Need some advice ladies. Mum has given me 200 bucks and I want some Pandora. I luv the disney charms and like new essence beads. I would ideally like to start a Pandora bracelet but feel would take me forever to fill it up...I also have a pandora bangle which I could start putting new charms. Dilemna

The Disney charms skew a bit bigger than most it might fill up faster than you think

That's what a lot of us think before we start... and then we end up with a full bracelet in two months. :giggles:

Lol, this is too true! Painful on the wallet, but it's so easy to become addicted

I received my bracelet as a gift last summer, and this Christmas, I received my first charm and within a short span, received several more! [Didn't realize how heavy this bracelet gets as you fill it up, though!]

We all tend to fill our bracelets way ahead of schedule :) Important thing is to buy charms you love and make you smile everytime you look at your bracelet/bangle...

Idk how I would go with a couple of charms at first. Does the bracelet look silly not full.

I don't think you need to fill it, they look lovely with only a few charms on, especially the bangle. I wear my bangke with two clips and one charm in between or without any.

I originally started with one bracelet but now I have several. I prefer the look of less charms and don't plan to add anymore, some have 2 clips and 3 charms, some more. I prefer to start another colour or theme than add more.

If you browse through this thread you'll see lots of example like my blue Oxy bracelet below.

Is the promotion still on for you? Don't forget you'll get a free bracelet if it is

I don't like the bracelet full. I like it around 2/3 full... So it differs from person to person. Also, it's really heavy with a full bracelet

Yes a good point, totally agree, they are heavy when completely full, something else to consider. We all wear them differently, that's the great thing about Pandora, there are so many different looks.

And my purple one, the butterfly has quite a lot of purple, the colour just hadn't picked up. There's also Amethyst in the clips. I usually just wear the heart clasp bracelet on its own now and have added this arrangement to another bracelet.

I tend to wear them stacked with other bracelets, your Essence bracelet would look lovely with anything :D

If you intend to wear the bracelet with only a few charms, i would recommend the older bracelet with two clips and some charms in between, they look good! or the new moments thread less bracelet with at-least one clip at the end to prevent all the charms from sliding off when opened.

With the current promotion, the free bracelet that i got was the new moments thread less one and will be wearing a single charm on it. I have another bracelet that is full and that i love.

A bracelet with a few charms looks anything but silly :smile1:

I agree...I only wear my charm bracelet on special occasions, because it's too heavy and frankly, loud [bangs on everything!] for daily use. I decided against filling mine completely, because of the weight factor. I still have a few charms [obviously] on my wish list, but I'm in no rush to acquire those, because I want them to be marked by special occasions, etc.

Currently, I wear my Pandora silver bangle daily, with only one charm on it, and it's so lightweight, that I don't even notice it's there! I change the charm I feature regularly, depending on the theme I want as a daily reminder- currently, I'm wearing 'apple of my eye', as a reminder to be healthy and stay on track fitness wise!
As a bonus, the bangle looks great stacked with other bracelets- I wear it with my Tiffany silver bead bracelet daily, and they compliment each other nicely.

I also want to share the one and only ring I own by Pandora- got this beauty for my birthday, and it's special because not only does it have 7 leaves, and 7 is my favorite/lucky number, but I also adore the subtle two-tone, and the laurel leaf design is so feminine. Pandora jewelry is such great quality- I never take this ring off, yet it has no wear & tear.

Looks great SunshineS, I have the same Tiffany bracelet and agree it stacks beautifully with Pandora. I've the smaller beaded one too, they both look great. I also add my Essence bracelet with one charm. The pearl is my favourite, I don't wear the Essence with more than one charm, I just prefer it that way.

Lovely idea picking a special charm for the day :D
