The NFB sells an alphabet bracelet with metal tiles for each letter of the
alphabet.  I  have no idea where they get the braille tiles, but we might be
able to find out.  They could be used inconjunction with other beads to make
name bracelets or other sayings.  This could be costly.  It could be
something to look in to.
