You are an artist Missydora. Every time you show your bracelets - even though I know them really well coz I also like looking at them - I mean their pictures, they always look creative and new each time I see them again. BTW, it is so nice to see you again here in the blog. ;)

Good Morning Pandorarose :) Thanks for the compliments and liking the creativity in which I'm kind of trying to highlight the beauty of these charms the best I can with what ive got. Especially since I dont have many new charms most are retired. I hope i have succeeded in showing that the older charms can still be as appealing as the new ones, and also can work in harmony when mixing with the new ones :) im sorry for my bad grammar, you can tell ive not been on hear a long time I can't write!!
 
I am creating this look, I just need one more ring wich I just bought. Just waiting on delivery. I will be using my double diva clips instead.





really good idea

thank you gabby:) I see yours are comming along very nicely too, love the gold and oxy you have got going. I like how by having 3 different bracelets you achieve 3 different looks with the beads you have. Your so smart and organised :)
thank you so much :) i will have to post some new pics with new charms
 
I haven't been on here in awhile (been chasing my diaper bag obsession), but between Mother's Day, wedding anniversary, and my birthday I got a lot of new additions :)

I love the cherry blossom clips..those and winter wisp are my favorite new ones. Winter wisp wasn't even on my wish list but I got light as a feather recently as well and the sales girl put winter wisp on my bracelet to show how it balances it out and I loved it!View attachment 2678496

Love the oxi bracelet and the cherry clips are so lovely.

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:

love your creations.
 
ladies ladies, have a look at my bracelet on my wrist, does it look too big to you? i increased a size to 18cm and i do feel it's a little big, it doesn't come off my hand or anything but does it look fine being this low on your hand? seems like im a half size for wrist as well?!?!:p i mean i've never worn a bracelet this loose, but the 17cm is too small with all those charms:thinkin:

Thanks lucky:) im thinking oxy bracelet, pink and gold for the next one. Im thinking the contrast will be amazing.
I think that will look really awesome. I recently combined some pink muranos on an oxy bracelet and it looks really nice. The black and pink is a great contrast and the oxy just makes the pink pop out wonderfully. Here is the pic. Maybe you saw it a few days back when I first posted it. Gold however would look stunning and give an even higher contrast interest than silver or two tone can do.

I think it looks ok, maybe slightly big, but I don't like my bracelets to be loose. But if the 17cm was too small, then this is the only option. Maybe you'll find the 18cm more comfortable as you get used to it?

you have the same problem as me !!. we ideally could do with 17.5cm. I started with a 18cm snake chain many moons ago it was fine if I had it full with 5 muranoes as well as the silver charms. But would hang too loosely if it was just charms no muranoes. So I got the 17cm chain aswell it is fine for me with just charms no muranoes with it almost full with just a bit of space enough for it to jiggle but the problem is i have to have certain charms and spacers organised in a particular way for it to fit comfortably, but that for me is too restricting in design terms as I dont want charms put in that way just so it feels comfortable. So then came the bangle answer to my prayers?? freedom to do what I like, place the clips where I want. On a bangle max for me is 4 muraones and some charms. However with all charms and no muranoes, can have it almost practically full up with about 1cm space is fine for me. The bangle how I wear it is not for everyone I pre warn as some ladies will find it uncomfortable but cos I have narrow wrist the rigid roundness of the bangle with charms dont rub on my wrist as I have enough clearance space for it. Hope this helps:) sorry its long :(

Yes thats what I was thinking the effect you have on this bracelet is what im wanting to create :) Ive been doing a lot harmonious colour schemes of lately and I think having contrast colours would switch up the look and I would only need to buy a oxy chain to achieve it. Thanks for posting this inspiration in real life for me:) it really helps.
 
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
That's good news. Our bracelets are for us to enjoy and not just to sit in the jewellery box and admire. I understand that some of us can't wear our bracelet during the day due to our job roles or it being impractical, but we should enjoy it as much as we can. I always admire other peoples when they are wearing them and always sneak a peak at what charms they have on.
 
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:
Most people when they buy their bracelets to start of with are quite happy with a few charms on their bracelets, then they get more and more charms. They say that they are not bothered about a safety chain and keep their bracelet like that for a while. Eventually they succumb to the advances of a safety chain, for it completes the look and covers the threads which look bare when you have a full bracelet of charms. They then say this is the best thing they have bought to finish off their bracelets. I have no doubt you will love that little bit of chain that dangles down your wrist.x

Your bangles are so gorgeous and just the way I would do them too! I too have finally got the gold, pink cz flower charm! So happy and I love it. I love your new charms and especially the gold spacer and big Saturn charm.


It's good to hear from you again. Thought you did a disappearing trick there haha!
