Is a Pandora charm bracelets an appropriate gift for a girl turning 12?

I was given one of these bracelets recently, and would love to give one to my niece. This way, I could get her a charm every year and hopefully when she´s a young woman she´ll have a really nice memory bracelet.

My niece is really mature, and these bracelets are almost impossible to take off unless you pry it open.

I have recently discovered Pandora charm bracelets and thought the same thing for my niece turning 12 in July! I have ordered from pugster and off ebay. You can get marked sterling silver .925 charms or rhodium (white gold) plated charms for very little.

I have decided that I am going to give starter bracelets with charms for most of my x-mas list. I have bought a lot of 50 glass murano beads for 9.99. I have bought a set of 10 clip beads for 6.50. And I have bought a mixed set of 30 beads for 19.99 all free s&h.
The Pandora charm bracelets itself I have gotten on ebay sellers new (plated) for 6.50-7.99.

I did purchase a few 'special' charms that were more expensive. Her bracelet has a sterling silver puffed heart, her initial, an eiffel tower, and two glass beads. Also I plan to add 2 clips. Originially I wanted to start hers off by giving only 3 charms but I haven't decided yet. They come in different sizes I went with the 17cm which is 6.7" Most of what adults would wear (guessing) is 18cm (7.1") for a small adult, 19cm (7.5") medium adult, 20cm (7.9") large adult and 21cm for maybe plus size this is 8.3". I thought of maybe an anklet but was unsure about the size. I know adult anklets are 9" and a 22cm would be 8.7" so she would probably be a 20cm or 21cm but idk.

For myself, I have gotten a cute troll sterling seahorse, a lighthouse and a cameo troll beads.
My husband got me sterling silver bracelet as an Easter/Spring present, and I have a beautiful heart charm, and the other day he bought me a pink stone charm for a special May day present. I think he thinks this is the PERFECT gift because he knows I´ll like all charms he gets me.

If you are 16 and every single one of your friends has one and they look really nice, but they are not really suit any style or thing personally.

I think that is a great gift for a mature 12 year old. The Pandora charm bracelets will be special to her because she will remember where she got each one and by whom.She might just keep it forever and think of you everytime she looks at it.They are so cute. Take her to pick it out though, because if she doesn't like the style of it then shes basically stuck with it.
