I stumbled upon this bracelet from
Alexander (the Great) McQueen.
It's made out of brass and leather and retails for 66$:

I knew.... somewhere I knew I had something... must be hidden somewhere in one of these boxes...
whooooaa! Found!
I use to love this charm... it's {hem} very vintage.
{I was a teen at the time it was given to me.}

And hey, it's sterling silver! (ok, tarnished sterling silver)
Cleaned the charm, and start looking in the drawer where I keep all the buckles.
And here they are: two straps belonging to some sandals that don't even exist anymore!
Perfect: soft white pearly leather. ... My wrist is getting ready for summer!
I sew the second row on the straps (make sure to use a leather needle) and cut the excess length, the total length of the bracelet is 23" (including the charm).
I believe the few steps are pretty self-explanatory, right?
....free McQueen... sweet!
xox, d.
