What is a rubber band bracelet? People refer to these bracelets in many different ways. Most common are the terms; silicone bracelet, rubber bracelet, and of course instead of bracelet the word wristband is used interchangeably. Other labels being used are; awareness bracelet or jelly bracelet. And other names stem from their use such as; cancer bracelets, event bracelets, “support our troops” bracelets, etc.
What you call the bracelets is not as important as what they may be used for. Generally, they are used for fundraising and awareness promotions. Many organizations sell them with an important phrase or symbol imprinted on the bracelet created in some significant color to help identify their cause.
A rubber band bracelet is made of durable silicone that can stretch but will not break easily. During manufacture the bracelet is molded in the colors of choice and the text is debossed into the bracelet. It is possible to simply print the text on the bracelet but the text can eventually wear away, and debossed text prevents that from happening. Of course, another option is to paint or color the debossed text to enhance the look of the bracelet allowing the text to stand out more.
Text is not the only thing people have printed or debossed on the bracelets. Many have opted to have symbols or logos included on the rubber band bracelet. Including a logo is an excellent way of marketing a product or brand. Some companies have pass out the bracelets and encourage people to wear them and display them freely. This type of use can be an inexpensive promotional tool for just about any company or organization.
Many fundraisers and charities will sell the bracelets to raise money. At the same time having people wear them around town creates visibility and awareness for any cause, idea, or brand being promoted. The cost of the rubber bracelet is low, and the larger quantity purchased, the lower the cost will be for each one. The cost can go down well below a dollar a bracelet allowing plenty of head room for profit that can benefit any fundraiser.
Whether you call them rubber band bracelets, silicone bracelets, rubber bracelets, or awareness bracelets, they are another good way to raise money, create awareness, and promote your product brand.

Getting custom silicone bracelets made is not as difficult or expensive as one might think. When ever the word custom is used to describe something people automatically think it includes a lot of work and money to get it customized. However, when talking about a custom rubber bracelet, that doesn’t have to be the case.
Customize your wristband
To design a custom wristband or bracelet it is a simple process that can be completed online using your computer. If you visit bracelets-with-a-message.com and go to the order page you will be presented with all of the choices and options to start styling your rubber bracelet. The page shows you color options (to the right) to choose for your bracelets. You can use one solid color or a combination of a couple of colors as a two tone or swirl effect. If you do not see the color you want it is possible to request a custom color.
There are numerous text options that have been proven to look good and are readable, but just note the message that a few colors do not read well with certain fonts. Next step is to enter your text you want to appear on the outside of the wristband. The lettering will be debossed (engraved) into the rubber bracelet and will be the same color as the bracelet. You can also have additional text inserted into the inside portion of the wristband for small additional fee. Some clients prefer to include their domain name or web address inside the rubber bracelet for marketing purposes. Whatever text you enter, click on the preview button to see an example of what your custom rubber bracelets are going to look like.
Of course it is an option to have a logo or emblem printed or debossed into the bracelet. This can be done instead of your text message or as an additional part of the message. If this is desirable for your order it is necessary to be given proof of ownership of any logo images.
Another option to consider is the sizing of the bracelet. By default there are 2 choices, Adult and Youth. Keep in mind that sometimes the youth sizes work better for some women, and it is always possible to get custom sizes made. These custom silicone bracelets are made of durable silicone, so they do stretch, but they will not break easily, and can last a lifetime.
How many? This is the big question at the end of your order. To help in your decision keep in mind how popular the rubber wristbands have become of the years. Also, the more you order the cost can drop drastically. If the wristbands are for a fundraising campaign then creating a larger profit margin would be desirable. Large quantity order can bring down the cost well below $1.00 per bracelet. Another money saving feature is you will get free delivery for any purchase of $50.00 or more.
Ordering custom rubber bracelets is a simple and painless procedure, and with free, fast delivery, what are you waiting for? Order rubber bracelets, now!
