The Garter -
A friendship bracelet
In sweden during the 1800s and
1900s it was customary for a close
friend or sister to give the bride a
garter. The garter was made by the
giver and usually embroidered with
flowers, pearls or lettering.
The garter has these days lost its
functionality, and is usually not
handmade, but the tradition remains.
A grown up friendship bracelet one
might say.
