Hello ladies :) I am returning to my Pandora addiction! I haven't been on here for months since I started collecting Trollbeads. I'm happy to see some of the same friendly ladies still going strong, your collections must have blossomed in the last year! I can't wait to see, I will have to do a thread review marathon soon!
I sold off 3 bracelets that just weren't making me happy and now only have my first 2 bracelets, which are loaded with sentimental value. I'm going to start a third again with the new Wild Hearts muranos and ruby facets as the main colors, and I have a few others in mind...Yay! So excited!
What beads is everyone in love with at the moment?? Please fill me in :)

Just a couple of days ago was wondering where you were, you were MIA :smile1: Do share your trollbeads!
 
Who was i kidding, not only did i get the two but picked up a third one as well! Happy New Year Ladies!!!
Shows us some pics when you get them :smile1: going to look amazing on your two tone! It's so hard to find all the older Pandora two tones prefer them much more than alot of the newer ones.
Your daisy dangle, I would like one for my bangle. It's hard to find them now :(
I have a cleaning question regarding my silver charms.

I plan to use a silver polishing cloth and also some dish soap and warm water to clean them.

My question is:

Should I polish and then wash in soapy water, or wash then polish?

Thanks!

I like to wash mine in very diluted detergent or carex anti bacterial hand wash the baby blue version. It's not conventional :laugh: but works for me. Then I dry them with micro fibre cloth. The other way I use is polish with Pandora cloth then go over with micro fibre cloth to get rid of the black stuff left on the bracelet from the polishing cloth.

Welcome back my friend! I am into rose gold them recently.

I will post pics in a day or two Missydora, still playing my with bracelet, moving charms around, and waiting for a nice sunny day to take a pic. I am glad i got the charms.:D And a huge thank you to everyone who said to go get them! You are right, they don't make them like these anymore.
 
Posting my newest Pandora that I started related to my volunteer work. I foster dogs for a National Rescue organization. I typically keep only one dog for several weeks or sometimes months until they are healthy, spayed/neutered, and ready for a forever family. As you might imagine - I often become very attached to them. I am starting this bangle as a memory piece and will purchase a charm/bead for certain dogs that take a piece of my heart along with them. I expect to choose one that reminds me of their personality or a dog or heart charm. If I start getting a lot - I'll probably switch them over to a ss bracelet rather than the bangle.

This is my updated pandora bracelet :smile1: As you can see I'm all about the symmetrical look minus the last purple charm which I've added in there so the other charms don't fall off each time I take it on or off.

:flowers:

I know what you mean Agpthng, I'm just starting and I'm struggling to get the right look. I love the Murano spacers though and am waiting for my first two to arrive. I think they will make a lot of difference to mine as it doesn't just add colour but size.They are quite a bit bigger and i think different sizes and textures make a lot of difference, based on the ones I've been admiring

I'm certainly not the best person to be giving advise, so feel free to just ignore me :flowers: but I think you have some gorgeous beads and a few Murano ones would add a variation to the size as well as give colour. I just adore your Grandmother charm. :drool:

Thank you Mulberrygal - Any advice and input is helpful. Love my Grandmother charm, we became grandparents for the first time in August to a little girl so I got that charm and 2 pink spacers for each side.

I think that is so neat! That is why I really love Pandora - sure there is a lot of beautiful jewelry out there - and we've probably all been given a piece for a special occasion...but Pandora can represent so many sweet moments. When I look at mine it brings up memory after memory...My kids are in college and no spouses on the horizon so I expect the grandmother dangle will be extinct by the time I'm qualified to wear it!!!
