Double twist leather bracelets. I think I would have one in every color if I could. The one on the left is gray and purple on the right. Colors don't always come out right in my house. I usually take pics outside but the weather is really bad right now. Anyone have any ideas what to do when you get multiples of the same charm as gifts? It's like as soon as people find out you "collect" that's all the give you lol

Last pic... I just filled this one up. And yes, I love the blingy ones :biggrin:
Not sure what to do. I bought the clips in the box to clip one on each side near the clasp to keep the charms from falling off the open end but they don't fit unless I remove a couple charms. I've looked at the double ended chains but I'm afraid I'll catch it on stuff. Anyone have that problem?

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 only tempted by the poetic blooms bracelet, the clasp does looks lovely. I've several bracelets and as you know I prefer not to wear them full. If you wear them this way, I think a pretty clasp looks better. I feel I'm getting fed up with the barrel clasp although it looks great on a full bracelet with a safety chain.

I guess it's a matter of preference. What's everyone else's opinions of the barrel clasp?
 
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 tennerView attachment 3594754

Very pretty! Are you planning on adding clips?
 
Ok so I was able to take some pics today so here's mine. The non-charms/bracelets first

I love these. So dainty. I just got the charm for the lilac one....

You have an amazing collection! Thank you for sharing it with us :smile:

Your double leather bracelets are so pretty! I don't have any myself, but your tempting me to get one this summer... And the earrings look so nice.

And your full bracelet is dazzling! It has a fun and a chic unique vibe! If I were you, I would add a safety chain to it that would complete the look. I've never had any problem with mine.

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!

Thank you Mulberrygal! And I've decided to keep the oval lights on my bracelet for now... :smile:
 
I am officially on a Pandora ban for now. At least until the release of the Spring collection and the free bracelet promo... :angel:

Since I got the new black floral clips, I decided to rearrange my bracelet a bit and got a few new charms: two black fascinating muranos, the I love my pets silver enamel and the retired two tone black hearts. For now, I've put a pink looking glass murano in the middle but I'm thinking of putting the cherry blossom one or a white fascinating murano in its place. What do you guys think?

About the two tone black hearts charm, it was originally released as the LE 2011 Black Friday charm. But as you can see, mine does not have the "2011" on the gold heart. Made me wonder if it's authentic... But I bought it at a Pandora store from their retired charms tray and it has all the right markings on the side... Has someone seen this charm like that before?

My first bracelet has the original barrel clasp but I must say that with all the different clasps Pandora released over the years, I'm less drawn to the barrel one. I'm wearing the Signature two tone at the moment and would like to get the new Sparkling hearts during the free bracelet promo.

And the new flower clasp they will release with their Spring collection is very pretty! Like you said Mulberrygal, worn with only a few charms, as you prefer, it would really stand out. :smile:

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.

I don't have any of the Disney charms although I was looking at them in the store yesterday and found them so pretty...

Would love to see your collection, xoelle! Especially if you have a Disney themed bracelet. Please do share your creations with us when you can. :smile:

Yes I really want the two tone "love" clip. It's so beautiful but £65! I wanted to find it on eBay but worry about getting a fake.

It is a nice clip. It was available on Perlen for £46 but now I see it's sold out. I recommend checking their site frequently as they have new stock regularly and they only sell authentic product. I've bought from them a few times and had great customer experience (and I have no affiliation to them whatsoever).

I also like the new classic heart clip from the upcoming Spring collection (I attached a pic from MoraPandora's blog).

Have you thought about getting silver or enamel clips as they are more affordable or you're set on a full two tone look?

Keep us posted on the progression of your beautiful bracelet! :smile:

I was trying to stop buying pandora... But it's so addictive.
This is what i got on sales:

img-thing.jpg pandora-2014-vintage-heart-dangle.png download.jpg -this wasn't on sale but it's adorable.

I don't like Pandora's new concept of charms. It is supposed to be silver. And not thin silver frame aronud cubic zirconia/enamel.
The materials are getting cheaper and of lower quality in my opinion.
