Mardis Gras Beads, Trollbeads!

February 24th, 2009


Celebrate Mardi Gras with your own beads!  The Trollbead collection has a fun bead titled “Mardis Gras“.   

The Story:  This bead is a tribute to a colourful and festive tradition in the American city of New Orleans. 
What is Mardi Gras?
Also known as “fat Tuesday,” this pre-Lenten festival is celebrated in Roman Catholic countries and communities. In a strict sense, Mardi Gras, or Shrove Tuesday, is celebrated by the French as the last of the three days of Shrovetide and is a time of preparation immediately before Ash Wednesday and the start of the fast of Lent. Mardi Gras is thus the last opportunity for merrymaking and indulgence in food and drink. In practice, the festival is generally celebrated for one full week before Lent. Mardi Gras is marked by spectacular parades featuring floats, pageants, elaborate costumes, masked balls, and people dancing in the streets.  More…


Trollbead Party a HUGE Success!!

February 12th, 2009

Last night we had our 2nd Trollbead Party. We sent out invites to Trollies in the area and had Wine and Chocolates ready for their arrival! At 5pm the store was full; 62 people attended our show last night and 216 beads have new homes on their proud owners bracelets! We had some brand new Trollies starting their 1st bracelets and then we had some who were starting their 3rd bracelet! I talked with a woman who said she was definitely addicted to Trollbeads, I said I think it’s a pretty good addiction to have! :) We had a great time and are already planning for our next Trollbead Party in May.

Spring 2009 Beads Released!

January 17th, 2009

On January 15th, 2009 Trollbeads released 30 new beads!  This is the most exciting and diverse release yet!  We are so excited and anxious to get our hands on the beads and get them on your bracelets.  We have been given all the information on the beads and should have them the first week of February.  They are available for order online right now, and we will ship them out as soon as they arrive to us! 

Check out the entire selection of new beads at www.TrollbeadsNow.com/beads/new-beads.
Here are a few of my favourites:
Buttons:  We use them everyday.  We bring them along wherever we go.  In fact, we cannot live without them – these little ingenious inventions – buttons!


Smiling Cylinder:  A new opening can lead to almost anything.  This Trollbead is bright and happy and smiles at you.  

Strawberries: Bursting with colour and sweetness, 
strawberries will always taste of summer and sunshine.  This handful of berries even has a little golden  ball in the middle.  


Rose: The rose belongs in any romantic tale, and as a gift it brings warmth and symbolizes eternal love.

Antique Flower:  Blue and purple on a dusty green.  Like old-fashioned pansies on a faded photograph, caught in a fragile 
moment long ago. 


Black Flower Mosaic:  Every bead has its own character.  Each one, in a separate piece of an exquisite Persian flower mosaic cast in black with a shiny shadow of dichroic glass. 


Moon Ocean:  Slowly turn this bead and it seems to come alive in your hand.  It is like silver moonlight dancing on a dark ocean.
