Louise, of Trollbeads Gallery in the USA is a long time dealer of Trollbeads but a newcomer to Instagram. I was able to help her a bit get set up and she kindly offered to send me some dangles for bracelets that she makes herself. They have a large core and easily fit on Pandora bracelets as well as Trollbeads chains. She uses beads, real sea glass and sterling silver charms. They are just delightful and you can see her website here. Here are the dangles by themselves.
I put together a bracelet that makes me think of the ocean. This is a real mishmash of brands. Looking left to right we’ve got the new Trollbeads Sunbeam Spacer/ Neverending, True Beadz True Air Linen, Redbalifrog Frangipanis Forever, Trollbeads Traces and Louise’s dangle. The next three beads are the Trollbeads Ice Blue Bud, Redbalifrog Rope and Pandora Disney Elsa Murano.
On this side of the bracelet are the new Trollbeads Beehive Spacer/ Neverending, True Beadz True Air Linen, Redbalifrog Frangipanis Forever, the Trollbeads Blue Moonstone, Louise’s dangle and the Trollbeads Whitecap.
Here is the aqua sea glass dangle up close. The starfish is so cute!
Here is the blue sea glass dangle up close. Love the little sand dollar!
I put them on a Pandora bracelet and really like this look!!
And here is my Friday Fun Beads combo, with the Luna necklace, Trollbeads bangle, Ohm Beads Twisted Bangle and Trollbeads Ring of Change with the Ancient Palace bead. I shall enjoy using these dangles this summer and look forward to also trying them on a bangle. Have a great weekend!
Disclosure: For this blog I may receive some items as promotional samples.
These new pieces by Louise are so pretty and work nicely with your beautiful mix of beads. Blue and turquoise are my most favourite combination and so I enjoy these photos very much!
I had put together my bracelets for today, but now I am inspired to change them!

Thanks Sarah-doesn’t it make you want to go to the Caribbean? And now I’m thinking I need more turquoise in my life. The dangles are a good summer bracelet inspiration for me. I will need to put them with the Troll swim fins and flip flops, of course!

I really like the dangles! I checked the website and saw a lovely one with a turtle. And turtles being among my favourite animals, the dangle went to the top of my wishlist ^^
