Skull-Adorned Friendship Bracelets

Threads of Friendship Releases the Diamond Dust Collection

— May 15, 2012 — Fashion
Threads of Friendship is a jewelry line based in New York created by jewelry designer Andrea Barna and business partner Kollene McGinley. The company will be releasing its first piece from the Diamond Dust Collection in its skull bracelet, which will be available on June 15th for $120.00. These new bracelets are unique because of their diamond-encrusted eyes in the skull designs, chain clasp and the finest quality thread. Most notably, a portion of the proceeds from each bracelet go towards The Walkabout Foundation and Best Buddies Organization.

The idea behind these bracelets came from the current friendship bracelet craze that exemplifies characteristics of unity and support. These embellished friendship bracelets can connect individuals from across the globe, and represent long-lasting friendship bonds. Get ready to purchase one of these gifts for a dear friend, and there is more from the collection to come.
