String Ring {Review and Giveaway}

An elephant never forgets, but I do. All the time. And the older I get, the more I forget. It’s so not cool.

Check out the beautiful sterling silver String Ring, which presents the ancient belief of tying a string around your finger in a funky, modern way!

Each of the strings has a different color code to help you remember such things as how to be kind, laugh, or forgive. It’s especially easy as a mom to forget what we need for ourselves, isn’t it?

Or heck, you can just wear whichever color string you love the best!

There are also a variety of tying styles and each of the methods is clearly illustrated on the website. The ring comes tied in the basic style, but you can double the strings or tie bows and beads on them.

It took me a couple of tries to get the hang of how to put the strings on, but now I can do it really quickly. There’s a video on the website which was really helpful the first time I tried. I think my favorite way to tie it is in the bow style..so cute!

Buy It! You can purchase the String Ring for $24.95! It comes with 2 of each color string (20 strings!), a jute bag and a polishing cloth. The sterling silver ring is adjustable up or down a size too!
