I have always loved creating things! My passion for repurposing came when my sister and started a small business called Repurpose Revolution. We took on the challenge of taking vintage or discarded items or furniture and give them new life as a completely different item.
I wanted to share this repurpose idea that took the rustic look of worn, leather belts and paring them with the bling of vintage brooches. These unique leather cuffs flew off the shelves. I had one customer ask me to create “memory” cuffs for granddaughters whose beloved grandmother had just passed away. I used their grandmother’s vintage brooches, bracelets, and earrings to create one-of-a-kind wearable memory cuffs.
Each brooch is hand sewn into the leather belts.
