Oh, Hawaii! Which island? I long to go back to Maui (it would be our third trip). Hopefully, we can make it in 2009 or 2010 and get to Kauai as well. How lucky to spend that much time in paradise!

I am working on filling my first trollbead bracelet. So far, I have 11 beads, a mix of glass and silver. It's an ocean theme with blues and greens and sea critters to remind me of the time I spent growing up in Hawaii. :smile1: I love seeing and hearing about everyone else's love for trollbeads and pandora. I received my most recent purchase (a glass bead) in the mail today. It looks like it has an internal crack in it. I can't feel it on the outside, but can see it showing through from the inside. Has anyone one else ever been sent a bead like this or seen one? I'm assuming it's a flaw and am thinking I should send it back for an exchange. What do you think?

I would definitely return it. It probably is a crack, and it might get worse, but by then it may be too late to return it. If the second one you get is the same, you'll know it was supposed to be like that.

SoonerOrLater, I lived on Oahu but visited all the islands at one point or another. Hawaii is truly a paradise and such a fun place to live as a kid. I haven't been back since we moved away, I'm hoping to go in a few years with my husband and kids. I'd love to show them all my old stomping grounds!

Mimi Kim, thanks for the advice. I do plan to exchange the glass bead that looks like it's cracked. You're right, if the one I get back looks the same, I'll know that's how it's supposed to look! I haven't gotten around to doing it yet, I had the flu last week. :sad: It may be a few days before I get to the post office as one of the kids has it now too.

I think my next purchases for my Troll bracelet are going to be the jellyfish and treasures bead. Anyone have those? How do you like them?

:okay:Very nice trollbeads you have, girls.
I just started my collection with these 6 Trollbeads...

I want to collect them for a bracelet but before I get all the beads I like, I wear them on a necklace. The silver A and silver S are the initials of my and my :heart:boyfriend:heart: And I like the Murano Beads most of all....

The silver wing on my necklace is a seperate pendant and has nothing to do with the beads but it looks very nice with the beads...don't you think :shame:

Taupy, your beads are beautiful! I love the colors. I am collecting all white beads now, I also have a set of 5 blue beads, of course I have the silver ones too. I thought I would switch off the glass beads once in a while to change the look of my bracelet.

Hi Lakritze, next to it is the Lavender Prism. On the other end of my bracelet I have a Pink Prism :) But I would love to have a Rose Quartz some day. I've only seen it on pictures but it seems to be a very pale and soft pink.

Thank you, vickyprinzessin. Wow, the lavender prism is light. Now that I know I can see a hint of purple.

I love rose quarz and amethyst together, but I guess I would have to see both stones in person to pick one I really like.
