Hiya, all the bracelets are looking good.

Here is a link to my second batch of charms for my bracelet. I also bought a Pandora necklace whilst in the US (same price as a bracelet over here) which I adore. I am only going to put one charm on it but it makes a fantastic interchangeable necklace.

Also bought the first charm for my 3rd batch of charms for my bracelet today. A blue charm which is a theme my son picked yesterday to mark his 21st birthday. I bought the December birthstone one.

Looks fab, Bev!!! I'd really like a pair of the interchangeable earrings so may look out for those when in the States/Caribbean next month...

I love the necklace. Maybe I need to look out for one of those when I am in Florida.

Just got an email about the new wooden Pandora beads...

Here's some more info about each one...

Acapu...
The Acapu is a mystery. Little do we know about it's relationship with other living organisms. The wood is very dense and normally brown with strikingly beautiful textures.

Muiractiari...
This Light brown coloured wood is a symbol of attraction and sweetness. In the Amazon it attracts honeybees.

Muirapiranga...
The temperamental red and orange tones and colours are highly exceptional. The wildlife of the rainforest come together in the texture and soul of this beautiful wood.

Coracao de negro...
The wood is dark brown and is also called pau ferro - Iron wood. It's very strong, very tough and very hard. It's used for several medical treatments.

Pau amarelo...
Sublime bright yellow colours wit a soft magical depth. this tree is said to have healing powers for toothache. The fruit is used to make juice an wine.

Thanks for the compliments re bracelet/necklace. Sorry posted it up on Twitpic just was using netbook which doesn't work with photobucket and just wanted to get it posted.

The jewellers on the way to Prime Outlets was a canny little shop, had a section to sit in and have trays of Pandora stuff placed in front of you, like being in a goodie shop. I think it was called Laura's accessories or something like that, on the left as you approach Prime, in the block of shops just before. Also just went to Polka Dotz, felt like the place on IDrive had more stock.

Love those wooden ones, Karen, when are they out?

Those wooden beads look great. I wonder how much they will be?

I ended up going to our local bead shop today as I was looking for some supplies for a jewellery making project. I did not get what I came for, but they had lovely glass beads with silver centres that they advertised as "Pandora Style beads" I got 6 of them in three different colours/styles. They were only GBP1.50 each and this will bulk out the Chamilia bracelet that I will get for my Secret Mickey a little. One Tigger charm on its own would have looked a little lonely.

My luverly husband has just returned home from his whistle stop South Africa trip - and 65+ hours without sleeping in a proper bed ... To apologise for the short notice of the trip AND for the fact he's off to Poland next week, he's given me the heart lock and key charm!!!

What a honey!!!

I'll post a pic of my updated bracelet - when I can find the flippin' battery charger for my camera...

Sorry, hun! There are so pretty tho'. I really love 'em and like the rareness of the woods and their different qualities - very unusual...

Lucky you Karen, new charm lovely. Thanks for the info, found them on John Greed's site too.

Thanks for that info, Bev. I looked online and found a store called Kathy's Accessories, 5135 International Drive - I guess that must be it... We'll be going to Prime Outlets so will look out for it... Out of curiosity, where did you park?

Anyway, here's my cleaned, updated and re-themed bracelet...

 

[Pinky166]

That looks fab Karen.

Your bracelet looks lovely Karen I am really thinking about a Chamilia bangle for my next 'bracelet' (says she with only 4 charms ) now that I have seen your I think it's about time I start work on my list for Santa
