How to Style Charms

How many charms, where to put them and how to tell your story.

Three to five is the sweet spot

Three to five charms spaced along the chain give you a balanced look. Put your favorite at the center and build out from there.

Your story

Build it charm by charm

  1. 1

    Start with a centerpiece

    Pick the charm that means the most, like an initial, a birthstone or a place you love.

  2. 2

    Add the supporting cast

    Choose two to four charms that go with it, in color or in meaning.

  3. 3

    Mix sizes and shapes

    A bigger charm in the middle with smaller ones on the sides looks balanced on any chain.

  4. 4

    Leave room to grow

    Add a charm for every new chapter. On our carabiner necklaces, charms clip on and swap anytime.

Questions

How many charms should I put on a bracelet?

Three or four is a good place to start on a bracelet. It leaves room for the charms to move.

Can I add charms later?

Yes. On our carabiner necklaces, charms clip on and off, so you can add or swap them anytime.

Can I engrave a charm?

Yes. Our engravable charms can carry a name, initials or a date. See engravable charms.
