Bracelets with meanings

[Cullen]

So theres a thread on here about SIAD, and it metions about how orange and white bracelets mean that you SH/have SHed etc. and I was wondering if anybody knew about any other bracelets that stood for different things?

[TibbySkye]

Yeah, I have a few

-Livestrong
-make your own: http://www.reminderband.com/
-St. Judes (a childrens hospital in the states. Mainly cancer) http://shop.stjude.org/GiftCatalog/s...2249&pID=13276
it says: “Finding cures. Saving children.”

Are you looking for anything specific?

Edit: just saw you're in England. I'll look there.

[Marionette.]

Yeap, I have two.
One orange, one red. One for SH, one for EDs

And then a load if others that me/friends have made at certain times.

[losing touch.]

i just wear a LiveStrong band.. :]

[innocentlyangelic]

I have livestrong and breast cancer awareness

[i_am_me_again]

I have so many, but the one I wear is personal..its light blue & white with my name on it with words like 'wish' 'smile' 'inspire'

Iv had it on for 4 years & Iv never taken it off.

Does anyone have a 'mind' band?

[stellar815]

livestrong was the original .. and the best !! but i applaud anyone who still wears them after the fad wore off

[udontno]

I have a bunch of bands like Livestrong bands for various organizations. Red and white, or sometimes red and black can mean recovered from SH. Orange is a more universal color though.

I've got a Samaritans wristband, a Rock for Life wristband (Samaritans), a 'Mind' wristband, oh and a TWLOHA one.

Sometimes charities have various online shops where you can purchase awareness merchandise whilst also donating to the charity. Or probably if you pop in to you're local charity shop they would also have some.

And i swear there was a thread like this before... and someone linked a whole index of colours and the co-ordinating meanings
*Will try and find*

oh and another!

oh the wonders of google xD

but do they have to be the exact ones? or can you just use any bracelet that color....im guessing so as long as its your choice to have it mean that? right?

[Sissa]

I once found a website that listed all the colours with their meanings. I only own one black rubber bracelet and it's supposed to show grief.

I really like the link that was posted where you could design your own bracelet. That's something I would be interested in doing--I can see how they would be good for school fundraisers. Around Homecoming next year, I think we could sell a lot of them with "Indians" on them.

[DivingCheska]

i have a lot..livestrong(yellow) cancer(pink) i cant rember the rest I dont really waer them anymore

[Dasha]

Here's one with just....alot of them. Lol. I'm actually thinking about getting a few of them. And I move that everyone votes on a color/slogan/symbol/whatever for teenhelp. And they could either sell them to raise money for the site, or everyone could custom order it. Yea, Nay?

[Just Julie]

I have three I wear everyday =] Two are for my friend who passed away, and the other is from relay for life it's purple and says "HOPE" on it..
The ones for my friend were from a website called www.wristbandsnow.com and can be customized

That would be interesting, but if we were to do something like that you'd probably have to custom order it yourself. When trying to market stuff for this site, we have problems selling it. Either teens don't have the money to buy stuff or they don't have any means to buy it online. Also, a lot of people don't want to advertise that they are on a teen help website.

I wear a "make a wish [foundation]" bracelet, and a yellow band that says greater things from my friends chruch. I also made an orange one with one white bead, and then just random colored braclets.

[Gidig]

I've always loved these wristbands, and have TONS. I wear them around when I find them.

Now I'm going to have to check out these custom ones...
I so want an orange one with a message on the inside

[~Anthology~]

Bracelets I know of that mean something are ones you can buy at a local store for a good cause, and the money goes to a good charity, such as breast cancer which the pink bracelets are for, and the colorful ones are raise a reader.
