Okay… remember how I said I wanted the teapot? Apparently of the nine charms in the collection the teapot is the one charm they didn’t get. My little snail is a reminder of how lucky I am to have him and how much he’s done for me these past few months. That’s my brother though… a big softie on the outside but fiercely protective of those he cares about. He said newbies fall for it all the time thinking it will be an easy quest. He loves World of Warcraft and when he saw the snail he said it looked like a raid boss in the game… that it looks big and easy to kill but when you go after it the big snail can kill you in one shot. My family has been wonderful over all but my brother has sat up with me when I can’t sleep, hung out with me watching tv he doesn’t like, driven me everywhere since I’m just a little terrified of driving these days, listened to me talk for hours, taken me to Pandora twice this week so I could look at beads and generally been awesome. This little snail is just so cute! Ever since my hubby passed away my brother has been my rock. You can tell they’re pink in person but they’re small. The cz’s on the body are absolutely beautiful… I only wish the pink eyes were bigger like in the graphics but it’s not a deal breaker for me. I mean just look at how stunning this snail is! He’s amazing in pictures and honestly even more amazing in person. When we got there I was after the teapot and the snail… those being the most important on my list. I called to make sure they had the ones I wanted and away we went. Since they’re currently having a sale I headed to my Pandora store asap when the new charms were released on March 15th. I knew right away I wanted the snail, the birdhouse, the teapot and the little clear gem with the ladybug! Which is why I was so excited when the new spring line-up was announced! The man filled up my bracelet and I’m happy as a clam about it… over the last four years I’ve gone from a couple charms to a full bracelet… I’m only a few charms away from finished with the entire circle! Then I’ll have to start on a new one! Of course, different people wear Pandora differently but for me each and every bead has a meaning. So the hubby was golden, I had a bracelet I loved, a chair I loved, a hubby I loved… and he had a foolproof present for every holiday after that. I started looking through the catalogs and of course wanted all. He had bought me two clips, two faceted blue beads (in periwinkle… our wedding colors), the little just married couple, the little first dance wedding couple and the dangly pearl (my birthstone). I had a charm bracelet for years growing up (it’s completely full now) so this present wasn’t exactly unprecedented and I absolutely adored the little beads. At the time I was pissed because I realllllly wanted this office chair I know, I know… ungrateful brat that I am I pulled on my big girl panties (bought myself the chair) and actually looked at the bracelet. Okay y’all I’m here today to talk about a subject near and dear to my heart… Pandora! I have been collecting Pandora beads for the last four years, ever since my hubby gave me a bracelet for Christmas.
