What do you think to charm bracelets ?

Or necklaces

Personally, not fan. They catch on EVERYTHING. Too heavy. Easily made dirty, charms catch the dust etc. Hard to clean.

Pandora - had its day IMO. Never liked the style. Cheaply made bracelet catches the hairs on your arm.

Agree with the PP that they're awful for catching in your clothing.

I've got loads of Annie Haak bracelets and wear them in a stack. They're more easy to wear. They've all got different sort of charms on but it's very delicate and not clumpy. www.anniehaakdesigns.co.uk/bracelets/bracelet-stacks

I don't like the great big heavy ones like Pandora etc. I do like the tiny light ones with flat charms that little girls wear - I had one as a child and adored it.

I was thinking of something like this
From fable England With little birds and animals on ….

When dc were small I got a Thomas Sabo gold charm bracelet for Mother's Day one year and dh helped them to fill it with beautiful (bloody expensive charms as they're all gold) charms. I really love it and I enjoyed wearing it for years.

I got out of the habit them, must dust it off and give it a wear again soon.

I don't like the Pandora style charms myself. I love the minute details in the more traditional style ones. We bought my mum a pandora as she really wanted one and she had to bring it back as it kept snagging the hairs on her arms and she couldn't bear wearing it!

My Thomas Sabo charms are mostly birds and animals! Love them

I have a Pandora bracelet with one special charm on it that contains some pet hair, but not a fan of the multiple-charm look!

I have a Nomination charm bracelet. Rather than dangly charms, each one is a link. It doesn't catch

I had one as a teenager - it was pretty.

Nana (DM's mum) was known for having gold charm bracelets in 50s/60s which she got the nickname 'jingle jangle' for. She was bought charms by husband/relatives. I have both of them and can't stand them, might sell them.

If you mean Pandora, I think they're the height of chavvy / tacky 😬 can't stand them

Oh I’ll have to Google
Thomas Sabo

No I don’t mean Pandora

This x1000

It’s not Pandora !! 🤣🤣

Most charm bracelets are very naff. Especially pandora. I loathe Pandora actually. I do love fable jewellery though!

Is it for a present for yourself or someone else?

Here's my recommendations for some small business, contemporary jewellers.

I don't like Pandora at all, but I do have an old-fashioned silver charm bracelet that was a present from an old boyfriend twenty years ago. I've added charms to it over the years (and lost a few during drunken nights at university). It is is a bit of a pain to wear, but it's very nice with the right outfit. I like to collect charms that represent particular things to me.

I love my pandora bracelet, I've had it for years and wears it all the time. Each charm means something to me and has been brought as a gift. Thank goodness we don't all like the same thing. Love how the snobs label something they don't like as chavy!

Pandora is ok for schoolchildren but not for adults. And the ridiculous inflated prices for what is basically tat.

I think they are pretty. I regret getting rid of all my old gold charms now - the charms used to catch and get on my nerves, and they were old fashioned and I didn't fully appreciate them at the time. I do still have the bracelet though, which I wear by itself.
Be careful not to buy a bracelet which catches your skin - I also had a Pandora style charm bracelet which drove me nuts because it was to uncomfortable to wear.
I think I like the idea more than the reality tbh.

Those Fable England animal charms are lovely!

I've got a silver Thomas Sabo charm bracelet & each charm means something to me. I rarely wear it though.

I love my Thomas Sabo charm bracelet but it can get caught on clothes so I only wear it occasionally! I also have a beaded one which holds a couple of charms which I wear everyday, it’s much easier to wear and stack.

I've looked up the Fable England charms and I like them too!
I'm not a fan of the nomination bracelets either
