Leather Bracelet Recycling Project

I saw a leather and chain bracelet on an online shopping site and thought "I can make that, and I have all the materials!"

I picked up some scrap leather at Joann Fabrics a few weeks back and have been holding onto it until I found the perfect project. I wore out a pair of leather moccasins but before I ditched them in the trash, I saved the leather ties. I had some chain scraps that I found and snaps that I bought a on sale a month ago.

I punched holes in the leather and tied the chain to the leather with the leather ties.  I added a few snaps and the outcome is a lovely bracelet reusing materials I had lying around.
