Charm bracelets, anyone?

[Engel]

Not sure where I was supoosed to post this, but I recently discovered the amazing world of european style charm bracelets (pandora, chamilia style), and there are so many amazing options to make a meaningful bracelet to fill slowly, or just because you find the beads pretty, want to make one with a theme, etc.


also, makes it easier on friends to know what to gift you, lol



just wondering if any other fellow LFAD'er has one, likes them?
i just ordered my first two beads, so excited! I want to make two or three bracelets (because I like the look of wearing two or three together), but will fill them slowly. one being a harry potter bracelet, one will be meaningful beads, and the other landmark beads for places i've been, and will add to that last one when i go to new places.


so, anyone here has one, wants one?

My SO bought me a Pandora bracelet for our one year anniversary! I love it, I only have two beads so far and he says nobody else is allowed to buy me any but him lol!

I don't have any, but I bought my SO a Thomas Sabo necklace for our 2 year anniversary. She loves it! It looks super cute. My mom is also a big fan of Thomas Sabo.

Daww, that is so cute! I got my two beads from etsy, the cutest owl I have ever seen, and a babushka. 925 sterling silver, one i want to go on my meaninful bracelet, the babushka representing my SOs russian heritage, and the owl will go to the harry potter bracelet.

I dont mind wearing it with few beads on it for a long time, as I am quite picky with what I wear, and I am missing wearing bracelets everyday. sterling silver or gold ones, other materials make my skin green.

when i was a child i had 10 yellow gold bracelets I would wear everyday, and would be all the time counting them, paranoid not to loose any! lol
they dont fit since i was 10 or 11, and I could force them into my wrist til i was 12, ROFL, but no longer. I still keep them, if I have a daughter someday I will give it to her, and hope she will love it as much as I did!


So now I want something dingling (is that even a word? ) around my wrist again!

I have a pandora and a thomas sabo one, while i really love both of them where i'm at getting charms for them is extremely hard. I got both of them in Toronto, so they each have a charm on it you can only get in toronto.

I got mine from charmish on etsy. really good quality and all you need is a paypal account. not original pandora but I think what counts is to wear something you love. and they are the same quality sterling silver as pandoras, just a little cheaper for some beads, some are the same price as pandora's. and I liked her owl and her babushka better than the original pandoras, lol

I love love owls! I have some necklaces and earrings of owls, but if i wear more than one or two days in a row it starts to hurt my ear or get green on my skin, so i guess i have low resistance for non gold or sterling silver materials




that is the owl from pandora. you can see other there:

the one I bought on etsy:

I have a pandora, and so does Obi. I love thomos sabo so much more though. Obi and I have Sabo charms (a deer and a rabbit naturally) that I've actually had fitted to plain circular pandora charms so that we can have the strength of pandora, but the beauty of sabo lol. I don't much like the parrot-clip thing sabo charms have.

No one buys me pandora charms for some reason. They probably assume that because the primary role is as friendship braclets between Obi and I that they can't/ would be intruding. I might buy a charm for after we marry, or to represent each child or something. But I'm not sure yet.

i would LOVE to see pictures of your bracelets (both yours and his) if possible. my SO isnt much af a jewelry wearer, so ven though i think it would be great for him to have a pandora bracelet fitting with mine in a way, i guess he wouldnt use it. but i may make a bracelet representing him/us someday!

[Zephii]

This one is mine.

I can't get a photo of his at the moment, but it's more or less the same. It's just bigger, and the pandora is acid-blackened (can't remember the term for that) because I thought the black ones were slightly more manly. And of course, his has a rabbit charm, not a deer.

Some people have mentioned that it's a little bit gay for him to be wearing, but he shrugs it off and tells people why he wears it.

Pandora style bracelets dont do anything for me. But they are great if they do something for you.

one i would like to get matching with my so is someday a simple white gold bracelets with the coordinates from where each other was born or where our wedding took place!!!

if it looked manly enough I guess he would use it, i mentioned this idea to him and he didnt seem to have anything against it!
