Overheard at #CurlingNightInAmerica taping: Have you heard about @beadzbydre ? Not only do I own #BeadzbyDre I gifted 2 of them to 🐐 @niklasedin & he wore them throughout #WMCC2021 *fangirl squee* The #curlingGOAT has both the Keystone (originally designed by Dreylin in honor of Kaitlyn Lawes) and the Ali (first bracelet Dreylin designed). I like to wear the Ali and Keystone bracelets together w/ the Beach. I highly recommend folks check out BeadzByDre to find out more about the history of both the bracelets & their designer, especially if you want to support a young man while channeling your inner curling legend. With or without #NikEdinsHat . . Word of warning for international folks since BeadzByDre is based in Canada: I ordered my #bracelets on March 16th intending for them to be a birthday present for myself (my birthday is April 1st) and Nik’s bracelets timed for Worlds which he received w/o incident. Unfortunately, the first shipment got lost so I didn’t get the replacement bracelets until 2 months later and only after Dreylin contacted FedEx. I guess better late than never - I still mourn the loss of the Team Kevin Koe toque I won on FB last year that you can’t buy anywhere that I never received, presumably due to C19 related international shipping issues (I won something in the Sandra Schmirler Foundation auction after the Brier/Scotties that was a full month delayed and only after the foundation opened an inquiry w/ the shipping company). . . Olympic gold medalist Matt Hamilton not only knows about BeadzByDre but was also seen wearing one of the bracelets during CNIA. I actually had a funny moment w/ the legendary Sue Cassidy in the bathroom in Irvine of all places. We were washing our hands and she asked if I knew about the bracelets so I showed her my wrist. Turns out we were both wearing multiple bracelets and twinning w/ the Ali, so of course we had to take a pic. https://www.instagram.com/p/CTUmVDSFHHQ/?utm_medium=tumblr
