A friendship bracelet symbolizes the relationship of the giver to the person who receives the bracelet. It gives the idea of being special to someone. Giving a bracelet to a friend is also a sign of a long-lasting friendship. The traditional practice is to have one friend tie the bracelet while the receiver makes a wish. It is a belief that the bracelets have to be worn until they fall off naturally, and the wish will be granted. Friendship bracelets also represent the infinite cycle of the relationship among friends who wear their bracelets on their wrists.
