How It All Began - Show your very first beads

Natalyk, I love how your collection evolved and I hope you will find the love again - those truly are beautiful beads   

Ah, Strike, I totally understand why you kept your garden bracelet intakt so long, it is a true beauty!   

Natalyk, those colours are wonderful together, a bit coordinated and yet totally not (sorry, cannot describe it better but love it)

Retiredk9racer, you surely do not to things halfheartedly, do you
Those are wonderful first creations!

These were my very first beads, bought online from TB HQ Denmark September 2007

I love this kit sooo much - fabulous choice Joolz   My first beads were bought from TB HQ aswell   

First time around...that was in 2009 i bought myself a lether bracelet with an artic blue, a blue flower an a blue dillo...yep i was (and still am) nuts about blue. I just went to thed jewelers with my daughter planning on buying something simple...we both ended up buying tb...after my break  with tb...stracecase got me started me off with an artisan blue flower, still have that one...so now it's my second time around...the first tb i bought a bangle with a few beads of te beachkit


Second time arround

My trollbeads collection started because of my collection of fairies. My first purchase was the fairy fantasy necklace about 6 years ago.

I start getting Trollbeads in 2006 or 2007 and my first bracelet was with the Big Fish Lock, Beach treasure and Little princess, I've always loved their silver and perhaps this was why my first glass bead was Silvermountain.

In the beginning Trollbeads was something I got for birthday and Christmas, and therefore the collection was growing very very slowly the first years.

It is long past, so now I "invest" as often as I want and can afford.

My first completed bracelet was my "woodland" bracelet, which took me about a year to complete, but which stayed together for quite a while, probably until about six months ago. It was where my organic bubbles lived. This is the last version, not the first   

In love...

These are all such wonderful bracelets! Here's my first. Took two years to complete.

Ah, yes, the fairies, Mdellano For me it is dragons

This sounds like a lovely sea themed bracelet, Klokke!   

Vonnewe, they say three is a charm, but I might change that to two (but I am partial to the wonderful rocky beach kit ).

Chuck, welcome back! I had not read from you in quite a while and I hope all is well with you and your folks! Your bracelet looks wonderfully colourful

Hiya Trollperle!  Yes, everyone is doing well! It's been a long time since I've been on the forum and I am very glad to be back! Life is very busy here but, I'll try and post more frequently! Thanks for the warm welcome and thoughts!

For your first bead the Organic Bubbles in the woodlands green colors was beautiful.  Where I shop, that would have been an unusual color for the bead.  Around here they came in a mix of blues and browns, sometimes with a touch of purple.
The woodland bracelet that you ultimately created was beautiful.  Love the fern and gnome silvers on it.

I agree! I recently put together a green bracelet in that tone. That is my kind of green.
