I kept the dragon charm that comes with the Flamy I bought to my cousin-niece because my mother wanted to keep me. It seems that my aunt might think that it's a bat and thus EEEEVIIIIL *sigh*
So, I have a charm and no idea what to do with it. Any ideas?

I don't do anything with the charms (and combs, etc.). I just store them all in a Ziploc bag. Not much help, I know! Ha ha.

I usually store mine away, too. Is there no other figure or plush you could maybe place it on that won't attract her attention?

I actually let my Zelfs wear their charms. It's a good way of keeping them safe, plus it came up with a little story in my head that if a Zelf grants you their charm, you will be blessed with their power.

I love seeing pics of people's Zelfs wearing their charms. Too cute! But mine just sit in a baggy as well. XD;
You could always wear it on your keychain or even sell it on ebay! (I'm sure someone will buy it, we collectors are crazy XD )

I keep them all in a jewelry box, with the combs.  |

Aw; I'm touched people like the idea of Zelfs wearing their charms / the little story my head came up with to go along with it.
Though I've noticed some paint chips on Lunanne's charm :/

Though I've noticed some paint chips on Lunanne's charm :/ Same here, my Flamy charm has a big white spot on the side where the green paint peeled off! And I barely handled it after taking it out of the package!  Strange that they cast the charms in white plastic and put paint over them, instead of just casting them in colored plastic. Some of the Mini Zelfs are like that as well. The plastic inside is clear or white (sometimes even with glitter!  ), and the color of the Zelf is painted on. Must just be the way they did it at the factory. |

I just keep mine in a little storage container. Except for Miss Clover. I took her charm off the string and it sits next to her on the shelf where she is displayed. |

I think basic acrylic paint might work for repair jobs. I think. Will need to find out. Aw, and thank you Flitter! |

When they first came out I was kinda confused. If they had made the string alittle longer they could be used as brackets and be so much cooler.idk what ur supposed to do with them. I mean at first I thought they were cell phone charms but a lot of phones don't have the ability to hold charms no mo.

I just wish the string was elastic- it's a little hard to get those charms around the heads of winged zelfs

I've found it easier to get them on by slipping them over the feet, if that's any help?

Vampula, they make little things to go in the headphone jack that you can tie charms to for phones that don't have built in charm loops.
As for my charms I have my Elfa's leaf charm hanging from my MH Venus McFlytrap's belt. I haven't found a use for the other ones yet.

What do I do with Zelf charms? Lose them into the vacuum cleaner, usually.  |

I just keep them in the zelf tin with their combs and box art. |

Oh I'd love to say I do something creative with them, like make them into earrings or bracelet charms (not a bad idea actually..lol), but sadly they just end up in the zelf tin..I do my best to keep them away for the vacuum cleaner though, not always an easy task  |

I actually do wear them, but not them itself XD I use them to cast similar charms in resin where I can mix in all sorts of spectacular looking goodies in the charm, then wear it as a pendant, earrings, charm bracelet, whatever tickles my fancy, really. |

I only have one charm so far from Garny. I have looped it around her one hand so it looks like it does on her packaging picture. Here is a picture of how it is. ^^

I have all of my charms hanging on a necklace chord on my wall I'm really disappointed that they stopped making the charms with them though! They were so cute! Now I just have a box of misc hair clips & brushes that come with them, ugh |

Now I just have a box of misc hair clips & brushes that come with them, ugh I miss the charms too... I don't do anything with mine-- I just keep them in individually labeled plastic baggies along with their combs and pamphlets. But I like your idea of hanging them. |
