MedusA Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Yes. Birthday wishes from me too! You all have some lovely beads. I realise that my bracelet is top heavy on silver charms, so must get some more glass ones. I prefer the Troll ones to Pandora, but might also try some from online sellers too.

MedusA Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_npmv=3&_trksid=m38.l1313&_nkw=chicken+charm+beads&_sacat=See-All-Categories I have to admit I had to have one of those. Also made the mistake of looking at her other glass beads. I now have the chicken, lizard, frog and ladybird beads all heading my way. But the total cost including P&P was under £7 so I'm not too cross at myself. Just a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Just bought a ladybird & a chicken bead I could have a jewellery box full of charms - they are addictive. Better for me than chocolate though! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbaraJ Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 i do like those animal beads but i don't really want to go down the shiny silver route, don't think it will look right. though they would look great with Pandora. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooks Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 say it's really kind of you but that isn't my colour scheme so I would hate to take and not use it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I've added to mine since I posted the pic and now need another bracelet I've added the heart chakra, a green stripe, a translucent with blue dots and a purpley trollstone. A root chakra, throat chakra and pumpkin are on their way, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've ordered quite a few off her and all bar one have arrived quickly. We've assumed it's lost and I am now waiting for the replacement to arrive. I do think there have been "blips" in the post somewhere as a lock from the other dutch seller was posted on the 1st December (postmark date) and took three weeks to arrive.

It took well over 3 weeks for my charms to arrive from Lady dragonfly. I was beginning to think it wasn't going to arrive because other people on here who ordered at the same time as me had their's within a week or so. I'm convinced Lady dragonfly and Leifdani (or whatever s/he's called) are the same seller as they use the same packaging (i.e. a jiffy bag with a loose charm in it ) and are based in the same location, I think. The charms I ordered from the two sellers on the same day arrived through the post on the same day too. I think it's worth the money saved though to put up with the delay.

Lesley Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Orkney Bracelets have some of the silver charms now - I won't order from the dutch people again as they were so slow. I use OB or oozy-le-sooz (FindingsnFings) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedusA Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I have bought one item from Lady Dragonfly and despite being concerned by some of the comments on this thread, it arrived quite quickly. I was very pleased with it. I guess, coming from Holland, the post is variable. I hope you get your charm. *fingers crossed* I'm looking at Orkney Bracelets to get some cheaper glass beads, which I will gradually replace with proper Troll ones as I (or my family) can afford them. Thought I might go for the Starter Bracelet. Can't remember who had one of those. Was it good quality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I did - I bought it for Lauren. You can choose the colour of beads but I think if you contacted Heather you could also choose in a bit more detail. I have some of the cheaper sets and was planning to replace them but they are so beautiful that I probably won't bother changing them! Lauren had the starter set for Christmas - on a leather bracelet - and for her birthday yesterday, we got her a sterling silver bracelet so that she can wear the leather one every day if she wants but she has the silver one to start a bracelet to keep and look after.
