My first silicone wristband was purchased in June of 2005. I was shopping with my mother and little sister at a store in North Carolina. I had been begging for one for a long time, because literally every kid at my school owned one.They had silicone wristbands from every charity, lined up and down their arms and some people wore them on their ankles.
Livestrong bracelets, breast cancer awareness bracelets, child abuse prevention silicone bracelets, were all part of the ones more commonly seen. Then of course there were the silicone bracelets proclaiming ones love for another person, best friend bracelets, and many more.
I spotted the perfect silicone bracelet inside a popular boutique, and it was on sale for $1.50. It said in bold letters “proud”. That was pretty cheap, and I begged my Mom to buy it for me. She agreed, and I put it on immediately. I wore it proudly all day, and I admired the soft silicone as well as the pretty colors that it was made from.
The next day at school I wore it out of excitement and showed it off to everyone I knew at school. People were clearly jealous of my wonderful silicone bracelet!
That is, until someone blatantly pointed out that my first silicone wristband didn’t say what I thought it said. Instead, the bracelet said “prude” and everyone laughed at me. Read more »

If you are looking to promote a business, you may have utilized various tools to do so. You may have used t-shirts, pens, etc. However, there is only one problem with that. Everyone else is doing the same thing as you, and there is nothing in using these tools for promotion that distinguishes you from your competitors – or any other company for that matter. There have been many attempts at using other products, such as frisbees, coasters, and the like, but none of them really catch on, as they are fairly useless to a lot of people. On the contrary, there are other promotional tools that are relatively new which can prove very effective, while at the same time eye catching: using silicone wristbands as promotional tools.

A couple of months ago, I was in the middle of planning my wedding to the greatest guy in the world when all of the sudden it hits me that neither of us had found gifts for our attendants. We had six groomsmen and six bridesmaids to buy gifts for, and we needed to find something personal and meaningful that we could have in our hands before our wedding date.
We started out by researching the traditional route, looking for something silver to have engraved or some typical, personalized gift that would be quick and easy to order, but still have some kind of meaningful aspect to it. In the middle of looking through numerous catalogs of traditional keepsakes that can be engraved for memorable gifts, my husband and I looked at each other and just started laughing. Traditional engraved silver is just not the thing for any of our friends. Read more »
