I've replied and have turned messaging off again. Be happy to help you however I can.

Yes-- three of my bracelets have the bar bead. I don't have any issues. The arc is perfect for me but I have large bones. I wear mine with the bar on the bottom but my friends at the boutique and my sister wear theirs on top (they all stack them with multiple bracelets). I took a few quick photos so you can see how it lays on my wrist (which again-- is big) I know @Sueb20 is more petite than I am and I think she has one with a bar bead also-- so maybe wait for her response? I prefer all beads -- but the silver bar is very pretty also. I will also say that my absolute favorites are the longer chains with magnetic clasps that can be worn as a necklace or wrapped and worn as a bracelet. They don't wrap well on my big ol wrists but they look great on others. I wear them as necklaces. ETA .. no inspirational notes. Some of the listings include details on the stones and their meaning and "powers".. and some include the inspiration for the design. I have copied some of them into my own personal notes.

Ah! 3 katz - thank you. Of course they would taste better........I don't know why I never thought of that before. We eat them all the time but Thanksgiving is the only time we have them candied. The pies are in the ovens now so I'll have to remember that for next year.

Keeping this thread alive. Raven hope we hear from you! Miss hearing frommyou. Stay cool!
