I was wondering where you were Mulberrygal... Now I know... designing your bracelet! :p

I must say it's a gorgeous one at that! I like your black and white daisy clips. And the mystic flowers is one of my fave charm. I find your creation very well composed, with greats taste. Classic yet with a modern twist with the monochromatic look. And I really like the full look. Not too much at all. How do find wearing it like that so far?

Which charms did you end up getting?

You inspire me to create a black and white themed bracelet one day... :smile:

And I'm glad you enjoyed my pictures. I always like to look at everyone's creations, so it's a nice compliment that you liked mine.

Oh so true, there's been no time for chatting, I only finished it yesterday! I wore it for the first time today, I'm still feeling a full bracelet looks a little bulky and I love to stack :confused1: I added my essence bracelet with a single pearl in the end, just had too :rolleyes: I will have to try it out with some other bracelets but I wouldn't want to wear it with more than one.

I also work in an office and it's not that comfy on the desk..............I will have to get a specially designed mouse mat

I purchased the two black & white flower charms which I absolutely love, one mystic flowers and the black flower clip.Glad I managed to catch the end of the sale with 3 at half price.

They were my first sale purchases.................Our winter sale in the UK has been very disappointing, hardly any charms :crybaby:

I may remove the two charms if I want a change and free it up a bit. They fit in well though with the flower/blossom theme. Queen Bee must stay, love it on here, she's found a home, the pink butterflies must stay too, I really like just a touch of pink to it.

The charms you got are very pretty! You're lucky to have got them on sale. There is none right now here in canada at the moment. I'm sure the full bracelet doesn't look bulky on you. I think this calls for an action shot! :p

As for comfort, it obviously depends on how you feel. I work at an office too, so at the beginning, I used to flip my bracelet to find a more comfy position when taking notes or typing on the keyboard. But just got use to it over time and I don't even notice anymore...

On a side note, I went to my Pandora store today. I wanted to change my oval lights and the radiant splendor for a different look, with a little less cz. But didn't find anything I really liked and they didn't have the charming owls in stock. It's getting harder and harder to find charms without lots of cz or nice two tones that are not heart shaped.

Anyway, after seeing your bracelet, you inspired me to try on the mystic floral clip and couldn't take them off. :amuse: So I left with two new clips and no charms... Here is a picture of how they look. But now I find I want to redesign the whole bracelet. It seems there's no end to this Pandora hobby/addiction... :sad: But very happy with my new finds!

Luckily I haven't picked it up yet. I haven't heard from the store so it's not even on the way as far as I know. I'll just have to cancel it if it comes.

I thought you already received it. I use the Pandora app to keep track of my charms. It's also convenient when you're in store and want to see if something you want will match or not of if it's too similar. :smile:

It's still in transit from another store but I haven't heard anything. I'm hoping it doesn't show up since I don't want it now. I didn't know they had an app. Thanks for the tip! I'll check it out.
 
More eye candy, as we can have a better look at the Spring release! There's lot of cz... but some pretty charms too. I especially like the lucky day dangle and the classic two tone heart clip. :smile: What do you guys think?

I'm trying to resist getting the Poetic Blooms bracelet coming out. I know shouldn't feel obligated to buy every different clasp style Pandora comes out with. Lol. I did skip out on the Starry Sky clasp bracelet because it reminded me too much of the Disney Mickey clasp bracelet I already had. I never realized I had it in me to disable myself and not get something.

I'm actually waiting for the next promo so I can stock up on a few Beauty and the Beast charms for the new Shimmering Rose bangle coming out. I actually don't care for the look of the bangle, but the Disney freak in me is telling me I NEED this.

I'll try to take some pics of my other bracelets, but the lighting already sucks by the time I come home from work.

This looks absolutely gorgeous, the floral clips look brilliant the way you have arranged. I really love the oval lights charms, its one of my favorite charms, don't think I'd ever take them off :heart: I love the colour they bring, I have pink, blue & purple :facepalm: the purple is my favourite.

I will see what I can do with an action photo, a full bracelet does create a very different look when worn and I still prefer a little space between charms to allow the charms to move about. I always admire Ivalani's creations they look stunning.

There seems to be just one stockist left with a few decent sale charms. It was pure luck they happened to have a few black themed charms ;) I do love a bargain..................you usually do far better than UK on offers though. Our promotion at the moment is a free small Valentines Heart jewellery box with a £125 spend. It's a very poor design, the zip gets stuck in the heart indentation :tdown: Pandora would do better to offer a free charm as the jewellery boxes just end up on EBay!
 
DH had bought me another charm. He said he saw it and it looked great. I've re-organised the charms and can't stop staring at my hand eye candy!!

Mulberrygal, I totally agree the promotions in the U.K. have sucked especially for the past few years. I noticed the jewellery box sells for £10 on authorised pandora websites like johngreed jewellery. Seems like such a rip off when you think you're only getting something worth a tennerIMG_2583.JPG

Looks very pretty Guccilover :heart:
I had no idea John Greed were selling the jewellery boxes :lol: I bet they had too many and couldn't get rid of them.
£125 is a lot to spend for a gift that's worth a tenner. It's also the same gift as Valentines last year but a different colour. They'll then do another square one for Mother's Day...........how many travel jewellery boxes does a girl need?
Obviously every one that's bidding £25+ on EBay didn't realise what they were selling for, there's loads on there. I sent mine back :tdown:
