Repurposed Leather Wristlet

Description

After crafting/sewing, thrifting happens to be my favorite hobby.
I think I have scoped out just about all of my local thrift/goodwill/salvation army shops in my area.
I love going there with nothing in mind and coming out with something supercool.
A few of my latest trips have produced leather skirts.
I probably won't wear leather skirts.
And I like the idea of offering leather goods in my shop.
So I decided to cut up the skirts and make some amazing wristlets!
Recycling is cool!

This one is a hunter green leather wristlet. Inside you will find a very pretty and sweet pink tiny flower cotton lining.
I hand-stitched a coordinating wool felt flower on the wristlet's exterior.
Lovely!

8 inches wide x 4 inches high, with a 12 inch strap
