I think the Pandora will look dated in the future (if that matters to you.)<br /> I think they are timeless. </p> <p>The bottom is the ring I got when my son was born and the top is the one I am having made for my daughter. I can't wait to wear them together.</p> <p>[attach=8671/19/poht19.600x600.IMG_20190206_112528_491000.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876964 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 21:36:03 +0000 Umbreon 2876964@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetCaroline: oh that is very nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876923 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 13:44:21 +0000 SweetCaroline 2876923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Umbreon: my Pandora looks great and I rarely wear it these days. I've had it for 8-9 years and I've had all the charms for 4+ years. Its heavy so I only wear if for special occasions. I work on a computer all day, so it clangs against my desk/keyboard.</p> <p>I also have a rose gold necklace. It has 3 tiny tags, one rose gold, one gold, one silver. One has DHs name, one has DDs and one has a heart, signifying the room we have in our hearts for another family member.</p> <p>ETA image from Etsy shop </p> [attach=6508/19/poh2vs.600x598.Screenshot_20190316-144706_Etsy.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876919 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 12:30:21 +0000 PurplePumps 2876919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Umbreon: it's just hanging on my jewelry wall rack in the bathroom </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876914 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 11:49:42 +0000 wrkbrk 2876914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Umbreon: Can’t speak to what you might like the most but I can say my pandora hasn’t tarnished at all and I very rarely wear it (that sucker is heavy!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876913 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 11:47:58 +0000 JCCovi 2876913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for stacking rings! I wear mine around the clock and I like how they mirror the imagery of my engagement/wedding set. The kids like to point to them and ask me who each one reminds me of. </p> <p>One thing about rings is I received each of mine on the mother’s day after the birth. It would have been hard to do ring sizing right after the birth. Bracelets don’t have that problem at least! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876912 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 11:47:14 +0000 Umbreon 2876912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PurplePumps: how do you store it when you aren't wearing it?</p> <p>I do intend to wear it every day but I cant say that will be the case for the rest of my life. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876910 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 11:42:25 +0000 PurplePumps 2876910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only have 2 charms actually from pandora, and it's been 5 months since I've worn it and it hasn't tarnished. All my other charms are Ninaqueen from Amazon and silver too abs still look good, same with the bracelet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876909 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 11:31:21 +0000 catgirl 2876909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For another idea - DH gave me an initial necklace charm for my first Mother's Day with DD's initial. If we have another LO I will add another initial. I might also get a small charm with DH's birthstone or the stone from the month we got married. </p> <p>Mine is from Helen Ficalora and I LOVE it! Personally I wanted something that was white gold for longevity. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876907 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 11:22:23 +0000 Umbreon 2876907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: thank you! Yeah I'm not set on charms, something I could add other birthstones to would work as well. I just like the idea of having something that represents our family and being able to customize it as it grows. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876896 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 11:01:28 +0000 bhbee 2876896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It’s a different thing (no charms) but I love stacking rings which leaves options open and isn’t too specific to a given look. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jewelry-pandora-or-something-else#post-2876895 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 10:48:55 +0000 Umbreon 2876895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hello! DH surprised me yesterday and said he wanted to buy me a pandora bracelet as we are expecting our first soon. He said he wanted to make sure he got something I liked.</p> <p>I love the idea of adding charms that mean something to the bracelet. I love being able to add to it as we have more children. What I didnt realize is that everything is sterling silver and I worry about tarnishing!</p> <p>It is pretty expensive for something that will not last forever. And for something so sentimental I would want it to last forever. </p> <p>Does anyone have any experience with pandora? If you stop wearing it for awhile does it turn black? Once it tarnishes, can it be fixed?</p> <p>Does anyone else have any other suggestions for jewelry? I just want to be able to add to it for the next child too. Or is pandora the best for what I want? </p>
