Paola Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I have a lovely old fashioned solid silver charm bracelet that an aunt gave me after she had travelled around the world, collecting charms from everywhere she went. I had completely forgotten about it. I think I may dig it out now! Sounds gorgeous Annie Any chance of a pic? Pretty please Pandora and Troll are similar. I believe that if you have Troll you can fit Pandora beads but not the way round, I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Hello Pamster *blows kisses* I am a latecomer to troll beads having admired Pams; I was given a bracelet and some charms last Christmas and currently have 5 charms including a chicken one from Rosie. I also have an old gold charm bracelet that I never wear - it was bought for me when I was born and family always used to brign bcak a charm when they travelled. It probably has about 30 charms on it, but I never wear it as it catches on all my clothes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillfamily Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Hello Pamster *blows kisses* morning hun *waves and sends hugs* I am a latecomer to troll beads having admired Pams; I was given a bracelet and some charms last Christmas and currently have 5 charms including a chicken one from Rosie. That was the first thing attracted me to troll beads (after Paola had enlightened us all )........a chicken bead. I thought that was very and a definite must have for Chook keepers :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 After reading this thread I thought I'd look for my charm bracelet, it only had a couple of charms on it. I can't find it anywhere, quite upsetting. Thing is I've moved about 6 times since I got it so its probably got lost in one of the moves. Looking on the bright side I suppose it means I could start again....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 The trick would be to go out and buy a new one Ann, then you can bet your bottom dollar the old one will turn up too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had another hunt around and have found my swan charm but no chain so I'm not quite sure what has happened! I do like the idea of the troll bracelets as they are not dangly as I'm not very good with dangly things They always get caught on my clothes.

Omletina Kyckling Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I have a Trollbeads bracelet, with various trollbeads on, plus some other brands, including some I bought from somebody in Orkney who sells on Ebay. I love it, as it has things on which represent me, such as chickens (of course), teddy bears, cats, glass beads and hubby's initial, plus one with grape vines on to represent my love of wine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassett Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I'd never heard of Troll charm bracelets before, but they look lovely. I suspect my bank balance may be dented very soon!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Thank you for reminding me. I need to order some more charms for upcoming events so I got Nias bracelet out today. So I thought you might like to see it. I have a couple that I havent added yet but I dont think it'll be long before she'll be needing a bigger bracelet.

Paola Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Its gorgeous. How old was Nia when you got the bracelet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 About two weeks. I wanted to do it straight away but kept putting it off as I was paranoid if she didnt make it then I would be left with a bracelet with only a few charms and it would hurt. But she made it so I kept buying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 Bronze-i love that bracelet its really pretty and dainty. Are all the charms soldered on? or can you take them on and off? I think i might ask my mum to get me one of those for Christmas, and let my brother and sisters choose a charm for me too. My favourite charm bracelet so far are the Thomas Sabo ones but the cost of them puts me off. How heavy are the pandora/troll bead bracelets? Does anyone wear one all day, everyday?

Seagazer Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Well I have just got back from Bluewater (and Ebbsfleet - dropping my darling daughter back off at Eurostar for France ) and we went to Swag to pick her ring up after having it downsized and the lady that served us had a troll bracelet on. So I have now seen them in the flesh, didn't even realise they did them in the shop. They are lovely and I would definitely like one on my Christmas wish list. I dropped very heavy hints for my daughter and my mum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronze Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Wish I had done that for my girls Where do you buy the charms Bronze? From here http://www.925silvercharms.co.uk/ though I would buy from elsewhere if I saw something I liked. The lady at that company has given me really good customer service though so I liek to be loyal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 They seemed to have a good selection, the charms and the glass beads. They also did Pandora charms as well. They actually had a selection in the front window and then a whole section inside the shop. It was like being in a sweet shop! Reading on about how pricey theThomas Sabo ones are, I actually thought that there was quite a good price range for the Troll charms in Swag, my daughter said she would be able to just about buy me a little link type one, bless. Just have to drop the hint to hubby now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
