Beautiful bracelet sassc, very pretty. There seems to be little traffic through this Trollbeads thread. I wonder if the popularity of Trollbeads has waned.

Waned??!?! Not here!! Thanks Minimouse for bringing me back to this thread. I have created a few more bracelets since I last posted. Here are two of them....along with my ridicules trollbead "toybox" :nuts:

On this one I mixed in a few of my favorite Pandora bead...the black w/clear CZ's...I really like the way they look with these colors.

The other I just sorta copied from a website as I really liked the colors and love the way it looks with jeans and along side my two tone Pandora bracelet.

I look forward to checking out everyones creations. I've been out of the loop for too long!!

One thing I'd like to mention for anyone just starting a bracelet/collection....I adored the pearl lock and bought two of them....BOTH have already lost a stone. I was lucky the first time as it was in my jewelry box, so, I was able to crazy glue it back on, but, I wasn't so lucky the second time. For me, the clasps without stones are definately the way to go.

Purse-Ooooh, I am going oooooooooooohhhhhhh!!! What an amazing box of Trollbeads to tinker with. I can just imagine you whiling away the time, putting bracelets together and my oh my, do you have style and great taste. I love every bracelet you put together, you're a great inspiration.

I'm after putting an 'animal print' bracelet together, but there are few Trollbeads to put together to create one, plus the Tiger has become as elusive as the real live tiger, plus it's mega expensive if found. I wish they would issue a revamped tiger for 2010, plus a spotty leopard. They would be instant winners. I keep looking out for an animal print Trollbead bracelet for inspiration, but so far haven't found any.

Thanks minimouse!
Hmmm.....an animal print theme eh? I'll have to play around and see what I can come up with. Did you have any silver beads in mind for your creation? The lion perhaps? I really love the gray wolf and have used that one in several of my bracelets. Some of the retired beads are waaaay too expensive. No way I would pay as much for one bead as I would for an entire bracelet. I say hang in there, they are bound to come out with new ones eventually :) Happy bead hunting!!!

Oh yes, play away and see if you can come up with anything animal-like. The lion would be a good start with grey wolf. I was thinking of dark leopard and fur animal. Brown spots could be thrown in there too and a wonderfully gray dark squirrel.

Just thought to add... clear brown braid, zebra and fur dot. Tortoiseshell and lion would be nice too (but rare).

cncfusion, you've got a great starter bracelet there, it's defininitely a great basis for future additions. Congrats.

I started off in December 2009 with just 5 beads, but my collection is about to increase dramatically, as soon as I receive a package I am expecting in the next week or so. Watch this space!
