Charm necklaces as bracelets

My wrist size is 5 1/2 inches (tightly measured). It is a very difficult task for me find bracelets for my wrist (unless they are stretchy and made for smaller wrists). Custom ordering has been the only way. But I love all these charm bracelets. So was wondering if I could wrap charm necklaces around my wrist a couple of times to make them bracelets? Any suggestions for good charm necklaces?

Have you tried a charm bracelet with links, and just clasping the lobster claw at a shorter length?

Yes I have. But do not like the look and feel of a dangling loose end Smiley Sad

I also have a 5.5 inch wrist. I have and love this charm bracelet from BlueNile in the 6.5 inch. BN has lot of charms to choose from, and often has coupons.

I also wanted to add, even though it's not a charm bracelet, this one from Tiffany's. I have one similar to it, but with the 1837 circle in rubedo, in the 6 inch. I'd never before seen a stock setting with a 6 inch bracelet. Just something else to tempt you. ;-)

This looks like a different kind of charm bracelet: http://www.tiffany.com/Shopping/item.aspx?origin=browse&mcat=148204&searchkeyword=&sku=GRP05803&sele... "Size small, fits wrists up to 5.75" in circumference."

Re: Charm necklaces as bracelets

I have your size wrist. I would suggest Tiffany or Pandora. Tiffany has 2 types of charm bracelets that can be ajusted to fit your wrist. A Soldered link which they will take off links to fit your wrists. What I would suggest is their Clasping Link Bracelet that are not soldered & with that type you can put many dangle charms & the charms you choose don't have to be Tiffany charms as long as they are the dangle charms.

Pandora has Charm Bracelets that will fit your wrist size. the smallest is 6.7in. They are not link bracelets which you can have charms that don't dangle or both, its your choice & also some charms from differents stores will fit the charm bracelets.

Go to their websites & take a look. You also have to consider if you want to fill a charm bracelet with lots of charms, if so you will need a size up.

Pandora also has promotions w free bracelets when you spend a certain amount of charms etc. which usually is posted here ahead of time.
