Wish bracelet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Wish bracelet is a piece of jewelry with beads. Popular folklore holds that the wearer should make a wish while putting the bracelet on, and rub the beads every day. When the bracelet finally comes off, the wish is believed to have come true.
Other beliefs about the wish bracelet are:
1)that each bead upon the bracelet can hold one wish. Before putting the bracelet on, you hold the bead and whisper your wish, repeating it for each bead. When the bracelet does fall off, the wish will come true.
2) that you only get one wish per bracelet, but the more beads there are, the stronger your wish can be. For example, one bead may hold 'I wish I get a good grade on ...' but more beads may hold wishes such as, 'I wish I could get a puppy' or, 'I wish so-and-so would ask me out' and again, when the bracelet falls off, your wish comes true.
Different colors of the beads can symbolize different qualities of wishes that the bracelet will grant. For instance some people believe that a bracelet with;
Red beads represents Enthusiasm
