#CGG: Charm Factory Charm Bracelet Review & Giveaway

Several months ago, I had the opportunity to review a beautiful Joyful Colors Swarovski Heart Bracelet from the Charm Factory. At that time, I mentioned the Charm Factory’s large selection of cancer awareness charms and my desire to try the teal awareness charm. I was overjoyed when I found out I would be receiving the teal awareness charm along with six other custom picked charms!

I love wearing my charm bracelet and sharing the meaning of each charm with everyone. Charm bracelets are great conversation starters. They can also be worn with nearly every outfit. So when you’re trying to accessorize, but can’t find anything to match, a charm bracelet works perfectly! I had a difficult time picking just 7 charms because Charm Factory has thousands of charms to choose from. I ended up choosing the Teal Cervical Cancer Awareness Charm, Yellow Rose of Texas Charm, Mom Heart Locket, Musical Notes Charm, Pink Star Charm, Buffalo Charm, and the Red Dress Charm.     

  

  

I received my charm bracelet just days after placing my order. I’m always a fan of fast shipping and Charm Factory did not disappoint! My bracelet arrived in a white box with the charms already intact. Each charm is attached using a jump ring with a lobster clasp closure. 

The prices of the charms are simply unbeatable! They have a vast selection of charms under $10.00 and nothing (that I saw) over $20.00. The quality was very impressive. I have been wearing my charm bracelet almost religiously and I am happy to report that my charms still look as new as the day I received them – no tarnishing, no scratching, no fading, and no loose stones! I look forward to enjoying my bracelet for many years to come, with the addition of new charms of course!

All items from Charm Factory are made in the USA and are lead free. They offer unique, high quality, sterling silver charms, charm bracelets, cuff bracelets, affirmation rings, beads, chains, pendants and so much more!  All charms and bracelets are made from .925 sterling silver. Charm Factory offers free shipping when your order totals more than $25.00. They also offer a 100% money back guarantee. If you are not 100% satisfied within 30 days, they’ll refund the entire purchase price!

Charm Factory Charm Bracelet Review

I was recently given the opportunity to review a charm bracelet from Charm Factory. It was a tough decision because they have so many wonderful charms and charm bracelets, but I finally decided on the Joyful Colors Swarovski Heart Bracelet.

These brilliant, shimmering, eye-catching Swarovski heart crystals constantly lift your spirits as they radiate their amazing joyful light. This simply spectacular sterling silver Joyful Colors Swarovski Crystal Heart Bracelet is sure to dazzle and delight anyone. Carefully crafted on a stunning and dainty, yet extremely durable, figure 8 sterling silver foundational bracelet with lobster clasp. Made of .925 sterling silver and Swarovski crystal hearts, this bracelet is 7" with a 2" extender.

I chose this bracelet because of the beautiful pastels. This picture really does no justice. My bracelet is absolutely beautiful. I have always been a huge fan of charm bracelets. The one problem I have always had is the charms breaking loose and falling off. I can tell you this won't happen with charms from Charm Factory. It took me awhile to find out how the charms were attached. Normally you can see a gap in the connector but these are made very well. It would be very difficult to lose a charm from your bracelet. I also love that the charms are spread out far enough to add additional charms. The colors in this bracelet reflect light beautifully. I wore my bracelet yesterday while driving. The light reflected off of the pink and white charms and my heart dropped. From the corner of my eye, it looked like police lights flashing! I couldn't help but look down at my sparkling bracelet every couple of minutes. I was really surprised at how lightweight my bracelet was. I have a bad wrist, so it was nice to find something loose and lightweight.

My favorite section of Charm Factory is their huge selection of awareness ribbon charms. I plan to purchase the teal awareness charm which raises awareness for Ovarian, Uterine, Cervical Cancers, including Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. Most women don't know what PCOS is, but it is very common and can be very serious. Not only are these ribbons eye-catching, but they are a great way to spread awareness by sharing your own personal story. No matter what it is you are looking for, Charm Factory has something for everyone. At these prices, the deals are too good to pass up!
