For a frivolous thread; do you have a charm bracelet, and what charms do you have. Do they bring back memories? Tillytrotter inspired me with her clean bracelet in the washing soda thread.
I was given a silver charm bracelet at around age 12, with a plane charm to mark our first flight. Other charms include:
a small map of Jersey (the first trip on a plane)
Eiffel tower
Star of David (a friend went to Isreal)
Scorpio sign
Montreal charm (sister went)
Lourdes blue enamel charm (my mother got in in the 50's)
Horse - just because I loved horses as a young teen
This 70's bracelet will be worn once in a while, but the plane keeps getting caught in sweaters, so I have to be careful. I still love the jangle sound when I do wear it!
I also have a Pandora bracelet with quite a few charms, some given by my children. This gets worn quite a bit, especially in the summer when I look better in silver.
I'm also thinking of starting a bracelet with single earrings turned into charms... I have quite a few!
