Italians Beware!!

Do not buy bracelets with magnetic closures!!! I repeat: DO NOT BUY BRACELETS WITH MAGNETIC CLOSURES!
These were some of my favorite bracelets. But I have not been able to wear them. It got to be too dangerous---and a potential liability!
A close-up in case you don't know what a magnetic closure looks like.

Once you start talking, they fly off. The magnet is just not strong enough to withstand an Italian during normal conversation.

(Get it---we talk with our hands???)

  1. LOL. I was reading along thinking, "WHY not wear magnets..." I'm not Italian but I can't talk without moving my hands around. And I do own a lot of bracelets (bracelets are my thing) but none with magnets. Thanks for the head's up for future purchases though!

  2. As someone who is 1/2 Italian...I totally get this! However, I don't wear bracelets, so I guess I'm safe!!

  4. Sorry that your bracelets aren't up to snuff.

    When I bought the troll bead bracelet I bought the stoppers as well as the locks so that even if the bracelet flew off the beads won't. Wookie wasn't certain (thought I was just being sold too even though I'd asked for them) until the first time it happened and then he was all for it :)

  5. LOL - I saw a video of myself teaching once & realized that I could never do it without my hands. I'll definitely pass on any magnetic closures!
