I’m so charmed…
This post will bore the guys I am sure since I am posting about jewelry but… I recently wore my James Avery charm bracelet and every time I do I always think to myself how I should wear it more often. I started this bracelet back in high school (that makes it over 15 years old) and I have added and removed charms throughout the years. It is currently pretty full but I still keep finding more charms I want to add. I add charms that reflect who I am and my various interests. You can probably tell a lot about me by looking at what is on there.
Just because I am bored, I have listed the charms currently on the bracelet (FYI – I only add James Avery charms) in the extended entry…

And if you have your own charm bracelet (it doesn’t have to be James Avery), feel to tell me what you have hanging off it by leaving a comment or posting it on your own blog!

I need to photograph mine sometime, and then I need to switch to my new bracelet. The old one has “bad mojo” since it was a gift from that friend. I need to make my travel bracelet finally, and I already have a new Avery bracelet – so I don’t have any excuse!
oooooooooo….I have to go dig around for my James Avery charm braclet to share. I too only added JA charms. (Great minds think alike)!
Mine’s not James Avery bracelet, but I try to add a charm for every country/place we go to…I picked up a flamenco dancer charm for Spain and a camel to represent our trip to Morocco. It’s a nice reminder when I wear it of our past trips.
i’ve lost my bracelet but i had only james avery charms of course.
