THE GRACELET HAS (almost) ARRIVED!

Forgive me Blah-g for I have sinned. It has been six months since my last entry about the Gracelet. So allow me to refresh your memory.

New series coming out. Phoenix Five. Most popular freshman’s secret journals are exposed. One of the characters, Vanessa Riley (check out her board on Pintrest) is a full-on over achiever. At least that’s what she wants people to believe. Anyway, she loves stockpiling awards. Among the many, she is in hot pursuit of—I’ll have her tell you:

“I entered the Girl Scout’s Young Women of Distinction contest. First place: Gold Award! Super prestigious. My entry is a bracelet with a secret compartment inside an envelope. You write a personal goal on a piece of paper and slip it inside. I named it a Gracelet to remind people to pursue their dreams with grace and to say grace once they achieve them. They are made by Haitian orphans. All proceeds go to their orphanage. I got the sample on Saturday. I’ll take orders Monday. There will be a school named after me by Friday.”

So what did I do? I found a FABULOUS jewelry designer at Gorjana & Griffin and she made Vanessa’s Gracelet. The crazy thing? The real life designer’s name is Vanessa. Here she is. Ah-dorable.

I got to see the first sample on Monday. Look! I’m a hand model.

That envelope flap lifts up and there’s a slot inside. It’s just the right size for hiding a slip of paper that states your secret mission. You can write anything from: Be a better friend to let my bangs grow out. It can be world-changing or selfish and shallow. That’s the beauty. No one sees it but you. When your mission is completed scrap the scrap and write a new one. Do you love or LOVE?

Okay now listen up. This is where you come in. You will have a choice of gold or silver for the envelope. FYI I’m gold, all the way. You will also get to choose from 3 different color cords. The cord will look like the 5.0 inch below (only not poo colored.)

There are lots of colors to choose from. This is me thinking I’m a designer, trying to choose 3.

There were so many to choose from. And I being a consistent gold and brown, can not possibly speak for you. Are you a pink-silver? A blue-gold? A green-gold? Help me help you. Here are the color samples. Tell me which color you like by giving me its number. Top 3 win.

I should get the next sample in a month. I’ll post it then. When all is said and done it will go on sale when P5 launches in September 2013. Proceeds go to a charity you choose.
Vanessa, you think of everything!!!

TTYW,

Lisi

    9 PLEASE!!! CORAL IS THE BEST COLOR

  • Desiree says:

    Hi, Miss Harrison. Personally I like 62 (pink), 64 (yellow), and 13 (white). I know white is a little plain, but I can see it against the silver in my mind and it’s totes cuteness. But those are just my opinions. Go with whatever. Love ya!

  • Christine Vert says:

    How much will they be and where can you buy them

    <3

  • Christine Vert says:

    I luv #12 and # 3 but 12 more

  • lo says:

    74!!!!!!!!!! please!!! and what will the price be?????

  • Abby Burn says:

    The Gracelet sounds AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Sammy says:

    12,61, and 71

  • Haylee says:

    Olivia-Yeah 😀

  • Haylee says:

    Olivia- Yeah 😀

  • olivia says:

    Number nine is by far the best 🙂

  • Arianna says:

    Why doesn’t anyone want to represent a superhero story?!

  • Arianna says:

    Okay, so TLOATH 2 is done, I can start on my horror short story,

  • Ibby says:

    thank you so much for the photo shout out Lisi, you’re my favorite author this is so exciting 🙂 xx

  • Haylee says:

    Zula- And what I mean about secret relationship in a comical and cute way. Like Damon kisses her shoulder when no one’s looking, they sneak out of each other’s homes, go on dates in seperate towns, have an argument and Katherine’s like “You two having a couples fight?” and they both look away guiltly and continue fighting because they’re both stubborn people, etc.

  • Haylee says:

    Zula-OK, right now I read a spoiler that Elena throws up over Stefan right before they’re about to do it. It’s confirmed. LOL. BEST. NEWS. EVER.

  • Laura says:

    74!!! 😀

  • Cecilia says:

    Hey Lisi,
    Ahh! This idea is..pure genius. I’m shocked. I mean, who wouldn’t want one of these? My favorite is the coral, number 9. Lisi, I think it’s really amazing that you not only came up with an adorable piece of jewelry, yet you managed to a) incorporate into your new series that the world can’t wait for (another year? *sad face*), b) made a piece of jewelry designed to change the world, even if it’s in little ways, and c) donate to a good cause. The Gracelet’s gonna be a hit! I will deffinitely be looking forward to it!(:
    Love, C.

    • Cecilia says:

      Oh, and here’s a quick question: What do you think the price range will mostly likely be for the bracelet? Thanks(:

  • Haylee says:

    Zula- did you read my reply? Look into the older comments 🙂

    • Zula says:

      repliedddddd

      • Haylee says:

        Zula-I’m jealous of you scooping up all the Irish biscuits *pouts* And did you read that new TVD spoiler? Stefan and Elena are going to get it on vamp-style in 4×02! Ew 🙁 And he’ll push her up against a wall and stuff. But as they do it, I’m thinking that since the new spoiler says that Stefan’s blood diet won’t go right in Elena’s tummy, I think Damon’s going to try to help Elena after she pukes out his blood. But they will keep their new blood bond a secret from Stefan 😀 And also I read a spoiler that in ep 2, Elena will try to sit by Damon in Alaric’s old chair at the Grill but since he’s still feeling bitter about Ric’s death, he’ll get her to sit somewhere else. Oh and also Caroline will make out with Klaus. 🙁 Ew, I hate them together. I don’t know what’s more gross: Stelena or Klaroline? Why can’t Caroline make out with Tyler, Stefan or even Matt. I liked her with those guys. And also Matt’s going to be Elena’s date to the Miss Mystic Falls pageant in 4×07 (there’s going to be more Delena scenes in that ep! :)) There are more spoilers online. And I’m talking to him more now and I like him more now. 🙂 And I love OTH, it’s worth watching! And I know what youmean! I watch Supernatural (season 8 starts 2mrw! Yay!), Sherlock, TVD, Glee, Hart of Dixie, Revenge, PLL, OUAT, Castle, Grey’s Anatomy, HIMYM, Happy Endings, TBBT, etc. I love Doctor Who, but it’s pissing me off right now. I don’t like Moffat’s era as much as the previous one, and it’s become such a sell-out and caters only to the people who actually believe that the show started with Matt Smith as the Doctor. I’m taking a break for now, but since I’m a Whovian, I’ll prolly catch up.

  • srishti says:

    no? oh well…
    gosh i sound so self-pitying, i feel sick! i NEEEED to cheer up. Being gloomy is ridiculous.
    hmmm….

  • srishti says:

    anyone there? i’m feeling lonely:(

  • Arianna says:

    I finished TLOATH 2.

    • Zula says:

      Well Done Arianna! Thats so amazing of you! I don’t even really know you, yet I’m so proud of all the hard work and dedication you’ve put in! Congrats!

      • Arianna says:

        Thanks Zula! It’s not too impressive seeing I barely broke the 100 page and 70K word mark. Plus it’s pretty terrible, but whatevs. At least it’s over.

  • Marlee says:

    65! 🙂

  • Maggie says:

    once upon a time rocked. Btw, since my dream of giving my nerdy glasses to bieber, they’v been missing. It’s crazy! my mind is getting all dream twisted!!!! I shall continue thy search. peace!

  • Samantha says:

    Wowie, the Gracelet sounds ah-mazing!!! Toatally heart it!!! Wow, Lisi you have me talking like Allie J. (Whoops, A!!!) !

  • Arianna says:

    I’m soooo sleepy. And I have to write a poem. Ugh…

  • Haylee says:

    Zula- OK I’m retyping this 🙁 🙂 Doesn’t this song just scream season 1/season 2 Delena, even though it played during a Damon/Kat kiss? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9y8aux4wT4 Especially the part where the singer is like “I think we’re compatible, but i see that you think I’m wrong.” I love this song!

    • Haylee says:

      Your crush sounds cool 😀 And I get what you mean about New York, but North Carolina seems more romantic! One Tree Hill for the win <3
      And I know I'm crazy for asking you if you still love DE! I mean most TVD fans love them. And I like Rachel and Brody together but I like St. Berry more than Brochel. But I hate Finchel XD And I heard that Stefan and Caroline will also have scenes together in 4×03! OMG! And when Damon and Elena get together sometime, I want them to have a secret relationship in the beginning like Mark/Lexie did and Castle/Beckett are currently having.

      • Zula says:

        Your so right about that song! its perfect for them! the line “I’ll be there to take care of you if you ever should decide” is completely them in season 3 too! Its amazing! Thanks he’s pretty awesome :3 but I have to wait till the summer to see him! Stupid Ireland being an island! :L Any news between you and your crush?! I sometimes think i should start watching OTH from the beggining, but then I realise how many other tv shows i also have to keep up do date with and its just so overwhelming! 😛 You hate Finnchel? I don’t love them, but I don’t hate them either… They’re in love and its cute, but they don’t work *that* well together I don’t think! Yeah your right, a secret relationship would be good, and give them time to properly test the relationship before they hurt people like stefan and matt! But kind of related kind of not, I’ve been thinking recently, if you have to keep your relationship a secret to test whether it’ll work, is that actually a true representation of it? I think when your with other people it’s a whole different dynamic, and like how certain people influence reactions and emotions from people that if they had just been with their bf/gf they wouldn’t act like. Just rambling though, but it kind of applies! 🙂

  • Haylee says:

    *sighs*

  • Haylee says:

    Zula, I sent a reply to you but it’s getting moderated for some stupid reason 🙁

  • Haylee says:

    Lisi please let this show up! I don’t understand why you’re doing this!

    Zula-I haven’t liked GG since season 3, but I do get you about New York! And One Tree Hill is a must-watch I love that show! And the Scott brothers are hot
    And nice And I know I’m crazy for thinking that! I mean a majority of the TVD fanbase love Delena! And despite the fact that this song was in a Damon/Katherine kissing scene in 3×05, but I think it fits Delena more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9y8aux4wT4
    And I thought you shipped Tyler and Caroline? And Stefan can have chemistry with a tree! He’s like my shipping bicycle lol. And Aria-I didn’t include all of my Aria ships! I love Ezra and Aria the most, they are so cute together and Ezra is so sweet and handsome ; I like Holden/Aria in a friendship kinda way, I like Sparia in whatever kinda way, and I have a soft spot for Jaria despite myself being a huge Ezria fan. Haleb- love them! I never understood or felt the chemistry between Wrenna, I mean Toby/Hanna have some chemistry too but I’m 100% Haleb. And with Emily, I like her with Toby and Samara. And I love Wrencer a lot, but I get what you mean about them not being 100% right. I mean there was no consistency in writing Wren’s character this season, which is sad because I really like him. In the PLL books: Toby/Emily, Hanna/Mike, Spencer/Wren and Noel/Aria for me. Oh and I forgot to include Jack/Emily! I’m mad at myself. I actually like Emily with all the guys: Jack, Daniel and Nolan but Jack definitely most! And I like Brody/Rachel but St. Berry more. I just hate Finchel so much XD And yes to Klaine and Fabrevans. But I do also like Sebastian/Santana and Samcedes. And watch this! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NMWrUTltKk The opening part made me laugh Dirty Stefan!

  • Chelseaa says:

    #1, #13, and #71. 🙂

  • Zula says:

    Lil miss Hayleeee- Looooooong comment! 😛 I think Dan and Vanessa never really worked *that* great in my book, in theory, sure! But it was always too … I dont even know how to put it, not convoluted, but like there was no real huge spark, a bit flat I guess. Just like it had to happen at some point so they chucked it in and got it over with. Thats why I like the books too, but in a completely different way, the characters are so different and my views on them are so opposite to them on tv! I love Danessa in book form 🙂 Yeah shipwars aren’t that great I don’t think, I like to be able to discuss pros and cons of a couple, I’ve yet to find the perfect perfect ship, and I never will, because it doesn’t exist, every person has flaws, so a couple has double that amount surely? :L Dair was a good couple, they brought out good things in each other, Dan kept Blair calmer, more peaceful and less neurotic and schemey! Which made the viewer see loads of different things about her, but with Chuck she has an extra sparkle, she seems more in control and like the leader she is meant to be.
    You sound like you are a good rider, but too modest to say so 😉 You can have skills like Zara Phillips in my mind 😛 Your crush sounds sweet, and hot! If your worried about dating an older guy, maybe just get to know him quite well first, and then see how that progresses, 2 years doesn’t seem like much, but he could be ready to do things you might not want to do yet, and that could be a lot of pressure! I’m not trying to patronise you, but my crush is only a year older than me, and I know he wants photos of me in just a bra, but I just don’t feel okay to send that sort of thing, so I say no, luckily he understands that I don’t want to feel like a slut or anything and accepts that! So you really want to be sure you know him well enough that he wont push you to do stuff 🙂 I’m sorry if this sounds like an ‘I know better’ rant. I don’t, I just don’t want to hear you get hurt!

    • Haylee says:

      Zula-I’m not a Danessa fan in the show but I’d rather that than Derena. I love it in the books too, along with Nate and Blair. And the GG show is poorly written now.You should watch One Tree Hill! It’s in the same genre but MUCH better. I love that show. And I love Nathan Scott!
      And thanks! And he does seem kind of mature to me so I’m nervous! And desire is natural, but as long as he doesn’t push you in that direction it’ll be fine. And I understand, thank you 🙂
      And I have a question. Do you still like Damon and Elena together? And I just love this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_r-iYy-3dU

      • Zula says:

        I know GG isnt as great as it used to be, but its still kind of amazing to me. I think its the the draw that New York has to me, if something has New York as a setting/theme etcc (you know what I mean) it instantly seems more magical! I cant wait to move there one day <3
        No he doesn't push me, he's actually really sweet and sensitive to my feelings most of the time 🙂 do I still like Delena? What kind of a question is that?! Of course! How could you change to not like such an amazing couple?! I love the video, its so well done, and so cute too.
        My ships are:
        TVD:
        -Damon and Elena
        -Rebekah and Stefan (again, for some reason i think i dont normally pt them together? but today sureeee)
        PLL
        -Ezra and Aria
        -Aria and Noel (in the books)
        – Hannah and Caleb
        -Emily and Noel
        I kind of like Spencer and Wren but they arent 100% right I dont think
        Revenge:
        -Emily and Jack (Im really anti real emily/fake amanda)
        Glee:
        -Jesse and Rachel ( SO SO glad you love them too!) But Brody and rachel could be interesting?
        -Kurt and Blaine
        -Quinn and Sam
        TBBT:
        -Leonard and Penny
        agree with himym! love those two together!
        and i don't watch ouat and i saw lost years ago and don't remember any of it, whoops! 😛

  • Noah Araiza says:

    Lisi, I am having major, major, MAJOR writer’s block and it’s crazy. I’m writing a book about four popular kids and the entire book is made of their journal entries. I know, it sounds a lot like your book. But i already talked to you about it over Facebook, idk if you remember. Anyway, I really don’t know how to start the first entry (a girl named Maddy, who is a total brat and super conceited). Help? I’m in desperate need of advice! Love you Lisi.

    • Lisi (yes it's me) says:

      Noah, writers block comes from not knowing where your story is going. Outline first. Make sure you know the bullet points of the story. I promise this will help. Then write. Don;t worry if it’s good or not. Deal with that in your second draft. For now just get something down on paper. Good luck!

  • Jordan says:

    I like 71, 5, and 69! All with silver 🙂

  • Arianna says:

    I love how Lisi replied to ANjor and gave her advice!! So sweet! So nice! So awesome!

  • vamp0gurrl says:

    All the talk always seems to be about shows I don’t watch, well other than PLL and once upon a time. That being said, who loves adventure time?

    • vamp0gurrl says:

      ok, what about the amazing world of gumball? victorious? My Babysitter’s a vampire? Shake it up? good luck charlie? gravity falls? Mad? Ant farm? Jessie?

      • Arianna says:

        I don’t watch Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, or any other kid shows. Except for my old school cartoons. I mostly watch YouTube, or I do homework…

  • Arianna says:

    Bye Anjor!! Hope everything works out!! Good luck with the homework!!

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    Argh, well enough is enough. 😀 I’ve put off my homework for too long. Thank you so much guys, for all of your input! It really means a lot and it really helps a lot. If you have anything else to say (and this goes for everyone else) then please just comment with it. As of right now, I am running. But I’m glad to know that I have a great group of girls behind me. 🙂

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    Arianna- And that’s super brave. I guess you take it in your stride after a while and just keep going. Because it’s really all you can do. And sometimes, it’s not so bad. Of course, there is that big “HA-HA” moment to look forward to when you become a rich and famous author and all of your past enemies will be totally jealous 😀 There’s always that.

  • Arianna says:

    Anjor- Honestly, I’ve gotten over most of my loses and fails, some still bother me, but overall I could care less about them. And I truly think you’ll kick some major butt if you run for president! Go for it!!

    And yeah, TLOATH is my story.

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    *THE PLAYLIST OF AWESOME*
    (add more as you go along)

  • Haylee says:

    Anjor- OH-KKKKKAY! 😀 And yes I do love HIMYM, but I’m tired of the whole Barney/Robin/Ted thing. And on BBT, I ship Sheldon/Penny. Leonard/Penny have zero chemistry and he doesn’t understand her.

    • thecrazydesi15 says:

      OMROMROMROMROMROMROMROMROMROMROMR
      WE ARE SOUL SISTERS
      Imma start watching Once Upon a Time just for you, okay? 😀
      I’m tired of Barney/Robin/Ted too. Nope, I’ve ALWAYS been a Bobbin (Barney/Robin) shipper since the beginning! 🙂
      Sheldon/Penny? I’ve met a lot of people who think like that, and personally I find it interesting. I don’t know; I’ve never seen those two together simply because they’ve always been portrayed more of like an older sister-brother or mother-son relationship, but whatever floats your boat! (it’s a ship. get it? cuz you ship it?….I make bad jokes 🙁 ) I’m not one to judge non-written ships, because I ship a couple myself! (DRAPPLE FOREVER! HE LOVED THE APPLE MORE THAN ANYTHING!)

        INDEED. And I ship Brobin too! I feel like this is being dragged out but then again I shipped Ross/Rachel!
        And I think where Sheldon/Penny stand right now, it may seem like that but they have a lot of potential. And I freaking love Drapple. Even more than I love Drarry and Dramione. But my HP OTP is James/Lily, Harry/Hermione, Draco+anything (I just love him.) and Harry/Luna. And about non-written ships I ship Johnlock, Faberry, Julyberry and Steroline. Finchel really irritates me, I loved St. Berry and Brochel is OK and i have a soft-spot for Puckleberry.

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    Haylee- Hmm….I guess….I just…Well…you know what? I’m going to run. Because I know that if I back down and run instead for Vice President because I’ll never be happy always thinking back and going “what if I ran for president? could I have won?” because that’s just the way I am-that’s what happened with my long-time crush. He didn’t like me back (well, he didn’t exactly say that but I guess it’s kind of a given) but at least I told it and I can’t regret it. (Not to say that your sister is wrong; I’m just a special child :D).
    Arianna- I’m running for both of us, all right? This is just as much it is for me as it is for you. 🙂

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    Arianna- Oh, honey! That’s awful. I don’t know why that would happen. Psh. Life. It really does suck sometimes, doesn’t it? I didn’t make the tennis team, but I was slightly more happy about that because it meant that I wouldn’t have to choose between tennis and the musical. TLOATH is your story right? I’m really, sorry, I haven’t been on in a while, but I feel like I’ve read parts of it and I vaguely remember thinking that it was really good 🙂

  • Haylee says:

    Anjor- My sister thought the same thing, so she ran for vice prez instead and she had won.

  • Arianna says:

    If it makes you feel better, I ran for student council three times, lost every time. Didn’t make the dance team, cheer squad, volleyball team, or soccer team. I’ve also recieved 9 rejection letters for TLOATH and lost about 22 writing contests including the Clique one Lisi did on Figment (Still bitter over that one), the secret agent one, and my own. So I basically live, eat, and sleep failure. But at least I tried. That’s all you can do. I highly reccomend you run for president and see what happens. You might actually win. I mean, you miss 100% of the shots you never take. Michael Jordan said that, I think.

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    Arianna- Oh, if I do decide to run, then it’s going to be nothing but poster land and kiss-butt-ing. :p
    Argh, and of all times my internet has to pick now to be super-screwy. The page has to reload and stop working every time I go to post a comment.

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    I guess if all else fails, I can just go “SCREW LIFE” and go sit on the couch eating Nutella out of the jar and watching old kids shows and wearing my gray comedy mustache. 😀

  • Arianna says:

    Anjor- Make posters, speeches, flyers… I’m sure you can figure something out. And yeah, the fear of failure is terrifying. I basically live in that fear…

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    Arianna- sorry! I didn’t see them. I saw it now. I think running sounds like a good idea. I just have NO IDEA how to show that I’m a good leader and stuff. Again, I am like, socially inept. Put me on a stage, I’m fine. But network? Kiss babies (will, it’s a high school election so yeah…) but I have no idea how to go out there and make people vote for me, so that’s a big issue. And this girl has got them rolling in. I guess it’s just the fear of failure. And it kind of feels like everything’s been snowballing up into this and now…well, sometimes you feel alone :l That’s why I turned to your guys.

  • Arianna says:

    I’ve been replying to your actual comments so my responses are up there attached to your problem.

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    vampogurrl- thanks 🙂 It’s just hard I guess. I really don’t want to loose. I’ve never been insanely popular, and I’ve never really cared. I’ve been happy with what I had, but now…I don’t know. I guess people seem to expect more? I got the lead in the musical last year, and I was the class speaker at graduation. I was really hoping that those points would work in my favor, but I don’t want people to talk behind my back or whatever if I do lose. Which, I know is superficial, and I’ve never really cared before, but it’s been a hard time. I lost two good friends that I had (I found out that they were saying pretty harsh stuff with me behind my back) and that kind of cut me up. And now, a lot of my friends are her friends too, so it’s getting really complicated.

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    So….any thoughts guys? Haylee? Arianna?

  • vamp0gurrl says:

    Ok, so maybe you should be really nice to your rival/friend. you should say things like “if i don’t win i hope it’s you” even if on the inside you don’t. then if you win she wont be upset and if she wins be supportive. but also try your best and hope you will win ☺
    hope this helps!

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    Ugh, and there’s the fact that even one of my closest friends couldn’t cheer me up when I called her and told her that I found out that this other girl was running. I would say that she is my closest friend (although I have one close friend in Boston, but she’s in Boston so it’s hard…) but even she couldn’t help. Yes, I get it that wants to be a psychiatrist when she grows up and that she would make a great one, but telling me to follow my heart really doesn’t help. Yes, I know I have to make this decision myself, but at the same time a little advice from her would have been appreciated. 🙁 I really don’t know guys….things have just been really hard lately, and it’s really hard looking on the bright side.

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    still there guys?

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    Oh, that’s me, btw; thecrazydesi15’s me Anjor

  • Haylee says:

    Wow comments are so quick right now.

  • thecrazydesi15 says:

    Here’s the deal: after a lot of debate, I decided to run for freshman class President, because a couple of my friends encouraged me to do it. I had been thinking about it, but I guess their enthusiasm was kind of what I needed. So after thinking about it for a while, I decided to run. But today, at our school’s bonfire (it’s homecoming week), I found out that one of my semi-friends (and one of my best friend’s super-close friend) is also running for President. And the thing is that she’s really popular, and when these kinds of things, it can be just a big popularity contest. So now…I dunno. I don’t know if I should still run, but at the same time, I really want to. I really don’t want to lose (well, duh. who does?) because, honestly, it would be really embarrassing. I could run for Vice President or something, but the Gryffindor inside of me (HP for life!) doesn’t want to back down. But….there’s the possibility I could lose. And the only way I could win was to super hard core, which would be really hard, seeing as a lot of my friends are her friends too and it might be a bit awkward. At the same time, Vice President might be a bit easier seeing that I have a lot of stuff going on; musical practices, Honors classes, singing lessons, dance lessons, and guitar lessons. I really don’t know what to do and I really need some advice here guys, so please help 🙂

    • Arianna says:

      Go for it. Go after what you want. Even if you’re not the most popular girl in the school, if you can set good goals and make the rest of the school realize that you’re the better choice, then you stand a pretty good chance. I say you should run for president because it seems like that’s what you really want. And if you don’t win (Which would be crazy because you’re an amazing person) at least you tried.

    • Lisi (yes it's me) says:

      Hey, it’s Lisi. I totally understand your trepidation. There is a possibility you might lose. I get it. But that can’t stop you from running. If you think she’ll get votes based on popularity you have to find a platform that will work for you. Think differently. Know your audience. Think of what they really need and tell them how you’re going to give it to them. I wish our presidential candidates were doing more of that. Just so you know, I have been terrified to write my adult book. I have written 30 YA novels but adult is different. What if I can’t do it? What if it doesn’t sell? What if critics hate it? All of those things are very possible. They keep me up at night. But I’m writing it anyway because there’s a chance it could be great. And if it’s not I’ll work even smarter on the next one. I’d rather lose trying than be a loser who doesn’t try. Good luck sister. My fingers are crossed for both of us. xoxo Lisi

  • Arianna says:

    You still on Anjor?

  • vamp0gurrl says:

    my butt hurts 🙁

  • Anjor :) says:

    Is anyone there? I’ve sort of got a dilema and need some help 🙁

  • Meghan says:

    Can there be Gracelet necklaces too?

  • Rebecca says:

    The idea is ah-dorable and I want you to know that I will definitely be purchasing one! It sucks that we have to wait so long, though. I’m with you, Lisi. Gold and brown (ex: 70) all the way! They’re great colors that can pretty much go with any outfit. Any other neutral color for the band is fine too.

  • rujuta says:

    ohmigod i love the whole idea!!:):) sooo cool:D and i really want one so bad:( 7 9 74 75 GOLD:D:D

  • Sarah Oliver says:

    68, 1, and 9!

  • Laila says:

    I second Arianna’s blue-silver, #71 and silver, that is… though that blue is a bit bright, there’s no other one….and, I’m not really a gold person, but I think gold and brown does in fact sound snazzy, and a colour scheme I’d wear. AND, #75, reckon it could go with silver or gold.

    Yeah, I’m not an accessory guru. All mine have been bought for me by people who somehow know my taste, though I myself can’t figure it out (:

  • Nikki says:

    #15 (is that light blue?) and gold or #62 and silver

  • Kailee says:

    Purple gold! Purple is my signature color and gold is fabulous 🙂 I like #69. It looks purple from the picture…either way it’s a gorgeous color! Also I like #9.

  • Madison says:

    I like 9 and gold, personally!

  • Katherine2458 says:

    67 68 71 are my favorite!

  • Mehreen says:

    67, 69 15, Amazing!!!

  • Cara says:

    I really like the 71 blue one. I would like it with silver. I actually want one of these soooo bad now!

  • I like pink and silver or blue and silver!

  • Shaila Gottlieb says:

    I LOVE IT>>>WHAT A GREAT IDEA…LOVE THESE COLOURS…spelled it the Canadian way as it gave me 1 more colour!!!

    Love

    momomoxoxoxox

  • mforgan says:

    i love the idea and what the prototype looks like…i personally love the colour of number 9.

  • Dara says:

    I really like 15 (the lightish blue) with silver, I also like the black with gold and number 9 (the bright red) with gold. Hi Lisi, when the bracelets are done I’ll definetly be buying one 🙂

  • Judy says:

    I dont know but i like number 9 and with the gold envelope it would look ah-mazing (at least in my head it does)

  • Mimi says:

    I really like the thought of 71 (the teal) with silver. 62 and 69 would look nice with the shiny metallic of the enveloppe, too, methinks~

  • Leslie says:

    9, 15, or 68!

  • Gwen says:

    11 & 74 all the way! (: The gold envelope looks gorgeous.

  • Anjor :) says:

    I love the number 5 blue and the gold envelope. The 71 blue and the pink 9 look cute too. I love this idea!

  • #2, 12, & 68 are kool!

  • Kira says:

    I love the idea that the proceeds go to charity. I also like the white and gold. I’m voting for #13

  • Haylee says:

    Lisi- I love this gracelet! It looks good and I can’t wait for The Phoenix Five!

    Zula- Alright-y. 🙂 And I know what you mean about homework! I have 2 tests and a bunch of other hw to do!
    Emily- I loved the movie.

  • Lillie says:

    9, 66, 75
    Yay, getting super excited for P5! Before you know it, it`ll be September 2013 already!

  • emily* says:

    I saw Perks of Being a Wallflower today and it was amazing!!! I read the book so i was really excited for the movie

  • Hero says:

    Color number 68! And I’m on team gold envelope! These are SO adorable and really inspiring! I’m super excited. 🙂

  • vamp0gurrl says:

    I’m into blue and silver, also pink and silver. I also like green and gold, but that’s my third choice.
    Blue=71
    Pink=74
    Green=75

  • emily* says:

    I love #s 5 6 and 16

  • Dylan says:

    P.S. can I get a shoutout?? My b-day is coming up!!

  • Dylan says:

    I really like 62, 13, and 2. Pink is after all my fave Color!!! But white comes up with a close second. And either colored envelope would be good. But if I had to choose just one, I would be a total pink-silver girl all the way!!!!!! <3 you!!

  • Emilie Newman says:

    I like #67 with a gold envelope!

  • Massie Block says:

    Hey Lisi,
    That sounds ah-mazing! I will definatly have to check themout when the come out. Can’t wait!

  • Zula says:

    Haylee – I saw your message on the last blah-g, I’m drowning in homework today, but I’ll reply tomorrow/soon!

  • Alice says:

    I love 67 purple, but personally, I think a neutral color should be offered so that we can have something that goes with more than a few outfits. Anyway, I love the idea and will most definitely put it on my wish list!

  • Syd says:

    Such a cool idea! I like cords 5 (navy) or 6 (brown)!

  • Zula says:

    ooooh! I Love, I want, I neeeeeed! SO cute! I like 11 or 5 for the cord myself <3 I wont be able to wear it at school.. stupid uniform code! but it will 100% be my new favourite out of school accessory! 😀

  • Alisha says:

    This is the first I’m seeing the Gracelets too! And I loooooooove them. I’m so getting one (don’t judge me, Lisi). Black and gold, black and gold. Thank goodness for Miss Riley and that big ol’ smart brain of hers.

  • Laura says:

    Hey Lisi!
    This is so amazing! I seriously can’t wait to get one. I’ll probably have to write my goal in code though, because of some rude people in my class. But it doesn’t matter, its so cute! 😀
    For the colors, I like bright colors, but I’d also want something I can wear with any outfit. Sorry for my indecisiveness but:
    1, 5, 65, 74
    Laura Marie
    PS: I’m dying to read Phoenix Five! Eeep! 😉
    PPS: I love how both are named Vanessa. It’s a sign from the jewerly gods. Gracelets shall be a success! Huzzah! 🙂

  • Arianna says:

    I swear to God, I will never get this query done. I’m about to rewrite it for the 13th time? I’m so frustrated right now it’s heartbreaking. I’m going to cry.

  • Ashley says:

    P.S. Love the little monsters that show up as our anonymous pictures!

  • Ashley says:

    I definitely like 71 the best! I think this is a great idea and I will want one for sure, keep it up Lisi!
