Press Release Summary: Sterling Silver Ring Creates A Beautiful Reminder: Be Kind

Press Release Body: Humble, TX, October 30, 2008 -- Have you ever heard of tying a
string around your finger to help remember something? String-Ring, The Kindness
Reminder Ring, was created to promote kindness by modernizing this old custom.

With the hope of encouraging kindness, this interactive piece of jewelry was
designed to be threaded with a piece of interchangeable colored strings. Inspired by
the Anglo-Saxon tradition of tying a string around ones finger to remember
something, in this case, to remember kindness. Each String-Ring comes with a set of
20 strings that are intended to remind you of the particular act of kindness
represented by the color of string you chose. The purpose of this trendy ring is not
simply aesthetic, but to set a new fashion in kindness by "Passing It On!" (Passing
on kindness that is ... String-Ring's tag line).

Since the launch of the site in April, several noticeable publications have
recognized the quality and uniqueness of the concept. The Houston Chronicle, Tulsa
World, and Orlando Sentinel newspapers, as well as online advice source, About.com
have featured Tina's story and rings.

The colored strings can be changed as often as desired depending on the message you
wish to remember. For example, red or pink is the color of love and is a reminder to
be kind to one another. Blue represents tranquility, and promotes patience with
others. Purple stands for empathy and serves as a sign to be tolerant of the
differences between us. Silver symbolizes wisdom and understanding and is a reminder
to forgive. Gold is the color of wealth and acts as reminder to give "not just
money, but your attention, time, knowledge, or even a smile. Green is a reminder to
respect the environment and all other living things. Orange represents energy and
enthusiasm and is a reminder to laugh" "Especially at ourselves," said Tina
Mansfield, the ring's creator.

Tina has donated the first 100 String-Rings to The Rachel's Challenge Project.
Rachel was the first victim of the Columbine school shooting in 1999 and her father,
Darrell Scott, travels the globe speaking to high-school students at assemblies in
the hope of promoting kindness and tolerance. She is also working with Vanessa's Big
Heart foundation, an organization funding research into the causes and cures for
pediatric heart disease.

The rings are priced at $24.95 each. Log on to www.string-ring.com for more
