South Africa beads

The previous week I had not been even considering whether the Trollbeads Spring Release could excite me for only a bit, so I have been drawn to some OOAKs.

Now when the spring release 'hit' me and I fell in love with so many beads, I almost felt 'stupid' for spending on OOAKs when I likely wanted to direct funds to the spring release beads. But on receiving my ordered OOAKs I realized why I'd ordered them in the first place.

I'd been dreaming about... South Africa!
And I always love a bright colored jade when I can get to it at retail price.

The one on the left is my favourite. Those jade beads are so vibrant! Definitely not stupid at all

Fabulous, I especially love the one in the middle.

Well it will brighten everyone's day that courtesy of a close friend I will have pre-release pictures to share & also the info to order from a jewellery shop in SA. They are currently setting up their Paypal account. I'll let everyone know the details soon. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Lovely ooaks
The one on the far left looks like an old version or variety of Dark Leopard to me.
Saw one like this at my LD's beeing sold as Dark Leo.

It's important, that our beads make us happy - no matter, if they are ooak or production

Mwah ha ha! I wish I could be that mean, but the dealer doesn't even know yet but will forward information as soon as they know, which could be any day now. I'm on standby!

Wow Smaug! definatly african style with our colourful culture there
A great mix of stunning beads

And Rainyday please keep me informed or PM me as Im desperate for this release! I dont want to get my family there to buy and send the beads to me as I know they would have a fit at the prices
So I will have to do it alone (with a little help from my friends)

How long do we have to wait!!!!!!!

I'm very curious as well! As a matter of fact, today and this weekend our 'newly assigned SA WTB reporter'... is off to some TB retailers/jewelers in her surroundings to find out more about pictures, beads, prices etc. I hope, expect some news by monday... I do know that the South Africa World Tour beads release will be launched by the end of February and will be available early March.

If there are members who would not mind to order 'unseen' I can do a combined 'order' from SA and then forward, to save on shipping costs. My SA LD is putting in orders before the release sells out. I have no idea about prices, but my guess is it will be around € 170,- based on previous releases and the price increase.

So if anyone is interested to order along with me, let me know.
I'll open a thread to put in orders.

me!! I'm collecting all the WT beads!!
