The Redbalifrog Celestial Bodies Collection is just perfect for anyone who loves science fiction, like me. I grew up watching Star Trek, Star Wars, the X Files and reading books by Ray Bradbury, among others. The absolute highlight for me is the Alien Skull ($44 USD). I actually gasped when I first saw it. Check out the incredible detail on the teeth and the top of the skull.
What is even cooler is the back with the brain and the neck! I have posted a video showing all these beads on IGTV (the new Instagram TV platform).
My next favourite is the Star Sputnik. ($37 USD)
Keeping with the space theme is this retro Rocket Ship ($33 USD). It’s a good size for either a necklace or a bracelet.
Next up is the Earth bead ($37 USD) which I also really love. This is a great one for anyone who loves to travel and I shall take it with my on my trip. I’m very excited to get to meet up with Amanda of Redbalifrog in Australia in August!
The Sun & Moon Kiss bead is so beautiful. ($44 USD)
There are two empty spacers, in brass ($16.50 USD) and silver ($26 USD). These are spacers, not stoppers and called empty as there is no rubber inside them. I love how plain they are and look forward to seeing how people use them.
The two locks have a beautiful, serene face hand carved of bone. There is the Moon Face Lock in Silver ($65 USD) and one in Brass ($46 USD). They are the same on both sides.
Lastly, there is an elegant Mother Universe Pendant ($46 USD) , hand carved of bone with silver at either end. This striking design will look beautiful hanging from a silver chain.
So, this collection gets a big WOW from me, especially that Alien Skull! Here are a few more photos and please let me know what you think of these pieces!

Hi Martha, For me it has to be the Rocket Ship. Out of all the Sci-Fi shows X Files was my favorite. Still is. I have watched every episode…. repeatedly. I Want To Believe.

This is my favorite rbf release to date ( or at least since I have been collecting) so fun and so “make-believe” the Sputnik and sun/moon are my faves but I really would wear any of the pieces ( except the pendant only because of its size but it is very cool in its on right ) love your full bracelet design- those darker glass compliment the theme very well 👍😘👽💫

Hi Alex! It really is a perfect collection for space theme lovers. The Sun/Moon one is so beautiful, especially how their faces are gently meeting for a kiss. It’s a very romantic bead, I think.

Hi Julia! I was wondering if you’d like the Star Sputnik design as it makes me think of Russian satellites! (I assume this is the Russian Julia commenting! 😅)

I love what you did with the dark blue TrueBeadz and the new Celestial body beads. Those are all discontinued colors of glass though, right ? I wouldn’t be able to get them anymore?

Yeah, you can’t really buy these exact beads. The three grey ones were prototypes, I believe and the Stormy Heavens Air and Blossoms are retired. But the Stormy Heavens Touch ones are still being made and sent out to retailers, but they get snapped up really quickly, I think.

Yes, the three grey ones were one-offs and the others are from the Stormy Heavens colour line.
