jeweler
launches
"Back
The
Blue"
line in
support
of
police
officers,
donates
hundreds
of
necklaces
to
female
officers
Patrons
can
nominate

on the

WATERFORD,
MI - In
support
of
female
police
officers
in the
Detroit-area
and
across
the
country,
Pretty
Hunter
has
unveiled
an
exclusive,
handmade
necklace
with
sale
proceeds
directly
benefiting
the
officers.
For each
BACK the
BLUE
necklace
purchased,
Pretty
Hunter
will
give one
BACK the
BLUE
necklace
to a
female
police
officer.
Individuals
also can
nominate
an
officer
to
receive
a FREE
necklace
at no
cost by
visiting
the
company’s
website.
“We feel
strongly
about
supporting
and
respecting
police
officers.
They put
themselves
in
harm’s
way to
serve
and
protect
us every
day.”
said
Tricia
Auten,
founder
and CEO
of
Pretty
Hunter.
“The
BACK the
BLUE
necklace
is our
way of
supporting
female
law
enforcement
officials
in the
wake of
recent
events,
and
inviting
the
public
to join
us in
this
effort.”
BACK the
BLUE is
a
passionate
cause
for
Auten;
one of
her
close
friends
is a
dedicated
police
sergeant.
In a
recent
conversation,
Auten
discussed
her
desire
to
design
jewelry
to honor
law
enforcement.
Following
the
tragic
events
in
Dallas
on July
7, Auten
was
inspired
to
create
the BACK
the BLUE
necklace
to
provide
a
necklace
to as
many
female
law
officers
as
possible,
so they
could
wear
their
love for
what
they do
or
simply
put a
smile on
the
officer’s
face.
Made at
the
Pretty
Hunter
warehouse
in
Waterford,
Mich.,
the BACK
the BLUE
necklace
retails
for $36
and
features
one
spent
bullet
round
surrounded
by
Swarovski
crystals
in a
1-inch
by
1.25-inch
dog tag.
The
40-caliber
round
was
collected
from
local
gun
ranges
and
selected
because
it is
the
issue of
most
departments.
It is
set in a
background
of black
crystals
with a
band of
blue
crystals
across
the
middle
to match
the
mourning
band
protocol
for a
fallen
officer.
Since
launching
BACK the
BLUE
this
past
weekend,
Pretty
Hunter
has
already
given
away
hundreds
of
necklaces
to
female
police
officers,
and has
fielded
more
than 350
Facebook
messages
of
support
from
across
the
country.
To
simplify
the
process
of
nominating
a female
police
officer
to
receive
a
donated
BACK the
BLUE
necklace,
Pretty
Hunter
has
added a
page on
its
website,
