During the Perlen sale I bought the Redbalifrog Black Leather Strap. I have the Tan Leather Strap Bracelet and really like it. They are not expensive but you do need to use a lock (RBF or Troll will work) with them. Here I’ve got Geckos, Sunflower and Calla Lily on it.
I also did buy the Trollbeads Honey Dawn specifically to go with the Bumblebee Spacer (out May 13). I’ve wanted one for years! Such a cool bead!
I tried it on a bangle with the bee.
But then the next day I used the Honey Dawn to balance out the Gold Silver Trace. I’m quite excited to have these yellow beads and I know I will get a lot of use out of them. Left to right are Black Dot, Black Silk, Gold Silver Trace, Milan, Honey Dawn, Neptune’s Promise and White Steel.
Here’s the whole combo, alongside the Ohm Beads Twisted Bangle. I hope others are starting to receive their Perlen sale purchases! π
Beautiful pictures!
I imagine we will be seeing lots of bee themed bracelets this summer.

Thanks again for a beautiful and interesting post. Golden Dawn is so beautiful. I love the whole bangle with every single bead. I also love that the eye can focus and appreciate each one for its beauty. Once my Troll bangle arrives, I will have a heyday thanks to all of your inspiring arrangements and beads .

I think Trisha might be waiting for something too, although I’m not positive.

The RBF leather bracelets are lovely and are loitering on my wish list! I think I prefer the black to the tan version.
I have honey dawn and the other one from that kit that I can’t remember the name of which is same design but blue. I am just about to find poor Milan and I am hoping it will go with these two glass beads to make a nice bangle combo. All shall be revealed on IG tomorrow π
