Charm Bracelets and You!  email this discussion to a friend?

I haven't had a charm bracelet since i was a little girl. I lost mine, waaa! My daughter has one of the Italian charm bracelets now. They're really pretty and there are such a variety of trinkets you can get for them! It's nice to always have a gift idea, too.

Do you have a charm bracelet, or have you ever had one? What's on yours? If you don't have one, what charms would you choose to represent *you*?

No I have never had one but if I was to get one I would like to have Angels Fairies and Dolphins on it
And if I could a charm that looked similar to Gissi I would add that to


myLot reputation of 91/100. cremechese51 (1362)  5 years ago

You know what, Gabs. . .maybe there is one that looks similar to Gissi. I was in a shop a few years ago that had all kinds of animal charms in it. Gissi is one-of-a-kind indeed but there may be something similar somewhere.

Oh yes - I've had one since my 10th birthday - it was a present from my parents. When I grew older I had to get some extra links put into it, as my wrist grew too fat for it, - but I do still wear it. I think it's a wonderful reminder of people and places from my past, and it makes me feel quite close to my late Mother and other family no longer around, when I wear it. As for the charms that have been collected over the years........... well, I vave a cat (what a surprise!), a Taurus the Bull which is my Astrological sign, a bear to remember my Russian heritage, a small St. Christpher, an edelweiss flower which came from a childhood family holiday in Austria, a rose for my name of course, a cannabis flower from my mis-spent teenage years (LOL!), and quite a few others! Nice discussion - thanks.


myLot reputation of 91/100. cremechese51 (1362)  5 years ago

Your charms seem really appropriate. The bear is especially interesting to me, I didn't know you were of Russian heritage, look how much we all have to learn about each other.

As for the edelweiss, I think it would be so cool to be able to travel and collect a charm from each place. My mom used to collect mission bells from all the California missions we visited. I think she has most of them on a shelf in the china cabinet.

Oh yes. My Dad is English but my Mum was from Minsk in Belarus, and her family originally from Moscow, and were forced to flee from Moscow to Minsk in the Revolution. My Mum came to the UK as a refugeee after WWII when Minsk was destroyed and she was still a young teenager. I am very proud of my Russian part, and yes - I am bi-lingual:-))


myLot reputation of 91/100. cremechese51 (1362)  5 years ago

That's an interesting family history. ..a little *too* exciting for your mom, I suppose. That had to be very frightening. Just call me cremechinski!

Hi cremechese, Well I do have one, but it's not very old only a few years, and I have angels, hearts, a tiny elephant all in silver. I don't wear it too often, but I love it...
I was so proud when my daughter became engaged last year, I bought her one also of silver, the bracelet itself is interlocking hearts and that was part of her wedding theme. I gave it to her with the very first charm, a little diamond ring (not real). Her husband gave her a little man & wife for it on their wedding night. She wore the bracelet on her wedding day... very special to me.
When she becomes pregnant, I will get her a baby rattle for it...

Hi Cremechese. Yes I have a charm bracelet as well and it has a number of things on it. A ladybug, a daisy, a cat, a dog, covered bridge and I can't remember what else. My mom gave me one a few years ago that my dad had given to her when he was in Korea. It has all kinds of western things on it such as a guitar, a cowboy hat, cowboy boots, a horse and a few other things. They are neat to have because you can put all the things you want or like on it. I love mine.

I don't have one or do I remember having on when I was younger. I use to wear other type of bracelets, though, a lot of them, of all types. Now I only wear a watch and maybe one bracelet if I am going out.

Girl Scouts has a new program called Studio2B. The 'award' for completing one of the interests in this new program is a charm. They can wear them on a bracelet, necklace, or a pin on their shirt or vest.
They have some really cool charms and we will be starting this next year. It is being worked in and girls can do both Studio2B, and the other traditional badges or interest projects.
Most of the girls are excited about it. I have one that has earned 2 already. I guess they really like the charms!

Hey that sounds really cool. We used to get beads in Campfire Girls and it was fun collecting those, but charms are prettier.

I have never actually owned one in my life..Im not a great big jewellery fanatic anyway. I have always been as a child a tomboy and on bikes climbing trees etcc...then later on working on cars etcc...Im sure that it would have just got in the way.

okay, it's not a bracelet, it's an ankle chain.

the first is a little enamelled charm showing the moonphases. a full moon, a dark moon and a waxing and waning crescent.

then a hare.

then a bat with folded wings

then a lovely corset. it's really detailed, hollow through the centre and has gaps in the lacing at the back.

an oak leaf.

a heart charm that came with the anklet, that I had engraved with my initial one side and my partners the other.

I also have, but they're not on it at the moment

a Borage flower, which I haven't got round to adding

a little Witch on a broomstick. she fell off and I need to put her back on.


my charm anklet

myLot reputation of 91/100. cremechese51 (1362)  5 years ago

This is a wonderful ankle chain. . .especially the detail in the corset. I'm going to have to enlarge the picture and look at it more carefully. It looks really beautiful -- thank you so much for adding the picture to the thread!
