An old necklace can serve as a chain.Attach the lobster claw to one end of the chain using a jump ring to make it wearable. Attach secondly the charms to the chain and make sure they are aligned in the same direction. You can wear it and see how it looks.

Determining a cheap charm bracelet is not the easiest these days it would be best to have it checked by an expert in the field. I would expect buying from a trusted jeweller like Pandora, Proud's or Micheal Hill to be the safest place to purchase.

For pool wear I would pick overstock’s sterling silver 3-charm cubic zirconia bracelet. Its stylish doesn’t have a lot of charms you can loose and sliver does good in water. I wouldn't take my most expensive charm to the pool and i would wear a cheap charm because it will fall apart.
It depends on what material it is made from. If it's made from silver it could be worth up to 150 dollars but if it is some other cheap metal it can be worth less.
A charm bracelet can be a wonderful thing to collect. You can keep it for your whole life, passing it on to your children to keep, each charm holding a memory that will never be forgotten. However, before you go out and start buying charms, it is best to consider some important points. -Step 1: Gold or Silver Before you go and start buying lots of charms, you need to choose what type of charm you want to collect. The most popular are silver, but you can also have gold, the only downside being the cost difference. Gold is a lot pricier than silver and less commercially available. But some people prefer gold to silver, so it’s worth thinking about. There is also pewter as an option, which is cheaper than silver or gold. -Step 2: Find your charm bracelet You need to choose a bracelet to put the charms on. There are many to choose from. You can go for a vintage type t-bar charm bracelet, or you can go for a modern ‘scrunchie’ bracelet. It’s up to you what you prefer. The scrunchie bracelets are likely to cost you more. -Step 3: Buy your charm bracelet Search for the right price. Go to jewelers, search online and go to online auction sites until you find the bracelet you want for the price you want. Make sure it is a heavy-quality bracelet, not a cheap metal that won’t last. -Step 4: Buy your first charm Choose a charm that represents something important to you. It could be your star sign, or something that represents your best friend of partner. It’s up to you, but this is your first charm, so choose carefully. -Step 5: Build up our bracelet Every birthday or anniversary, ask someone close to you to buy you a charm for your bracelet. Soon, it will build up and you will have lots of charms on your bracelet. Every charm on your charm bracelet should mean something to you. It should represent something, so when you look back over them you will remember why you have it.
