Abstract

A wearable magnetic band comprises a cord and plurality of magnets and/or magnetically attractable items coupled to the cord. The plurality of magnets are rotatable and are able to spin in order to removably couple to each other in order to form a closed loop with the cord and secure the wearable magnetic band around a body part of a user or an object.
