a wee bit big, still go for the bigger one, can't stand having it stuck on my wrist bone haha, and hate to have to always manually moving it:D glad you are enjoying your bracelet again now, just have to forget about the old faulty one, don't let it spoil your love for your pandora, do you have a safety chain? I wonder if the safety is really "safe"? because the safey chain likes to twist around and it's annoying sometimes

Hello, I haven't got a safety chain yet. It will be my next big purchase/gift. I would love the two tone with hearts. I am not sure how safe they are? I totally agree with you about over crowding the bracelet. I have room for one more charm after the safety chain and then my bracelet is complete. I am going to go for a pendant charm I think xx :smile1:
 
Missydora - where are you nowadays? xx

hello:) im still here, sorry ladies ive gone awol, wish I could put more input on this thread I only get to read after end of my day because its so fast moving on this thread that by the time ive read everything i feel im far behind to make comments on everyones lovely bracelet. Theres been so many too. Work has completely overtaken my life at the moment, so many deadlines and there's severe understaffing. The kids and hubby have been rather neglected as well as my beloved Pandora!! everything im passionate about has taken a back seat. To update I have bought 4 charms from the Republic of Jewels sale, Saturn ring, "He loves me" two tone flower with diamond, big heart gold spacer and two tone ring rope charm. I will post photos as is my day off and ive decided I'm not doing anything well anything work related im on strike!!.

Oh man, I love that safety chain but it's so expensive! In my case, I've decided that the safety chain is going to be the last purchase to finish off my bracelets when they eventually fill up. The sole purpose of the safety chain for me is not to prevent accidents (which I feel aren't really going to happen with the clasp; if anything I'm worried about the snake chain itself) but rather to hide the threads at the end. I don't want to thread a charm onto the stopped end because that would make the two uneven (one with a charm, one without) so a safety chain would do the trick. Am I the only one who thinks like this? :whistle:

That's the main reason I have safety chains :)
 
Here's my updated bracelets, the pink one represents my family and the two tone is my favourite just rearranged to accommodate some new charms :smile1:
