Inspiring story from our blog included with each purchase

Our Story

In 2014 Jenna Righi went through multiple losses. She was heartbroken, jobless, and buried in college debt but knew she needed to relocate back home to Columbus, OH from Florida to restart her life. On the 17 hour car ride home she made a promise to herself that when she got back on her feet she would pay it forward to others going through tough times.

3 years later she was riding her bike and the chain fell off; she looked down and had an epiphany: the symbolism of “links” and connection while being broken hit her, and she suddenly realized she could make jewelry charms out of the broken bike chain- Link Before You Sink “LBYS” was born that day.

Our jewelry is worn as a reminder you're not alone; our pieces were created to link with you.

LBYS has since expanded to many styles but each includes a link as a reminder we’re linked through life’s ups & downs. We’ve now been linked in 19 countries.

Inspiration Behind this piece

This jewelry link was one of our first we created! Fun fact- A "flat link" and a "double link" are connected together to make up a bike chain. This style uses the flat link piece and we put it on a paperclip chain

Our Link Guarantee

30 day money-back guarantee. Love your link or leave it!

We are so confident in the quality of our links, we also offer FREE 90-day repairs.

Warning- this product has been known to cause happy tears!

Gifts with meaning are cool, but gifts that forever connect you with your loved one are cooler! Our Paperclip Link Necklace is one of our first styles created- the OG link! Inspired by a broken bike chain, it was made for you to be worn as a reminder we’re linked through life’s up & downs. This handmade necklace makes the perfect gift to show your special *link* you’re connected with them no matter what happens in this crazy game called life!

Adult best friend necklaces

I purchased the Thick and Thin necklaces for myself and two of my lifelong best friends with the coordinates of our hometown on the back. First the necklaces are great quality and arrived very quickly after purchase. Second, One of these friends recently beat cancer so it was a good reminder we are there for each other through thick and thin. Also, this purchase was made during a time that benefitted a scholarship that is near and dear to me.
