Charmed Bracelets

by Tracey Zabar, Lisa Birnbach, Jennifer Cegielski

There is something oh so adorable about a charm bracelet. Is it the jingle and jangle when the wearer moves around, or the fact that you have to get up close and personal to ogle over each quirky little charm? Laden with fond remembrances, tiny figurines, and sweet forget-me-nots, a charm bracelet shows a woman’s history on her wrist. These flirty and fashionable baubles enchant, adorn, seduce, and touch your heart. Take a delicious little peek inside the jewelry boxes of movie stars of long ago, celebs of today, and just plain fabulous women who have great stories to tell via the irresistible charm bracelets on their wrists. A charm bracelet can be funny or feminine, glamorous or girly, kitschy or classic, or just downright cute. How can you make one, get one, find one of your own? What can you do with all your leftover charms? Who knew you loved poodles and pop stars, monkeys and roller skates? These whimsical love tokens and magical amulets can help you to remember your loved ones’ birthdays, start conversations, and make your sister faint with envy. Join the love affair: Wear a charm bracelet, you lucky, lucky girl, and you will be rich and popular, more beautiful and beloved; and maybe all your dreams will come true.

Laura gave me this in 2006. I just sat down last night and read it cover to cover. Loved finding some of my charms inside. Loveliness on every page!

Fun, interesting, informative, and readable, with great photos. It made me re-examine my charm bracelets and start planning others. But mostly I lust after the gorgeous, expensive ones!!
