It would really be helpful for you to look through the threads here, as there are many photos of all of these options in the VCA threads. A quick scan through the titles will help, especially any of those that may be titled with what you are looking for. There are also the collection threads, plus I am sure there are many in this exact thread, just start from the beginning (if you haven’t already).

Grab a cup of coffee (or tea) and spend some relaxing time looking through. I do this every once in a while just for inspiration and fun. It’s raining, might even do this today!

Great idea BBC, also going in store, especially NYC or Paris would be fun and the opportunity to try on everything and have the' in store' experience.

Still in awe Surfer... I am so excited about doing this... I wonder if it would be less expensive and easier and make more sense to have VCA make me a necklace similar since I am going to need it to land at least 24 inches or more for the perfect drop. I'm NOT letting my VCA Magic bracelet leave my wrist ! lol

thanks. Does anyone just link the 5 motifs alhambra to an extender to make it into a necklace?

I think this would require a very long extender to turn a bracelet into a necklace. The only way I have seen a 5 motif worn as a necklace is with another necklace or bracelet attached to it. I think the Alhambra line allows for a lot of versatility in terms of connecting two 5 motifs, two 10 motifs or a 5 motif and 10 motif, but I think pieces begin to look a bit "jerry rigged" (for lack of a better term) when you venture from those combinations. That is just my opinion, though, I am sure there are others out there who would beg to differ!

Thanks so much! How does everyone like that magic Alhambra ring ? Thinking about getting first VCA piece....
