Do you remember how you felt the first time

you saw the 'Fall' 2010 release? Still the most beautiful ever for me . . .

I agree, the Fall 2010 release was absolutely stunning (except I only own one bead from the Contemporary kit)
I hope that Trollbeads will continue on the line that the releases keep working so beautifully together!
Fall 2010 and Spring 2011 where made for each others...

Yes! I thought they couldn't beat the Desert or Tuscany kits but they were amazing. I wear my Lakeside beads very often and plan to buy more from that kit (I liked the Contemporary one too). The trend in the last few years has been for a stunnign Autumn release so i am very excited about this one.

Yes, I loved it, (well the Lakeside and the stones, nothing else) wanted them, bought them, recently sold/swapped most of them as they are so not me.

I am gradually learing caution with my buying

The Lakeside Kit was and is perfect. I use all the beads frequently. I was rather disappointed by the Contemporary Kit.

Totally agree, I love the lakeside kit (and am up to seven AB now I think ), but wasn't sold at all on the contemporary kit.

I know, the lakeside kit is among my top3 and I can't believe I don't even have it yet!
But the World Tour as well as hard times for the business I work in resulting in a crappy bonus every month has exhausted my budget.

I remember thinking that the lakeside kit is very troll-ish! It's one of my favourites!

Lakeside Kit was the first kit I had to have and I keep going back for more AB Love it on beige leather bracelet it is just so calming.

Just this past May, I walked into my favorite gift/collectable store, as they were setting up their small TB display table. They were as excited as I was! I was immediately drawn to the kimono kit...then was quoted the price! Well, needless to say I bought three beads of the set and the flower lock. I was given the silver bracelet free. After going home and pouring over the catalog I was given, I realized how special they are and have come up with ways to save money here and there to put into my bead fund. I was able to complete my kimono kit and have bought quite a bit since. The girls in the store always greet me with a huge smile and are more than happy to help, even if I'm just browsing. I've learned a lot from all the comments of you "experienced Trollers" I pour over the catalog to think and rethink what my next purchase will be. I hope what is happening with Pandora, (which I never liked) doesn't happen to TB. They really need to stick to the niche they have and I hope I never loose the love for my first beads!

That was the first time I felt I had to have every single bead in the collection, all at once.

Thanks for your comments - and the universal love of the Lakeside Forest Kit. I thought we should enjoy those feelings while we wait for news of this year's Fall release. Like Molamola, I didn't think the Tuscany kit could be beaten - 'till Fall 2010 came along. Who knows what this year will bring?

I have 6 of the glass and none of the silvers.

I love your bracelet, and it makes me happy again to see it and remember my excitement at seeing the Lakeside Forest kit for the first time irl at my LD...
The first kits I had to have all of were the Desert and Caravan kits, and then Lakeside Forest... so I have huge hopes for this release!!!! Funnily enough those 3 kits still remiain the only kits where I own all beads, except for the prism kit.

Fall 2010 is really my favorite release so far.......
Love the azure bubbles, the indigo flowers, the tiger eye and the drifting seeds They are all in my collection and not just one.......Haha

The Azure bubbles is still my favourite bead. I have 3, but would love more! Your combo is gorgeous!!!!!!!
