Congrats on passing your exams.<br /><br />I sympathise with being allergic to many metals, my mum is also and she can wear so few pieces of jewellery. I guess if you know which ones you are allergic to you could always ask the jewellery brand if they use any of those in their pieces? <br /><br />If you see anything you like on my blog then please ask the question and I will see if I can get any information for you.<br /><br />Mars xxMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-87826136930187015412014-04-28T09:18:23.361+01:002014-04-28T09:18:23.361+01:00as a fellow taffy I too love a good dragon - and I...as a fellow taffy I too love a good dragon - and Ivor for that matter:) have a dragons head which I took into exams with me - not that I believe in these good luck talismans - however i did pass!:) had a few bits during the years but am allergic to many metals - have been looking at the the non metal ones lately and wondering whether. . . .alberta rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132420168908365099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-7065279637531667572014-04-10T12:53:54.506+01:002014-04-10T12:53:54.506+01:00I love dragons (you can't tell can you?), and ...I love dragons (you can't tell can you?), and despite being a fan I didn't actually recognise him as Smaug due to the fact my brain just disengages from everything when I watch films, especially hte bit that links up to memory!

Now, later on in my collecting I'm starting to do that more, not a permanent theme but ideas I have for specific bracelets, there's one coming up tomorrow but I shan't say anymore as it won't publish until the 9th April, there's also another one later on in the alphabet.<br /><br />Ever since the bangle has come along that has helped with my lost beads, but I have done the same with leathers too, I quite like a brightly coloured mish mash of beads on those! (Especially if I'm just in jeans and a black jumper).<br /><br />The only issue I have with making and breaking all the time is the amount of storage needed for the beads... it's easier to store bracelets than beads so I have the opposite problem to most people I know. <br /><br />Mars xxMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-60405514569992802162014-04-08T08:06:44.672+01:002014-04-08T08:06:44.672+01:00I have been collecting since 2011 ... first bracel...I have been collecting since 2011 ... first bracelet a clasp and bracelet found in Italy ... and it took me a year to find a retailer here in France :(<br /><br />And then the terrible addiction started !!! no way to stop ! I have already 7 bracelet two leathers and one long pendant necklace....<br /><br />It seems that I can't manage to change beads on a blet once I've found the right place ... my prob was what to do if I find a bead I love, which can't fit with a theme so I dedicate a leather to the lost ones ... very eclectic but it doesn't hurt my obsession of each bead matching the others with a special idea and theme !!!

Thanks for stopping by, another Dragon fan \o/ yay!<br /><br />I love Naughty Dragon, I've been wearing him on a leather but I've finally been able to get a silver Troll necklace to put him on in a recent sale. He was on my wish list for a very long time before I picked him up.<br /><br />Baby Dragon is really lovely, and very versatile, I love him on a bracelet as much as using as a splitter bead, have also seen him look lovely on a leather but I haven't quite mastered that effect myself yet!<br /><br />How long have you been collecting Troll?<br /><br />Mars xxMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02215135884256731783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-12097932347373508642014-04-07T07:25:20.118+01:002014-04-07T07:25:20.118+01:00I do love Dragons... and now I think I do need Bab...I do love Dragons... and now I think I do need Baby dragon :D<br />I have a naughty Dragon... who is my special companion Hub offered me last year for Valentines ;) and I wear it on a bangle (it really works!) with twon onyx on each side and the special WT Hong Kong Dragon and Luck !!!Patounettenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-31022149964136352852014-04-05T09:55:06.989+01:002014-04-05T09:55:06.989+01:00Thanks Alex!

Claire's is great; although I'm happiest browsing jewellers I love going into Claire's to see what they have :) I think that's why I like Trollbeads so much, they just translate a lot of Claire's stuff into jewellery that actually has silver in it :D <br /><br />I don't think my taste/style of jewellery has changed that much, just that I've substituted the materials now I'm older and can afford to (and perhaps not leading such a reckless social life where I'd lose/damage it is another key point).<br /><br />I was so pleased to come visit you on the day we'd chosen the same theme, it seems quite a few of us are Dragon fans and not just because D was yesterday's letter ;)<br /><br />Mars xxMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-39918942439170461612014-04-05T02:45:45.779+01:002014-04-05T02:45:45.779+01:00i am infinitely jealous of your dragon beads!!!

Naughty Dragon is just great... because of the A to Z challenge I didn't want to show the other side but I'm sure if folk are curious they'll be able to find out why.<br /><br />I think Faerybeads are on a lot of people's wishlists, it's just not something I can justify at the moment, the time is creeping closer for my boilers to get the treatment, and my car is starting to develop some fatal looking flaws at the moment so I've got a weather eye on the future!<br /><br />Mars xxMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.com
