Pandora

Happy Saturday y'all!!!!!!! I'm so glad it's the weekend! This week has felt so long for some reason. Our Uncle Buddy passed away yesterday afternoon. :(  I know he's in a better place and is free from his pain and suffering, but I really wish we would have been able to see him before it happened. It has probably been a year since we visited him. I know we can't go back so there's no sense in worrying about it, but I still feel a little guilty and sad. We are headed to the beach in a couple of hours to visit the family. I need to get off here and make a beef and potato casserole but I wanted to talk to y'all about Pandora bracelets first!! Have you seen these?? I must have been living in a hole or something because I just found out about them! My friend had one on the other day and I fell in love with it.







I've always loved charm bracelets and this particular one is so nice! I had been looking for a Mother's Day gift for my Mother-in-Law and this is what I decided on. She loves the beach so I went with the silver bracelet and a flip flop charm because she grew up by the beach and still loves it.





I have to have one for myself though!!!! I hinted to my husband which style I wanted, what size I wear, and a charm that I saw that I HAD to have. Guess what it was!!! A cupcake!!!!!!!! Isn't it the cutest thing?!





They have tons of different beads and you can get silver, gold, or leather bracelets. They have silver, gold, glass and wooden beads. I can't wait to get one and start filling it up! Do y'all have one or have you heard of them? What do you think about them?

  3. Welcome to the Pandora madness!!! LOL

    The same thing happened to me. Last Christmas I found out about them for the first time and felt the same way since practically everybody here in Miami has one :-) My hubby gave me one for Valentine's and I love it!!! Mine is filled up half way already, I love the concept.

    I just recommended it to a friend of mine for his wife for mother's day - She must be the only friend of mine that doesn't own one :-) I think they make a great gift. They are adorable!

    Happy weekend!

  4. Love the bracelets. So so pretty! I'm so sorry to hear about your uncle, but yes, he's in a better place now, and without pain. That's the best part, knowing that. Have a great time with your family today! This weather is gorgeous!

  5. Sorry about your uncle. I lost both grandparents this year, so I know how you feel. I guess there is comfort in the fact that he's in a better place, but it is still hard for those of us left behind. Time does heal it all though.

    Have a nice weekend,
    Marcie

  15. I'm sorry to hear about your Uncle. You'll be in my prayers.


    I LOVE my new Pandora bracelet!! It's beautiful but also casual enough to wear everyday!! I've also seen the necklaces be wrapped twice and worn as a bracelet - super cute, and great if you're running out of room for your charms!!

  17. I’m sorry about your Uncle :(

    The possibilities with these bracelets really are endless and I’ve considered getting one. I don’t wear bracelets a lot, but I bet I would if I had one of these. The cupcake charm is too cute :)

  18. terribly sorry to hear about your uncle.

    on an upbeat note I love Pandora bracelets. My mom actually has one which she calls her "race bracelet". Every time she runs a road race she picks a new charm which goes with the theme of the race (St. Paddy's Day Race+ shamrock, ect). Very cool.

  21. Pandora bracelet is the best gift you can give to your mother-in-law. Pandora charms are meaningful, and have its own story behind every bead. I’m certain she’ll love and treasure that gift. ->Mitchum Jewelers
