I gave in and bought more beads! Wah~

I ended up getting Origami as I originally wanted and another murano. It's called Wave of Dreams and I'm loving how it looks out in the sun. I'm craving a bead by an artisan called Julia Trubitsyna on Etsy at the moment. The bead is basically asteroid B612 from the children's book The Little Prince which I read as a child and reminds me of my dad ^^

I finally got some bead play in. All Trollbeads except for the chestnut (Faerybeads) and the Four Foxes (Eske Storm).

ooooh! I like the four foxes charm you have there! Artisans are so fun to discover (especially to a trollbeads newbie like me, hahaha). Very detailed and pretty (for lack of better word at the moment)

Polished my favorites, decided to share :)

that nautical bracelet! <3 <3 <3

I looove The Little Prince :) Can you post pics of this bead?

I'm also looking for Alice in Wonderland themed beads. I know Trollbeads released one before.
 
I have done SO MUCH DAMAGE in the last week. It has taken me a solid year of getting my Pandora completed. I've had it full a few times but found myself selling some charms for ones I saw better fit. Anyway, I had taken quite the hiatus since and had not had any urges UNTIL...

I got an email about two weeks ago from Trollbeads so I took a gander. I had always admired TB but figured they were too expensive and since there's no retailer nearby I didn't think I'd like not being able to see the beads before purchase.

Anyway, they were having a sale, buy a clasp get the chain free so I said "why the heck not??" I got myself the lace lock. I figured I could just keep it plain, wait a week and buy one charm at a time. I wanted to pace myself because with Pandora, I ran myself broke a few times buying too many charms at once lol

I got my bracelet a few days ago, It's gorgeous. The chain and lock itself is just stunning and I almost feel bad for covering it all up with charms lol The moment I put it on I knew it needed beads. Lots of beads! lol Since getting my bracelet, I've managed to buy:

two spacers
Lucky Dragon
Three Monkeys
Rolling Troll
Azure Bubbles
Blue Desert
Maple Syrup Amber

and one more murano which is listed as Rod on ebay but it's listed wrong so I emailed the seller about it. It's actually a translucent light blue with flowers. I can't seem to find it on the website.

I've seen some blue and amber themed bracelets which were just stunning. One silver that I desperately want still is the Trollbead coin. It just has such presence on all the bracelets I've seen it on. I feel like this is gonna have to be it for this bracelet. I don't think it's gonna hold as many as my Pandora can, expecially since Pandora is so uniform and consistent but I know Trollbeads is more artisan and varying.

Once I get some beads in the mail I'll be taking pictures. :graucho:
Welcome to the Trollbead addiction :D I spent quite a lot on Trollbeads as well the past month :nuts: I bought the Caring Light (heart part of the Mother's Day collection) as well as a lion silver charm and a few others. Some beads are quite tempting. :drool:

@lifestylekitty

here's a link, though the listing for the bead expired today. So this a link to one of the sold ones. It's happened before and the listing is usually put up again. ^^

It's pretty simple in design and I think people won't know what it is unless you tell them.

It's pretty :) Thanks for posting! Now I want a Little Prince themed bracelet. :laugh:

Thanks! I had the same problem when I was introduced to Pandora lol I don't have time to wait for someone who loves me to buy me a "special" charm for special moments. I'd rather just get myself what I want when I want it :p
 
Origami is such an interesting bead!



Rolling Troll is cute and you're right - so interactive!


I want the climbing troll but I need to slow down lol I have about 8 beads on their way in the mail lol. My Pandora is all silver/two-tone with two muranos and some enamel beads so I want my Trollbeads to be mostly color but the silver are just so beautiful and full of life.
 
Just bought a couple lampwork beads from Dorothy Wallace on eBay. I love the core options and there's no additional shipping for additional items. Considering that it's shipping to a different country, $6.50 is not bad and I have to say, the colors she uses are so stunning, probably much more beautiful than Trollbeads. I just want to buy everything of hers!!!

Wave of Dreams is beautiful! Just looked it up online. Reminds me of my azure bubbles, it's pretty but in the sun it just glows! I looked up Julia T on etsy but didn't see any beads for the bracelets, just bear noses and eyes lol
