Maybe all the beads are meant to be edible? The green glass ones could be mint flavoured.

Kind of an expency treat!!!

by Brightonbelle Tue Jan 17, 2012 11:09 pm

The onyx are definitely made of liquorice.

by MinnNorsk Tue Jan 17, 2012 11:10 pm

Well, then, those are for me...I LOVE licorice!!!

Brightonbelle, are you the person who helped me get my silver dillo on Macrow???

by Brightonbelle Tue Jan 17, 2012 11:13 pm

??? I can't remember. I walked off in a sulk part way through the ordering process.

The green beads are clearly a reference to absinthe drinking.

Is it an icecream phoenix?

Please, Smaug....you must post pics when you get them or we will all be insane by the time the release arrives! Love

You know we are so grateful for the sneaky pics and scoops!

by Brightonbelle Tue Jan 17, 2012 11:26 pm

Are you questioning my insanity?

by kitsunegrl Tue Jan 17, 2012 11:28 pm

No, just mine...I feel something slipping away and being replaced by bead madness again.

I might need ice cream AND cake. And a chocolate bunny. Absinthe to wash it all down in a flowery tea cup.

And liquorice onyx to purge your system afterwards.

I sure hope that green flower pendant bead is the same green as the Austria WT flower—I bought several of that one and can see them flanking a matching pendant bead on a necklace!!! Love that minty green!!! cyclops

Oh my, I join the others, I'm in trouble! The ornate rabbit is a must, the armadillo, and..............those wonderful silver barrel beads. Sigh, I best be saving already!

Is one of the beads a Griffin?

by trollmoll Wed Jan 18, 2012 3:38 am

Phoenixes, bunny rabbits, egg-like ovals and bundt cake pans? There is some connection to Easter, I suppose....

I just bought the swiss watch world tour bead which will go swimmingly beside a cute bunny in an Alice in wonderland bracelet. Now if only I could get my hands on a retired spade...
