Clockwise: Tree lock and chain; Black Silk; Origami; Maple Syrup Amber; Cherry Blossoms; Picasso Jasper; Two Sides to Everything; Milan; Hydrangea.



My first mini bracelet, with the non-troll bead blacked out ('twas for another forum):



Chamilia bracelet and locks (clips), various beads.
Chamilia leaf lock, Trollbeads Symbols, Chamilia Open Heart and Helping Hands, Belk Silverworks gold-over-strlg heart, Belk Silverworks scrolled cube, Chamilia swirls lock. Silverworks is the house brand of the Belk department store chain in the southeast of the USA.





I have made others with fewer beads, maybe I'll get some time to snap photos later today.

These are great LJ. I like mini bracelets too. Off to find some pics.

Here are a few of mine:

LindaJo and Beadgirl,
thank you for the pictures !!

Just a quick question,
trollbeads doesn't have much choice in stoppers,do they?
What a shame,would love some other ones.
Beadgirl,in your last photo,is that the viking bead,the third from the left??
I really love that one !!!! And is that a lotus lock from RBF ? Lovely.

And thank you LindaJo for this thread !!!!

Thanks Linda for this thread,
until recently I never did mini-bracelets, now I love them, your's is beautiful and the 3 little beads are wonderful, I wonder if they are small beads or stoppers..

Not much choice in stoppers. You can get more decorative ones from Tedora and other brands

Yes to Bead of the Viking and the Lotus lock.

@Catsworld: the three little ribbed beads with the Chinese silvers? Yes, they are stoppers, department store brand.

Thank you LindaJo, those stoppers are great! TB should really do another kind of stoppers, slightly more decorative, like your stoppers!

It would be wonderful if TB came up with more interesting stoppers. Only thing is I think $20US for the butt plain ones they have now is a rather unconscionable gouging. If they had the expense of new designs plus what I imagine would be higher production costs one shudders to think what they'd be charging for some silicone and probably less silver than it would be easy to get a weight on.

I sometimes really like them to show off special beads or when I just want something simple. Here's one I made for my wave bead:



Also when I wear another bracelet than TB, I also like to add mini combos!

Here's my current crop of mini bracelets or half bracelets.

The two Troll bracelets I change up frequently, but it's usually neutral beads. Normally I have even fewer beads on them. Some of the beads on the second bracelet are non-Troll, including the stoppers.
The Chamilia bracelet I do wear fairly often, but almost never change. The center bead is a Chamilia "Give Back" bead called Helping Hands & Open Hearts. Part of the proceeds go to the American Red Cross, initially they went to relief efforts for hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.
The Pandora bracelet has only been worn twice! The dangle tulip charm tends to get caught and not dangle freely, and the safety chain clips screw off their stations as the bracelet rolls around on your wrist.

Some great bracelets in there! Loving them all

Lovely bracelets everyone. I love minibracelets and had my Greyhound Lock fixed to a short chain specifically so I could use it for mini combos.

Mine are all in my Gallery but here are some of my favourites:

Those are all great, Molamola! I especially like the ones that are truly "mini", with just a few beads.

Viking beads moving up the wish list.

Wonderful mini-combos!

I had a dream about snow last night, so I came up with this:

Wintertroll,
I love the pink lace agats (hope i'm right??) !!!! Especially the left one

Love all the Mini Bracelets - I think they are really pretty.

Your mini bracelets are gorgeous!!! I'm inspired!! Great thread!!!

Wintertroll the CLAs look fantastic with the Snowflake Ibsidians.

It's lovely to see everyone's mini bracelets.

I started wearing minimalist bracelets when I didn't have many beads but I still feel comfortable selecting beads for a mini bracelet.


I'll show you one taken last year ( with the ring ) and the other two are bracelets I currently enjoy wearing with new holiday beads included.

Everyone's mini bracelet's are so beautiful. I always think I have to fill up the chain. I've learned something new. Thanks

so many beautiful bracelets,

@MolaMola,
very clever to keep a single bead in place with stoppers, I need more stoppers...
