Trollbeads?

AbbysMom · Jan 8, 2010

Anyone else have a trollbead bracelet?

www.trollbeadsus.com

I received one as a gift for Christmas. Do you buy beads that mean something to you or ones that you think are attractive or a little of both?

How nice! I love those, I have a Brighton Bracelet that is similar to that! I wonder if those beads would fit it

I received a Pandora bracelet, which seems pretty similar, for my birthday. I haven't bought any beads yet, although I was given one for Christmas. I was thinking about checking out some of the glass beads myself. What do you think you will do?

Thanks for that link -- I hadn't seen those before! And I love that the "Hallelujah" bead especially.

What do you all think of the "Find Your Pet" bead? Nice concept, but... it makes me think of that scene in "Jurassic Park" when they talked about teratogenic mutations!

Those are really pretty!

But holy cow, those beads are expensive!

I've seen a few that would mean something to me, like the three siblings silver one and a few others. I think I am going to mix those in with a few of the pretty glass ones. I'm thinking pastel colors, but then I see pictures of some of the bolder colors all in a collection and I change my mind.

They are, aren't they?

I have a Pandora one, I think with a lot of the makes you can mix Troll, Simstars and Pandora. I have quite a few beads on mine and it is getting a bit heavy, so maybe I should get another bracelet

I think they are great.

I have a Pandora Bracelet also.

pushylady · Jan 8, 2010

They are nice, and a good idea too.

Yep very similar to a pandora bracelet, I did one for my mother in law for xmas, I got her meaningful beads.. more for the fact she had just lost her mum. I got all the beads off ebay they are under pandora troll beads, they are so cheap, little as 1p each and they are all pretty and the silver is 925 sterling, most were from hong kong and came ver quickly, I was really impressed with the finished bracelet and my mother in law loves it. x

I love mine! I have all kinds of beads.....Trollbeads, Chamilia, Biagi, Pandora and some gorgeous ones that I've found on eBay (just search European beads.) I've started my 2nd one. One of my favorites is the Trollbead "Wisdom" bead (the colorful one in the center of the bracelet below.)

This is what it looked like a year or so ago. I've gotten some new beads, and switched some out. So I had to start another bracelet....right?

The two kitty bead (next to the pearl) is Cleo and Maggie (they love each other.) The single kitty by the star is Lola (away from Cleo & Maggie cuz she terrorizes them!)

Are the Trollbeads compatible with the Pandora bracelet? I liked some of the beads Abbysmom linked to.

The bracelet was a lovely gift, but yes, it could be quite an investment to fill it all up with beads!

I love it!

Now I am thinking I want to go with a blue/green/purple color scheme. I love that wisdom bead, but not the price of it.

The way you have the cat beads set up is great.

I think Pandora will fit on troll, but troll won't fit on pandora.

motoko9 · Jan 13, 2010

I only have three beads at the moment. I have a long way to go! Like Abbysmom, I like the glass beads best, so I may start there.

Pookie-poo, I like your bracelet (I especially like how you've arranged your cats' beads!).

starryeyedtiger · Jan 13, 2010

I've never heard of them before, but they look lovely!! I think I'll have fun looking through the website

AbbysMom · Apr 20, 2010

I was doing a search of threads I started and came across this one and thoguht I would update. I've gone a little bead crazy and now have two completed bracelets.

I did do a purple/blue/green and and one in pastels.

I'd love to see pics of some of your bracelets.

clixpix · Apr 20, 2010

Those are really pretty Karen!

pookie-poo · Apr 20, 2010

Purple and green...my favorite colors! Those are absolutely gorgeous!

I've completed my second one too. I've purchased some gorgeous custom made beads on Etsy...oh yeah, a new addiction!!! I need to see if I can take a photo of my new bracelet.

Those are really nice Karen. You did go crazy on buying beads

Hmmm ... Since I last visited this thread, I've managed to procure one additional bead! I have a long way to go before completing one bracelet, let alone two!

That said, your bracelets are lovely. I especially like the second (pastel) bracelet. You did a nice job coordinating all the colors!
