Silly Bandz a Jewelry Masterpiece

Posted On: August 16, 2011 at 2:43 p.m.

It’s hard to think of the cheap and flimsy Silly Bandz silicone wristbands that have taken the country by storm as an elegant piece of jewelry. After all, can’t you buy a pack of 25 for around a buck? But two students in London want you to rethink this—for charity of course. And they have created something beautiful out of something silly. According to Ecouterre : “Silly Bandz and their ilk may be a disposable novelty for the junior set, but two students from London College of Fashion have transformed the dime-a-dozen rubber bracelets, which come in neon colors and goofy shapes for stacking, into bespoke objects of luxury. As part of Save the Children’s “No Chlid Born to Die” campaign, Lili Colley and Katherine Taylor were given one week and £5 ($8) to transform the charity’s glow-in-the-dark wristbands into one-of-a-kind masterpieces.” Silly Bandz Jewelry What do you think, would you buy one?
