The journey we embark on in our voyages is always one of change, of new ideas and beliefs, and of enjoying the vastness and variety our world has to offer. Some believe that deep blue is the most alluring and mysterious of colors, and we have captured this divine shade of perfectly balanced blue in our Marine Metallic AWB; boasting a palette of tranquil blues transforming your wristscape™ into a sophisticated statement of classic elegance. Handcrafted in Thailand by our team of really nice people. Each Marine All Weather Bangle is made by a team of 20+ artisans, each bangle is hand made, each is a labor of love. Marine All Weather Bangles® (AWB®) are made with organic oils,and at times a slight color differentiation might occur, this is only natural as humidity and temperature conditions do affect the outcome. Our Serenity Prayer Bead is made with uncoated brass which as time goes by, might develop a verdi-gris patina. Our point is that Marine All Weather Bangles are a product that will age, develop character, and will remain beautiful...just like our BuDhaGirls. BuDhaGirl Marine All Weather Bangle bracelets are made of polyvinyl carbonate tubing that is a semi-flexible material, so there is a little give when you slide the bangles over your hand. The key to deciding your size...how the bangles go over your hand, not the size of your wrist.  The Serenity Prayer is not new, although in modern times it is attributed to Reinhold Niebuhr. Epictetus had a version, the Jewish philosopher Solomon ibn Gabirol had a version, and even W.W. Bartley had a version with a Mother Goose rhyme dated 1695.  The prayer is simple yet powerful: God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference. You can wear your Marine All Weather Bangles® anywhere because they are waterproof and soundless. Our Marine All Weather Bangle bracelets are made with gold leaf suspended in flexible, polyvinyl carbonate rings, and then sealed with our exclusive BuDhaGirl Serenity Prayer bead, allowing them to go from the pool, to the office, and to the airport (they’re TSA proof) all without needing to leave your wrist.  Serenity Prayer:  May I have the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Mindful Glamour Ritual: Pause...Slide your All Weather Marine Bangle bracelets on one by one. Focus on being present, and in the Now. Each intention you make will be with you throughout the day...Go, Be it. Thought: Inner peace can be attained no matter the circumstance. We must live in the present moment and take joy from this, keeping in mind that intentions do influence outcomes.
