Fidget Spinner

Unless you’ve been on another planet you’ve likely seen people people spinning a colorful little device between their fingers. It’s called a “fidget spinner” and it’s the latest craze.

Basically a fidget spinner consists of a bearing in the center of a design made from any of a variety of materials including brass, stainless steel, titanium, copper and plastic. Invented in the nineties, fidget spinners has been advertised as helping people who can’t sit still and can’t focus on a single task by acting as a release mechanism for nervous energy or stress. Spinners come in all different shapes, sizes and colors, and even with LED lights. It was only a matter of seconds before somebody would come up with one in the shape of a cannabis leaf. Shana Wilkinson, of Shay’s Underground wholesale, did just that — the mult-stem leaf was the perfect shape for maximum spinnability. Shanna upped the game by including a faux leather storage pouch.
