A charmed life

No, I do not have a charmed life.  What I do have is a charm bracelet.  I guess it is a kinda family tradition.  But Kelley did not have one.  Mom, Kat and I do and I still love mine.  I know that one of my grandmothers gave me it as a gift but I have long forgotten which one so in my mind it came from all of them.  The first charms on my bracelet were a heart the says Grandma, a teddy bear (I still love stuff animals), and the old lady who lived in the shoe (to match the charm on my mother's bracelet).  I have added few over the years and I have lost a few.  I keep meaning to find a teacup, camera, and a radio to go on the bracelet.  I have lost my lizard, caldagh, and lucky cat.  Last weekend I went to a local bead shop to create a new charm for my bracelet.  It has been ages since I added to it and I lost the cat recently.  I chose a nice swirl and leaf both in really nice silver.  I am so in love with it.  Hence this post to show it off.  Each charm on my bracelet has a story, has a meaning, and has love behind it.  I love that I carry my stories with me.




All the charms.
The new charm.
