TwittaBling™ offers fashion-forward Twitter™-inspired accessories such as necklaces, earrings, rings, wedding bands, and bracelets in sterling silver as well as 14k yellow and white gold. Users can customize their jewelry by choosing their Twitter handle, or a special trending topic, and by adding diamond or Swarovski crystals into their personalized fonts. In addition to choosing unique fonts and extra “bling”, customers can choose usernames in 3D or engraved formats, and customize chain length to suit their personal style.

While not affiliated with Twitter, the concept of TwittaBling was formed during a eureka moment of founders Shelley Shafran (@itzuvi) and Yoni Wiseman (@bydahway). The concept is simple: to create accessories for users of one of the world’s most popular online applications for offline use – with bling, of course.

The scoop:
#TLVTweetup July 2009 - on a balmy Tel Aviv night, two friends joked about how “not everyone can rock the username t-shirt” when simultaneously ”but if it was ‘bling’!” had them #ROFL. Shortly followed by “hey, what if…?” TwittaBling was born.
