MedusA Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 My Troll bracelet now has a collection of genuine Trollbeads (silver Chicken and Crab, glass Earth and Aquarium Pastel ones, plus the silver Hare and Tortoise from ebay). I also have some genuine Pandora beads (Bunny, Ghost, Toadstool). I'm hoping to get some more for Christmas (I have my fingers crossed for the beautiful silver christmas tree with gold star from Pandora). It's filling up beautifully and I love it to bits.

jomaxsmith Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 I bought my bracelet and some charms in a jewellers in Letchworth - they had quite a good selection. I'm about to launch a missing item dispute with one of the Dutch sellers - one of my charms arrived and the other didn't and he's not answering my emails. I've given it over a week since the other one arrived in case he had put the other one in a separate envelope but still no joy. What a pain Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 I just happened to buy to the turquoise ribbon one today! I didn't buy it on Sunday because the ones they had in the shop were all tiny beads but this seller had one that was chunky so I bought it. The shop said they have been coming in all sizes but they only had the tiny ones, which I thought were too small. No problem now though.. My son really wanted this one for me for our birthstone, so he'll be over the moon later when I tell him. thanks MedusA! I love them and keep looking at it thinking how beautifull it is!.

Cooks Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Hello my name is Lynsey and I am a troll bracelet addict....... I've just bought a lime green prism to add to the others... in my defence it was in my selection on sunday that I trimmed down to not spend too much but then got told I should have bought a few more off DH so I am only doing what I am told... I think it's retail therapy ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 LOL's Lynsey I've got that one and it's so pretty. Using MY logic I saved £290 on the ebay buys so I've that to spend on normal price ones Kidding as hubby would kill me I think-lol There's also some USA sellers of authentic glass beads that are quite cheap. Might have a bid on those if I can remember my sniper details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 that's a HUGE saving you've made, I haven't add my saving up, I dread to think now really. I saw this on Sunday and knew it would be one I wanted, so it was fate when I saw it cheaper today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jomaxsmith Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 My Tupilak bead arrived from the Netherlands today (I launched a Paypal dispute for its non arrival yesterday ) and my bracelet is now ready to be sent off to Father Christmas. Photo here http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1095090&l=ce67f&id=663092293 My beads are from http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Artisan-Dichroic-by-GeeJayC_W0QQssPageNameZstrkQ3amefsxQ3asstQQtZkm and the charms are from the two Dutch ebay sellers and also from an actual UK high street jewellers!

Cooks Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 thanks Anne , I am so tempted when I see them .. I might have to buy a necklace at this rate, never mind a bracelet! I am wondering how my lime green prism will look now Suspicious daughter eh?? cant think why, you've not been up to anything at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Well I bought a cheap bracelet from China with beads. It was listed as sterling silver bracelet - I knew the beads wouldn't be. It came today & it's not silver at all. It's too small for my mum & I can't even salvage the beads without cutting the bracelet up. I can see me offering it on the free to good home I think. Anyway that will teach me. I have now ordered a made to measure one from Orkney bracelets, along with some beads. A bit more than I wanted to spend, as already got mums main prezzie, but hey! you only get one mum & she's worth it! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
