Throughout the past two years I have met such amazing people through my business. I can honestly say that Katie's Charms customers are the BEST! You are all so supportive, and I never forget that Katie's Charms continues to be a success because of all of YOU! Thank you!!!

A little bit of information about us:

Katie's Charms is a top online source for beads and charms that fit multiple brands of European bead bracelets such as Pandora, Chamilia and Trollbeads. I also sell starter bracelets and I am an authorized retailer of Carlo Biagi jewelry.

I take great pride in bringing my customers high quality jewelry that is affordable. I carry .925 sterling silver, Italian Murano glass, Swarovski crystals and other materials that will last for many years.

By keeping my costs low, I can provide my customers will great prices, helping them fill their bracelets faster while still maintaining a beautiful design. I'm in love with European bead bracelets, and am always so excited when I find new designs of beads and charms to share with my customers.

My business was born as a way to help out with the family budget. As a mom of now three little cuties all under the age of 5, I wanted to stay home with them, and Katie's Charms was the answer! I named the business after one of my kids so that I would always be reminded of why I'm doing this. It makes all the late nights worth it when I get to be such a big part of my kids' everyday lives.

What really sets my business apart is how well I take care of my customers. I treat them the way I want to be treated. I will go out of my way not just to make them happy but to make them THRILLED with their Katie's Charms experience! Through my Facebook business page I communicate one-on-one with fans, giving updates on new beads and information on sales and fun giveaways. It's just one of the ways I try to make shopping with Katie's Charms a "charming" experience!
