Q Days of Christmas eek bracelet

[Weathergirl]

Well I was so disappointed with mine I returned it. But look what little beauty I found! I have seen it in the flesh and it is absolutely beautiful. I can replace the charms on the bangle for the non-festive times of year. It will compliment my Pandora nicely

Looks nice but it is a lot more than the eek tennis bracelet.

It is, but if you saw what little you get for your money with the eek one you would understand. And I can use the bracelet all year round with different charms on.

WG I think this looks really lovely and unlike the Eek one the charms aren't screaming 12 days Christmas cracker rather they are very subtle and IMO could be worn all year round especially a few at a time.

I know I would rather pay for this than the eek one which I thought was very overpriced.

Have you purchased it yet?

I passed HS this morning and wished now I had stopped to look.

 

[Weathergirl]

Yes I got it online. Free delivery too. It is the only thing I bought in the sales though (plus 2 charms to wear on it from 6 Jan-30 November-also in the sale). I figured if you add up the total spend I could have made in other stores on clothes, shoes, make up etc it would easily add up to the price of the bracelet.

I am changing my ways on Q from now on. Nothing like a total ban of course, but easing off and using up and enjoying what I have. Hoping to pay off the credit card and count my blessings a little bit more. I am very lucky, I need to count my blessings every single day so this bracelet is the last treat for me. If I can get to next Christmas only buying what I need then I will be pleased with myself.

It`s my birthday on Tuesday and I`ve been given some money and wanted to spend it on something to keep, not something like perfume or clothes. Anyway I bought this and will wear it along with my Pandora bracelet. It`s now out of stock at Ernest Jones but is still available elsewhere and in the sale.

I also liked this set which is kind of Christmas themed, similar to the one WG has ordered. It`s also in the sale.

Happy Birthday for Tuesday Vienna. Great choice. Ernest Jones have sold out of quite a lot of chamilia now and the set I bought was out of stock there before Christmas. H Samuels still have a fair amount left. There were also a few other sets on chamilia own website in the sale. I saw a valentines set on there and also one called "nature and nurture" which looks lovely too.

Oooh! My set is now sold out on HSamuel website now. Wonder if there has been a bit of a run on chamilia from ST forumites? I assure you that you will not be disappointed these bracelets are solid and exquisite. And you can play around with different charms as you get them so it will always be unique and different every day if you want it to be. I read online that Pandora charms fit chamilia too.

They all look lovely and will give so much pleasure for such a long time in comparison to 4 bottles of Time Bomb or L'occtaine

Happy birthday Vienna and may you both have health to wear

It looks lovely! My Son bought me a Pandora bracelet in April as a total surprise! It was something that I never had any interest in. I was so glad that he did as I am enjoying looking at all the gorgeous charms and making my own unique bracelet.

It looks lovely! My Son bought me a Pandora bracelet in April as a total surprise! It was something that I never had any interest in. I was so glad that he did as I am enjoying looking at all the gorgeous charms and making my own unique bracelet.

I love Pandora - Mr Tiddly does too because it makes gift buying simple. Each season I get the little catalogue and ring the charms I fancy... he then has a big clue about what to get me for Valentines, Easter, Birthday, anniversary etc. He gets an easy life and I get what I love.

I've just got the St Christopher and love it:

I agree with you all about Pandora. I have been collecting mine since 2007 and love it, I wear it every day and each charm means something in my life. I love that my bracelet does not look remotely like anybody else's. The only thing wrong with it is that it's an absolute bu**er to keep clean. I attack it with a silver polishing cloth every now and then, and some Pandora stores offer a free cleaning service.

My Chamilia bangle with 12 days of christmas charms has been shipped!! It has gorgeous swarowski (sp) crystal stone stoppers on each end of the bangle in what appears to be a smoky quartz or champagne colour. When I checked the Chamilia website I see that you can buy these stoppers seperately so when I wear my non-festive charms on it I can change the crystal stoppers on the end so it looks like a different bracelet. I can wear it every day with my Pandora! I sold a couple of Mally eyeshadow sticks on eBay so I used PayPal money to buy the blue crystal stoppers to wear with my blue crystal beads I picked up in the sale. I just thought blue beads would look better with blue stoppers as opposed to champagne.

It arrived today! Excuisite is the right word. Lovely quality, on a par with Pandora. Chamilia is definitely more bling, a younger feel. Pandora are more classic, contemporary, abstract even. Trollbeads seem to be more mythical in style from what I have seen online.

Have any of your orders arrived yet and do you like them?

Yes my bangle arrived a couple of days ago and it sits nicely alongside my Pandora bracelet. The bangle has 3 charms on it, a dangly sparkly heart charm and 2 other sparkly slider charms. I won`t buy anymore charms for it because I don`t want the bangle tangling with the Pandora bracelet. It sits just nicely at the moment.
