Recycle, Repurpose & Reuse

Two weekends ago, Cristy and I went to four estate sales. One didn't even have enough stuff to be considered a garage sale, let alone an estate sale. If we could give tickets for bad sales they would have definitely been fined! But the other three sales were average. One of the best things we bought was the cool vanity stool in one of the pictures earlier in the blog. But we also found a cool stash of leather belts at one of them. They belonged to "Smitty". We know this because his name was tooled on the back of every belt. We stopped at JoAnn's on the way home and proceeded to create the coolest bracelets, like the one above. Katlyn came by and loved them! She wanted one made from the actual name part of the belt, so her bracelet says "Smitty". She wore it home that night. We bought ten belts, so we have our work cut out for us. But it's our newest obsession. Let me know what you think. Are they cute? Will they sell? Do you love them as much as we do?
