This bracelet was made from buttons clipped off a business suit I wore in my former corporate life. During the early 80s most female managers were wearing boxy three piece man-tailored suits in an attempt to be accepted into the Old Boys Club. Since I knew that would NEVER happen for me, I did not make as great an effort to fit in. When I wear the bracelet now, I give thanks that I never have to wear another suit, or carry another briefcase to another corporate meeting. I am blessed to be able to live the life I do.
The artisians on these sights also use recycled materials to create useful and decorative items.
I love the comic book bracelet on this page.

Here I can't decide between the safety pin bracelet or the typewriter key bracelet. Love both!
