Fancy Friendship Bracelets

NEW

Introducing Fancy Friendship Bracelets, the original Friendship Bracelet’s new best friend. We started with super-simple instructions for a bunch of all-new bracelet designs. We added five different colors of cord and more than 200 sparkling beads. Then we threw in some stylish charms for good measure. The result is even better than we hoped. Comes with: 40 yards of cord in 5 colors, beads, charms

We began our corporate life in 1977 in a garage we shared with a Chevrolet Impala. Although we’ve outgrown that first office, Klutz galactic headquarters remains in Palo Alto, California, and we’re still staffed entirely by real human beings. For those of you who collect mission statements, here’s ours:

* Create wonderful things * Be good * Have fun
