Spring and a Hello to you all!

Hi there, some of you might know me from other Bead forum.
I was long undicded if I should register here, (another password I have to remember LOL!) but as I see so many familiar names (that I really miss talking to) here..

For the ones who dont know me: I`m from northern germany, sometimes a bit "poisonous". I started collecting Trollbeads (and others) in 2009 or so (but very slow: my collection is not that big) and love to make glass and silver beads myself.

AND I come bearing pictures:
Usually I love winter and autumn, but I also like to see the renewal of nature and the bursting colors of spring, so at the weekend I was busy making (trying to) make beads that look like spring flowers:
from the lock:
-silverclay in retired TB style
-retired Smilies TB
-Amethyst pumpkin (etsy)
-lucky knot TB
-Glass with steelwool
-Holland tulip TB
-glass to look like grape hyacinth
-fish nor bird TB
-pearl TB
-Maja & Digger Redbalifrog
-glass to look like white and orange narcissus
-little gold snake (new no name bead. I LOVE my snake-y)
-pearl TB
-Prism TB
-Piccolo bead
-glass
-Bee on hive TB
-glass to look like a pansy
-symbols TB

Hey Poison Ivy!! So glad to see you here!! I have been wanting to see some of your creations! It is really fun here as we can show any beads at all, and ask questions about other than TB beads. You will like it!!

Hugs!
Trolldog

Did you make those glass beads?

They are really lovely, I'm a huge fan of artisan glass beads

@Trolldog: Hi! I`m sure I`ll love this free forum, just seen the bower beads pictures and it really helps so much in seeing the beads together with TB. I think I`m in love!

@Troglodyte: Thank you! Yes I make glass beads since 3 years now (selftought, so some of the technic I don`t know). I make them at the garage with a camping gas torch. ..
