    LISA _ I'm so glad you found this thread because I remember you telling me Maddy had a Pandora & she had chosen really thoughtful beads to represent the important/loved ones in her life.

    Yeah, the shoe or the ballerina suits Claudia to the ground huh? There is a beautiful tiara/crown type one as well, as she is always wearing a dress up tiara.

    I have just gone through the Pandora website & funnily enough, I found a strawberry one which reminded me of Jessica right away - so I'm thinking either the strawberry, or a pink glass bead for her & either the crown or the shoe for Claudia.

    BG _ I am loving the star theme happening with you - this is great!

    I got a pandora necklace for my birthday this year and I mentioned this in the birthstone thread that I wanted a birthstone charm for the kids, but because they didn't have the 'right' one for September, I went with their starsigns. I did think of having their initials, but they would have spelt LEPA which I thought didn't look right LOL.

    I don't have a Pandora bracelet, but when I was looking at them, I was going to get a lady bug for Steph and the rhino for Ryan. That's just their nicknames.

    Jayne, I have the booklet sitting in front of me... there's one that looks like ballet slippers with a pink zirconia, the slippers dangle down off the charm.

    My pandora was a gift from school when I left... Most of the beads that have gone on so far are ones to represent different aspects of my life - there's my butterfly, my bible, my stack of text books. I've just recently put a little boy on there for Sam, and I will eventually put another one on for him when something about his personality eventually links up to another charm for me! But I have nothing on there for DH either - thinking a rose eventually for our wedding (we had roses). I think I also need a teddy bear on there for myself.

    One think I've noticed since I got it... pandora probably has the most limited range and the most boring charms! I kind of wish I'd gone with the lovelinks BG has as there are some gorgeous charms in their range!

    BW _ have you seen the charm that has the wedding rings sitting on a pillow? I LOVE this charm.I wish I had seen it before I bought the heart. But DH is already represented so he's lost his chance. Bahahaha.

    if there is something you are particularly looking for, theme wise, you can look at lovelinks or another type of charm - just make sure they will fit your bracelet. i have a universal bracelet, which is supposed to take all beads (DH was worried he'd get the wrong one). Thankful for that fact - he bought Pandora beads last week! they fit, but it's a tight fit. BW only wants Pandora beads cos she is worried about different metals reacting, but I have friends who have a mix and have not had a drama. And I will have a mix. If you want a link to a page that shows bead compatability, PM me and i'll send you the page

    I have a little silver ball with mother of pearl hearts all over it to represent not only my daughter but family. It is really adorable!

    They do seem to be fairly limited in what you can get, but it's not the sort of thing where you will need to fill it up - I already have 11 charms on my necklace and it does feel pretty heavy already. I don't think I will get too many more.

    i can't imagine how heavy a full necklace would be! I have 14 beads on my bracelet and that is getting heavy enough

    my husband bought me a pandora bracelet for my 30th and to represent our family, he bought 'the tree of life' charm, it is one of the expensive ones though, not sure how much you want to spend?
