My re-designed Pandora fairy tale bracelet

The Pandora Spring 2013 collection introduced a number of new fairy tale themed charms to the line and they’re absolutely gorgeous. I already had completed a fairy tale bracelet, but decided to rework the design because the charms were irresistible!  They’re some of the most detailed work I’ve seen from Pandora and I can certainly [...]

My Pandora winter/holiday bracelet

I’ve been working on this bracelet for the past couple of months and I’m excited to feature it today!  As I’ve mentioned before, I decided on an ice blue theme rather than the more traditional Christmas red and green.  The main reason being that I want to be able to wear it longer than just [...]

Pandora fairy tale bracelet complete

The idea for this bracelet came about mainly because of the special frog prince I had commissioned back at the beginning of the year.   Since then quite a few ladies have had the same idea, and even Perlen offers to add the gold crown to any charm!  Well, there were certainly enough fairy tale themed [...]

Two-tone bracelet finished

I had some time this morning and thought I’d share my memories from my two-tone bracelet that I just completed, with the help of my husband’s lovely Valentine’s day present. I got my two-tone bracelet back at the end of November from a promotion (buy the necklace, get the matching bracelet for free) and since [...]

Cleaning and storing Pandora jewelry

I often see questions asked regarding how to take care of Pandora jewelry, in particular the sterling silver pieces as they tarnish very easily and often. Pandora concept stores offer free cleaning of their products which is a great service!  They have jewelry tumblers which can mechanically clean your bracelet, but be aware that if [...]

New guide on getting started with Pandora bracelets

It’s official! I’m heading to the Pandora Unforgettable Moments Cruise in March. I got the time off, the cruise is registered for, and just have to book the plane tickets! I’m unbelievably excited, and I hope I can share the entire experience with you all. In the meantime, between all the holiday excitement and New [...]
