I didn't know that it was known outside of Holland, but I'm amazed of how many countries know Sinterklaas. I just Googled it, Austria, Germany, Belgium, Hungary, Czech Republic, Switzerland. And the most funny thing I found out is that in Suriname they have a black Sinterklaas and white Pieten. Isn't that great? So maybe there's a bigger market for a mijter charm than I thought? I think it's so great that you know something about this. May I ask how come?

For the person asking about buying a leather bracelet vs. buying another charm, I would go for the charm! I never buy Pandora unless it is promotion time or I am getting it on sale. I actually don't mind waiting for promotion as then I have months to think about what I really want and often my list changes with time, this way I am only buying full-price charms I've wanted a long time and will be happy with and I'm getting a free bracelet with it. I would not want to buy any bracelet when they are offered free with purchase so often. Leather bracelet promo for US is Oct 23-26 according to charmsaddict ;-)

I wasn't the one asking....but agree with you on getting a charm and saving bracelets for promos! And I didn't realize they were doing another leather promo in October! I may have to take advantage of that If I don't go too crazy on the silver bracelet promo!

I took a religious studies course in university and I actually did a long piece on "Christmas" around the world. So I remembered that hat because it was a key point on the slight symbolic variations. I love learning about other countries, I find it really fun!


I think there are a lot of Pandora collectors who would love to have Christmas pieces from all around the world. But that is the thing about new Pandora charms is that I find they are not doing it for the collectors and old clientele. They are doing the mass market thing now and so maybe I am just dreaming lol

Hi All,

Been meaning to post for ages but had v little spare time of late, and come eves I am so tired! We are expecting our second boy. Anyway, there have been some updates to my Pandora collection and whilst I can't share pics of all now as currently away, here is the most recent; my two one is now on a two tone bracelet. I have wanted to do this for ages and finally the time was right andI took the plunge! I am so glad I did - I love seeing that bit of gold at the back of my wrist. I rearranged the charms too and am really happy with this bracelet now and wearing it a lot more, though I really want a safety chain now as paranoid about it falling off. I will wait and save up for the 14K one. Then the bracelet will be complete.

Anyhow, here are the pics...
I wish I could take a decent wristshot but I haven't managed this yet :rolleyes:

Hmm, have the uploading limits been changed? I used to be able to take pics on my ipad and post no problem - now I can't. I am having to resize the pics and then they lose their quality and become all grainy. How does everyone else take their pics to post?

It's beautiful i like all your charms...I will start a new charm pandora this time will be be all silver:-)

Thanks Apelila :smile1:. I love what you have done with your two tone so far too. Now that I moved the two tone charms to the gold barrel clasp bracelet, I started an all silver too! I got given a bunch of silver charms for my b-day recently and put them on my original silver bracelet. The charms are meaningful as opposed to abstract like on my other bracelets and I love the result! I will post pics when back home.

I have to export my pics from Picasa to make them 1500x1500 and they don't seem to lose quality. Picasa is free from google to download and it has a lot of great features.
