Do you have a serious love for these little suckers?

It can be addictive and expensive. More so if you are into collecting any of the all gold ones.

Sometimes it’s good to be a beader to come up with some alternatives. It’s great if you are a glass artist and can make some of your own lampwork beads. Alas, I am not. But I do appreciate a beautiful bead.

Do you have a favorite local shop or do you buy online (or online too.)
I’m an equal opportunity beader. I collect the beads I like, regardless of brand. I shop online and locally. Haven’t yet found any when I vacationed, but it would be a good excuse to add another one.

Do you have bracelet(s) only? or necklace (s)?

Do you tend to put them together and then leave them? or do you move them around?
I put mine together how I like, then start another one. I do re-do them if I have a great idea.

OTOH, I know folks who put theirs together every morning for their outfit and have loads of beads in a tray that they pick and choose from. I can’t imagine doing that! We all could use ideas for storage.

Good news!
I started a yahoogroup as a resource for all of us.

It is not affiliated with any one brand or any store. I’m reluctant to talk about other brands in a store or forum that sells another brand. Here, you can talk about them all.

If you are a store owner, you are welcome to list your store in our files. Tell us what is special about it — and if you do online business.

If you are a customer who particularly loves your store, be sure to tell us.

If you are a lampwork artist or a silver bead artist, tell us about your products!

Let us know any good ideas or design ideas that you have. You can post pictures in the photo section.

Go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Addicted2Trollbeadsandmore/ and sign up. I hope to see you there!
