Trollbeads Spring 2012 release sneak peek - all pics!

BeadThrilled wrote:So is it a griffin (wings, paws and lion's tail) or a phoenix (wings and 'peacock' tail only)?

I think it looks more like a griffin than a phoenix (although they are making it hard to tell). The griffin walks on four legs when not flying and the phoenix is more bird-like all the time.

And thanks again Sita and Sherlock. Your sneak peeks make BT the place to be (sorry you had trouble with people posting your pics on fb)

Charles--you made me laugh cause the first thing I thought was "is that my mom's tupperware jello mold"?

I love the song, Hayseed!

BeadWrangler was a title I made up myself, it has nothing to do with the number of posts. More with using various brands of beads together, not just Troll. So you can't be a beadwrangler if you're a Trollbeads purist.
I had to meet a challenge from Admin first, though. Something about posting a bracelet with at least 5 different brands of beads on it. I'll try and find that challenge post again tomorrow, I'm not coming up with it quickly tonight.[/quote]

Oh, how clever of you, LindaJo!!! Well, I would love to be a BeadWrangler someday! I'll have to take a look and see just how many different kinds of beads I have. I love TBs and they're what got me started, but I can't resist a cool bead, so have several artisans' beads and RBF for sure and lots of Macrow's stones.

If you can find a challenge for me to enter the elite ranks of BeadWranglers, I'll sure do my darndest! Yippie ai yay!!! [hayseed's whip cracks the air—HYAH!]

Thanks so much for the pictures...But where is the silver cored ruby?

So do I.

If LindaJo doesn't object I'm happy to appoint you BeadWrangler too

Oh, I wouldn't want to detract from the honor of "BeadWrangler" enjoyed by all the others who have posted THOUSANDS of times. I'll humbly wait my turn.

But in anticipation of the day, however far off, when I too will be bestowed with the honorable title BeadWrangler, I have composed my beadwranglin' theme song (sung to the theme of the old US TV show "Rawhide" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSHr4ubuD64 ):

Buyin', buyin', buyin'
Though my hubby's sighin'
Keep them new beads comin'—MORE BEADS!

Through checks and cash and cc's,
Hell-bent for new beads,
Wishin' my bank account was huge!
All the things I'm missin'—
Dinners out, new clothes, and kissin'—
Will ne'er be mine until I stop buyin'!

Wrap 'em up, ship 'em here!
Ship 'em here, wrap 'em up!
Wrap 'em up, ship 'em here! MORE BEADS!

Put 'em on, show 'em off!
Show 'em off, put 'em on!
Put 'em on, show 'em off—MORE BEADS!!! MORE BEADS!!!

....and now you record it and post a video on YouTube please.

Wow! I will buy the cream glass beads - I absolutely loooooooooooooove them!

The rose in the last pic, is it for the earhooks, too?

Thank you for the pics.
I love the most of them...
Poor piggy bank

I was indeed, like LindaJo mentioned, thinking up a challenge but this admission request pleased very much too. Request granted!

Indeed...


And the smokey quartz earrings:

Thank you for the nice pics and the infos for the new collektion

heartfelt thanks for the great pictures - really great beads are

You know what, I never actually said.....



These are wonderful photos, it's brilliant to see them all and to plan purchases before the price increase!

Thanks for the pictures!! I need a new bracelet now. Lots of beautiful silver beads and I'm sure I won't be able to resist the glass. How about the large flower on the bottom picture? Is it a bead or something for earrings? I would love it to be a bead.

Ah this spring release is very nice.. I like the pendants, I cannot help but feel that TB marketing is indeed listening and reading some of our forums as the designs they come up with are designs that people been oooing and aaing about from other individual artists.. in fact i looked at one bead honestly thinking of certain artists.. i love the little creature, griffin? phoenix? and especially like the pastel colours.. with the demise of companies such as Peacocks in the UK, Kodak worldwide , we have to take note that large companies are hurting so when prices go up, its the sheer pressure of economy. Yes prices are out rageous at times but big, small dealers, companies they are all scrambling for survival. So well done for giving us a sneak peak, I think TB has done well this time. when are these coming out? I missed that bit.. been so busy at home.. Thanks once more for preview much appreciated!

As the previous pictures ended up reposted on many facebook groups despite the watermark, these series will be shared with the core group of members first...

There you go
