Adding beads to the bracelet with have the effect of shortening it, so it is a good idea to choose a larger bracelet than usual, at least 1" longer than your wrist measurement.
Depending on the look you want to create you may want to select either a selection of coloured glass and enamelled beads, a selection of silver beads or a mixture of both. Both options look gorgeous.

Spacer beads are narrower than your main beads and are designed to fit in between. They are also cheaper and a selection of spacers can help to fill up your bracelet nicely without costing so much.

Chrysalis Charms
Most Chrysalis charms have lobster style clips so that they can be used in a variety of ways. They can either clip directly on a traditional linked charm bracelet, or used in conjunction with a charm spacer (which has a loop for it to attach to) and can then be slipped onto a bead style bracelet.

There are various ways to make your bracelet more secure.
Stopper Clips - these can be placed at any point on your bracelet to keep groups of beads together, or at the end of a row of beads to stop them moving along the bracelet.
Security Chains - these are slipped on to either end of your bracelet to allow you to open the clasp of the bracelet without the beads coming off the end while you put it on and off.
Locker Clasps - these are used to clasp together your open ended bracelet.
