Creative Ways to Use Pandora charms

There are beads, spacers, gems, charms of all kinds, and more. All it takes is a basic plan or idea and the bracelet can be slowly developed from there. There are even themed gift sets to help someone get started on a bracelet too. These come as sets of three coordinated beads which might feature such themes as Afternoon Tea, Happy Anniversary, or a Road Trip!For our example, we will create a winter themed charm bracelet with accents of pale blue and cool silver. What sorts of charms could this feature? Using only Pandora pieces the bracelet could rely on pale blue Murano glass accented with deep blue dots. We could choose sterling silver snow men beads, tube beads with silver and gold snowflakes, charms with small pearls delicately bobbing from beneath, white glass bands, silver rings, and even a sterling silver birthstone bead or two. All of these would be strung on a sturdy silver chain using the standard Pandora clasp.What we have just done is build only a single example of a charm bracelet, but there is an almost unlimited array of themes that could be expressed in the same way. There are sterling silver and 14k gold bases, cotton cord bases, and even tightly woven leather straps to serve as bases.
