How to Select Gold and Silver Charm Bracelets

Making your choice between gold and silver charm bracelets really depends simply on your personal preference. Both materials are strong, durable and valuable. You should consider whether there are heirloom charms that may be passed on to you from a grandmother or aunt, as this will affect your bracelet, should you decide to add them. Most bracelets are adjustable, so if you buy one for your young daughter, she will not have to wait until she is older before she can wear it. She will be able to start wearing it right away.

If you give a charm bracelet as a gift, start her out with a few specially selected charms that reflect things that are special to her. Think about her hobbies, sports that she enjoys, a disc with a personal message engraved on it, special dates, or a number that reflects her age. Bracelets are available in several metals, including gold, silver, stainless steel, titanium and others. It is important that the bracelet also reflects her sense of style.

Some Tips to Maintain the Silver Charms

An example would be not to buy a bracelet with a very intricate design for a young lady that is very sporty or a simple chunky bracelet with bulky links for someone who is very feminine. It is best to go with a simple style Link styles vary greatly too, as do the styles of closing mechanisms, otherwise known as clasps. Most bracelets have the lobster type clasp, toggle clasp or clasps in the shape of flowers or hearts that are particularly special if given to your sweetheart.

The length of Gold and Silver Charm Bracelets range between seven to eight inches to fit the average female wrist. Buying a bracelet at a size, which is slightly larger, will ensure that it fits in years to come. Giving it as a gift is a great way to commemorate a special relationship and special events in the life of a person who is special to you.

Celebrate Love For Your Pets With Charms

It is amazing how well my dog and cat get along. They have always been together from a puppy and a kitten and they simply adore each other in every way possible. They spend their days together, play together and even snuggle up to go to sleep together. In order to celebrate their friendship, I decided to collect charms of dogs and cats. I also decided on specific types of charms so they most closely matched my pets, kind of a way to take along my pets with me.

In real life I have a little Yorkshire Terrier named Buffy and she is just too cute to believe. Since she is mostly a blue-gray color I decided to go with silver charms for her and gold charms for the big orange cat named Max. The mixture of the two different colors of charms on the bracelet will be great, plus I can wear any other jewelry with it as well.

Silver charms of little Yorkies were everywhere that I looked, which is perfect for adding to my bracelet and growing collection. I have Yorkshire Terriers doing all types of things included playing with a bone, sitting up to beg for a treat and just looking pretty.

To represent the cat Max there are a huge number of cat charms in all different styles and fashions. I have even ordered some from other countries through online sites, adding to the unique look for these gold charms on the bracelet.

Hissing cats, sleeping cats and even cats playing with string are all included in my collection. The cat charms, all in gold, really go well with the dog charms in silver, plus I have also added a few other pet toy types of charms.

Mixing the gold and silver charms together was a really good idea if I do say so myself. I haven't completely arranged them to be dog and cat in order, but there are lots of dog and cat charms right next to each other to emphasis their enjoyment of spending time together.

Toys and a few bones, balls of string and even a little miniature dog house are also scattered through the charms on the bracelet. I included these because they are things that they both enjoy, especially the toy charms when it is time to play.

I have been really surprised at how many people love my collection of dog and cat charms and stop to ask me about the bracelet. I guess not everyone is as luck to have two wonderful pets that can get along together so well living in their house.
