I have a really, really good idea to share with you today! and I am super excited about it.
Everyone loves Anthropologie and their unique clothing and home items. If you go to their website, go to the "home" section, and click the "for the decorator" section, there is a place for you to request fabric and wallpaper swatches. I did this once and received a ton of samples, some of which were genuine leather!
The swatch is about 6x4". See photo below ::
I sat there for months trying to figure out what I could do with them.... ...
Then one day I was playing around and I started to cut it into strips. Then I braided them. Then I embellished it. Ta-Da ... leather bracelet! I had just bought a fairly expensive leather cuff bracelet from the mall, and I realized this leather from Anthropologie can be used for the same thing! omg so excited. creative juices flowing, I ordered some more swatches. I will post new creations as I make them.
PS I know this bracelet is a little "jacked" but its just a prototype! If you decide to do the same thing, I'd LOVE to see your creations too!
