Thanks for your answer.I think I will buy silicone based clips eventually.So I was wondering if it is okay to use those silicone inserts with regular clips on threadless bracelet for now.Maybe someone else can help me too.

According to MoraPandora, you can!
"If you don’t like any of the silicone designs that Pandora have done so far, you can always go the traditional route and use a pair of regular Pandora clips with rubber inserts."

Here are two helpful posts by MoraPandora on the topic:

What about adding some pearl to your bracelet? These are two charms that I have and really love...

I also found a couple of pictures that could inspire you...

Thanks Emibella, some great ideas here. I especially love one black and one white clip and the others alternating. I'm not so keen on the symmetrical look anymore and this gives me scope for using the pairs I've bought differently :tup:

You're a naughty little enabler though! I need more charms now!

I have a question about smoooth silver chain bracelet.Can you use silicone clips on it?I know there are some silicone based clips already but I don't have those.Silicone clips were made for bangles.So it's probably okay to use on smooth silver bracelet.Is there any chances of damage to smooth bracelet.Can anyone answer this please?

I purchased my smooth bracelet to do just that and have always worn it with c silicon under my 2 clips, without any damage. It's far more adaptable as you can place clips where best suits. I really love the bracelet, it's also a little stiffer, a cross between the look of a bracelet & bangle .....................however I was told in store that you shouldn't :amazed:

Personally I can't see the difference, silicon is silicon and there isn't enough choice of the lined clips. I think the store gave me that advice as they didn't want to give me anymore free silicon clips or wanted me to buy more charms :giggle:

I'd be very interested to know what anyone else has been told on this.

Pretty sure regular clips with rubber inserts are fine on a threadless bracelet (see my previous post on the subject). Also, I've been toying with the idea of getting a threadless bracelet. How do you like yours Mulberrygal? Would you share a picture? :smile:

I work in a store that sells Pandora, and we've never been told not to use them. The silicone inserts were meant for the bangles and leather bracelets, but you can use them on the smooth bracelets. We also use them on the regular bracelets when we move the clips off the threads and still want them to stay in place.

That's really good to know Toto Too. I thought it sounded ridiculous when the SA said it but she was quite adamant the silicon inserts were only for the bangles and leather bracelets and wouldn't give me any :amazed:
I took no notice anyway and have had no probs. I just went in another store wearing my leather bracelet and got a couple :biggrin:

I really like the smooth bracelet, it seems a little stiffer and I prefer the look and comfort of it to a bangle. I only usually wear it with one or three charms and two clips. I will post some pics tomorrow, too dark now.

I'm just getting started on my "monochrome" bracelet :drinks:

Thank you for your input.This is very helpful now I feel very satisfied.I love my smooth chain bracelet.It looks very nice even without any charms.I can now use my c shaped silicone inserts under my regular clips without any worry.

Glad you got your answer! It was a collective effort :smile: That's one of the reasons I like this thread. Now, please share a picture of your bracelet with us, we can't get enough!
 
Update on my current bracelet. [emoji4]View attachment 3576905

It's gorgeous!

Which clips would you recommend for this Murano?

View attachment 3576906

I would like suggestions for two different kinds, as I don't care for symmetry and like all my clips/charms to be different.

Well, certainly nothing too flashy or with cz, maybe one of these... I have all these clips except the last one.

@iVALANI @Maxt I've come to realize I've been more of a collector/hoarder lately more than one who regularly wears their Pandora pieces. With the holidays now over, I've reassessed my Pandora collection and come to realize I now own 16 Pandora bracelets. Most of them are indeed 50% full or more, including three full 2-tone bracelets. Now that I think about it, my paranoia comes more from how I've come to realize how much was invested into my collection from gifts and myself. :shocked::smile:

Nice to see the thread is still very active and with new faces/names!

Omg Leslie, 16! That's great! Never let the thought of the money invested in them be a cause of anxiety or paranoia, that money was well spent on something that makes you happy.
My collection at the moment includes 2 moments bracelets (one regular and one oxy), 1 bangle, 1 essence bracelet, 1 leather bracelet and 1 cord bracelet. That's it.
I definitely need one more bangle and one more essence, those are my priorities. We always have a free bracelet promo here in May so I'll probably wait for that promo before I get a new bracelet. However, I doubt that I'll ever get to the point where I'll arrange everything on one bracelet and just leave it like that. New charms keep being released and I feel I could never be 100% happy with any combination I create, I would always need to rearrange or move something. That's why I feel that having only one or two bracelets is enough for me since I keep changing the combinations and rearranging charms every day.

Anyway, this is what I'm wearing today. Pic quality is poor, I took it with my phone.
