I got the bracelet for Christmas, with a few beads on it.
Then with a bead from each of my men on Mother's Day, it's really starting to fill out!
Do any of you have a Pandora Bracelet? Or Trollbeads? This one is part Troll and part
Pandora. It's nice that they are interchangeable.

Betsy, I must tell you that Carl completely surprised me with a Pandora bracelet three years ago on Mother's Day. Since then he has added a few more beads ~ which I treasure! Yours is beautiful .. it's going to take me a long time to fill mine. (as I typed those words, it occurred to me that I might consider adding them a tad faster :-)
ReplyDeleteWell now, Carl has some good taste in jewelry, doesn't he! What a nice surprise! And yes...there isn't any rule that says you can't buy a few for yourself! :)
DeleteI'd offer something interesting or perhaps even witty, if I had something to say about jewelry. I've purchased some as gifts that brought smiles and tears to their face. But I have no idea what pieces have the 'magic' and those that flop. :(
ReplyDeletehaha...Oh Daniel..believe me...I've received more than a few flops. :) lol...
DeleteVery nice! Is it heavy?
ReplyDeleteIt is a little heavy..but I can handle a heavy bracelet...it's a heavy necklace that bothers me! ha.
DeleteBeads and bracelet, beautiful.
ReplyDeleteMother's Day gift, priceless!
aww...look at you...writing cute commercials! :)
Deleteawww that is a very cute bracelet...glad they treated you right...smiles..
ReplyDeleteyes, they did! :)
DeleteVery nice! I have one too - with trollbeads. It's so fun to add beads to it!
ReplyDeleteIt is fun! I'm enjoying it! :)
DeleteI do have a Pandora bracelet but not many beads/charms. It's such a nice thing to have so loved ones can add to it.
ReplyDeleteBest,
Bonnie
I bet it's beautiful! :)
DeleteWhat nice bracelet Betsy, no I havent nothing like this, is really beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI just arrive now dear, all day in errands,!
thanks, gloria! You day out sounded fun, too. :)
DeleteI love the Pandora braceletes! I had no idea that you could interchange the beads. So pretty :)
ReplyDeletethanks, jax. I wonder if they make a black and white cookie charm! :)
DeleteI love those. Don't have one, but I sure do admire yours!! Very nice Mother's Day prize. blessings ~ Tanna
ReplyDeleteThe way you captured your bracelet in the sunlight, it just sparkles. Five men, five beads to add to your bracelet....how nice!! Your photography is so amazing Betsy...beautiful.
ReplyDeletethanks, wanda. You know, I put the beads on and and had it sitting here on my desk and it looked so pretty the next morning in the early light that I had to snap a picture! :)
DeleteLucky you! Yes, I am a Pandora person, too; and I started a bracelet for my daughter a few years ago. Mine is pretty much finished...maybe room for one more charm. I love wearing it, as each charm has special meaning for me.
ReplyDeleteWell, you know, I didn't have anything to do with this one. haha...and the charms and beads weren't picked with a particular meaning like they are supposed to. (I don't think The Mister realizes that's the idea!) So...it's just pretty and not meaningful... in that way, anyway. haha...but I still like it a lot. Maybe the next one I can fill it like that. :)
DeleteThose five men of yours sure are sweet!!
ReplyDeletehaha..yes, they can have their moments. :)
DeleteHow very pretty !
ReplyDeleteYou are loved beyond words....
~Jo
thanks, jo. :)
Deleteit's pretty, and even more so that it's an object of sentiment, but talking jewelry, well, as you needed the dictionary for my last piece, I certainly need to go search around etsy or wiki, because for me, Pandora is either A. a box filled with demonic things or B. internet radio and a Troll, is well, either one of those fuzzy haired dolls from yesteryear or a mean creature living under a bridge lol The interchangeability factor is always a nice touch, for anything really. Very pretty bracelet, my favorite beads are the one to the most right, it's a cream color with purple swirl lines or the one kinda central, a deep purple with what looks like a nice coarse texture. Very cool.
ReplyDeletehaha..I'm so glad to get you back! No hairy creatures or demonic boxes, though. In fact, Trollbeads have been around since the 1970's! Both Troll and Pandora have their own websites. Maybe I've allowed you to stumble upon a new gift idea for the women in your life. :) Working on my 'underground' CT entry...wondering what you'll come up with!
DeleteHi Betsy! I have no clue what a pandora or trollbeads bracelets is, nevertheless yours look just wonderful! and I love the idea of adding new beads on it :-) I missed you too!!! I see you have a new picture of you here and you look younger again, how do you do it girl? I'll be trying to stop when I can here!! :-) Happy Mothers Day, you are one of the best I know! :-)

ReplyDeletejust to make it 3 times since I haven't been here for such a long time ... haha
ReplyDeleteit's blogger!!! I thought it eat my first comment, so I typed it again ... then deleted it once I realized it came through anyway, obviously I'm forgetting how to even use the PC ... haha!
haha...I see you! So nice to see your cheery yellow birdie self! hahaha. :)
Deletesuch a beautiful gift that just keeps getting better!
ReplyDeleteI have started a new blog, I hope you find me again, I have called it When the bough broke!
When the bough broke? haha...well, at least you've found your sense of humor through your horrible ordeal! Of course I'll come and find you! :)
DeleteWhat a lovely bracelet. It would go with just about anything you wore. I hope you were thoroughly blessed.
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven't been around. We had mother's day, my bithday, a graduation, a vacation day, and I'm working on another site as well. Swamped is the word. But you were never far from my thoughts when I thought about a list of thingies to get back too.
wow...you have been busy! But with wonderful stuff! New site? How fun!
DeleteWhat a lovely lovely gift. Your men have great taste in jewelry...and women too. =)
ReplyDeleteI guess it is pretty but what does a cat know?
ReplyDeleteHe'd eat them at his show
And that is for sure he would
As he eats anything like that in our hood
I have a long silver chain, with 3 charms my daughter had given me...I cherish this necklace, and the 3 charms...they say..."courage" "love" "peace"...all stirling silver..
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in Florida this winter, I purchased a troll bead, and a silver turtle to add to the collection...my brother and sister-in-law gave me a mauve bracelet, with all the trimmings...
I actually wear 7 bracelets daily....all with plenty of memories attached...perhaps a blog on my jewellery is in the works!!! who knows???
Your bracelet is lovely....very classical...
Cheers!
Linda :o)
What a nice surprise for Mother's Day. I got a porch swing...an old fashioned porch swing. We don't see many of those here in this part of Arizona.
ReplyDeleteso beautiful!!! love it!
ReplyDeleteHi Betsy .. looks delightful - I'd have thought the cats would have got in on the act too .. then you could have had a necklace as well .... ?! Next time perhaps .. lovely presents though .. cheers Hilary
