Soufeel Charms + Etsy charms

I'm not gonna lie, I absolutely loved my soufeel bracelets.I loved it so much so that not too soon after new years, I bought myself even more charms. I did mention I had an issue when it comes to financial self control. I got the fruit cake charm for $15.95, the gift box for $19.95, the hot cocoa for $20, and the soufeel shopping bag for $20. This was also free shipping and came with a free grey packing bag and sterling silver stopper.

A word of warning with this though. Apparently Soufeel had a huge amount of sales and a whole lot of people's orders became mixed up. My order was sent to someone in New Jersey because they had put someone else's address on it. I was really irritated with that. Contacting them was a struggle. I did finally receive my charms but one was missing, there was no packaging bag, and the charms were in a tiny ripped up zip lock bag. I asked them to simply send me that charm, they wouldn't do it unless I made another order. So finally I asked for a refund, which took them days to finally reply to me. Although I do like their things, I'm not sure I'm comfortable with ordering from them again.

Instead, I ordered that charm, which is the hot cocoa charm, from amazon and it even came with prime shipping! So it arrived to my house in two days. It was the exact same price too, $20 and came with a brown pouch.


Anyway, I did want my bracelets to have more of a mixed metal look so I just bought some gold and rose gold beads as spacers from etsy.

The gold beads were $3.99 for a set of five, which I got from the seller BijouxBaublesBeads. They are huge but still nice though. The rose gold beads were a little more expensive at $5.50 for a set of three which I got from the seller natahoa. Both these sellers sell much cheaper versions of these bracelets also in their shops so if you are looking to buy these style of bracelets for someone who you think would not be able to take care of them as well as you would hope and are looking for an inexpensive alternative, for example for any young children or a dear friend who has a bit of a habit of losing things like me (I already lost one of the rose gold beads).



Anyway I will be on the lookout to where I can buy even nice and cheaper alternatives of these charms. I might even buy another bracelet if these get filled up. Who knows. But for now, I absolutely love my bracelets.
