Trollbead addiction

Hello everyone! I'm holding out on the copper as maybe they'll release some more complicated designs later on *crosses fingers*

I now have a peacock unique! Yay! I also have two kimono beads flanking my silver Origami as they remind me of the designs normally found on origami paper. I also have Luminous Delight which is very pretty especially in sunlight.

My other brand beads are lazing in the back at the moment though I'm not particularly fussy about mixing. Just wanted a fluid look right now :>

The sea turtle and the little wooden idol are from Baguio, which is a place in the Philippines. Though they're on my bracelet at the moment because I think they fit the troll aesthetic :)

I'm excited about the city beads collection coming out this month! Is anyone ordering any of the beads?

Hello fellow jewelry lovers

This is my first post and I have to apologize, but I have a quite urgent matter and information I need to get. The next retail store is 600km away from my current location, and I can't find any information online so I thought I would go ask the experts who have a lot of personal experience with troll beads.

Currently I am working on handcrafting a bracelet for someone special, which I want to be used as host for a future trollbead collection.
So the question I have is: Can anyone tell me (as exact as possible) the inner diameter of beads like http://www.trollbeads.com/global/en-us/products/beads/51739(base_usd) or http://www.trollbeads.com/global/en-us/products/beads/11526(base_usd) , or the diameter of standard bracelets that go through those beads?

Really hoping to get an answer here, thanks in advance!

So excited for the city beads as well.

I tried clicking on the links above but got a server error for both. You should just buy a single bead and that way you can measure it yourself with a jeweler's calipers and test it on the bracelet and the end caps that you're making, making sure the bead slides easily, but yet isn't too loose on the chain, that sort of thing. A single bead shouldn't set you back that much and it's really important to test beads on the bracelet you're fashioning.

I think the trollbeads cores are around 4mm or so. There's a store on Etsy called TheGlassAttic and they make imitations of Trollbeads' chains and locks and it says that their foxtail chain is 3mm thick so somewhere around that size I'd think
 
Well it's not yet here in the U.S. My local boutique sent an email about it for tomorrow. I think I might go. I've been really interested to check out the copper items.

It's supposed to be today! However, I would have to drive for almost 4 hours before reaching a store. I'm not that addicted ;)

I've received my first trollbeads bracelet (the good luck starter kit), but it's wrapped for my birthday and I haven't seen it!

But I think when she posted that it was already June 6th in Europe, but not in North America yet. :)

My boutique is about 20 min away. I may pop in.
