Also helps me to see if I'm missing a bead whether or not it's already on a bracelet or not!<br /><br />I've used my tiny skewers from the wooden display trays in the side compartments as I didn't want loose beads... I really do like "seeing" everything at once/at a glance. Which is great because I can take the top layer of bracelets out and then I have 2 surfaces of beads, 1 horizontal and 1 vertical - this in itself is just perfect!<br /><br />Yeah rubber O-rings are go, I did think they were being a bit cheap, as 24 o-rings (3 per rod) included in your package would be pennies but would mean so much to the customers... if they take me up on that idea Trollbeads would be welcome to send me my commission payment in beads :) O-ring in the middle is the easy way to solve this without loosing any precious bead space... I *love* those long rods <3<br /><br />If this had been a more expensive case I might have hesitated, but after seeing how much use the white one was - the extra £25 for this was a no-brainer for me because I know how I like to organise my beads - but I totally get and also agree with that's at least 4 more beads you could have.<br /><br />Mars xxMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-4480485961281000492015-09-22T07:17:50.208+01:002015-09-22T07:17:50.208+01:00Thank you, I did umm and ahh about whether to put ...Thank you, I did umm and ahh about whether to put bigger pics up of my collection in the box; but I have a few surprises left to blog and didn't want to spoiler myself! This way you can still see how much the box holds without me having to write *SPOILER ALERT* or remember which beads to take out - I have a few long term projects I'm going to be blogging about :)<br /><br />I must admit at first I was wondering why they didn't split the lid into 2 to have shorter rods, but now I've got it I appreciate not losing any bead space... as the key selling point for me is trying to get everything into just the one box (for now).<br /><br />Mars xxMarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-6413424252879471512015-09-22T03:03:37.565+01:002015-09-22T03:03:37.565+01:00It looks like a fantastic case!

I have my X links in one of the circular travel cases right now and I don't mind having them separate, but I like to see all of my regular beads so that I can find what I'mm looking for.<br /><br />I really need to do something with my case, it's getting a bit unruly and disorganized again, but haven't decided what my next steps are. But, I'm going to make do and for now my pennies are reserved for beads! My bead wish list is still so very long.<br /><br />I like the idea you have of putting the rubber stopper in the middle of the long rods. Simple, but effective! One of the things that has kept me away from some of the boxes is the longer rods since I don't want to have to fiddle to get beads out of the middle. But that would almost effectively make it act like two shorter rods - so perfect!Tracyhttp://www.blackbootslonglegs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-91729187201072318192015-09-21T19:34:31.230+01:002015-09-21T19:34:31.230+01:00Wow, this box is awesome!

I have made a box myself for my collection with quite short rods, and that works very well for me. But of course as a Trollbeads fan this original box really seduces me... By the way, you have a wonderfull collection! I wish I could zoom in and have a better look at it... ;-)<br />XOXO<br />DoDohttp://zeitdertrolle.blogspot.denoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-52228443589362175502015-09-21T18:27:07.330+01:002015-09-21T18:27:07.330+01:00Thanks, it's reignited my bead play at the mom...Thanks, it's reignited my bead play at the moment because I'm only working across 2 boxes... going to have a think to see if I can make it one box without sacrificing too much... but I think the only way to do it is to move some of my bracelets back to travel cases and skewer 1 or 2 bracelet compartments as well!Marshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-61979058825164756072015-09-21T18:10:04.513+01:002015-09-21T18:10:04.513+01:00Oh gorgeous!
