Have an old necktie laying around that you want to put to use? Submit those ties to Sharee Johnson of Sharee Designs and she”ll craft one awesome looking purse or clutch for you. This reminds me of a Project Runway challenge and I must say Sharee “made it work”. Sharee’s bags are quirky, sophisticated and sassy; before today I didn’t think the 3 could coexists. The best part is she is re-purposing an otherwise useless necktie into adorable clutches and handbags. So you get a fabulous little handbag, the planet gets one less tie in a landfill and Sharee get’s some serious brownie points for putting it all together. Win, Win, Win! Have a look at some of her creations below, and when you are done kicking yourself asking “Why didn’t I think of this first?!” mosey on down to Sharee’s store and support sustainable fashion, why don’t cha?!
From my studio I create the treasures you see here. I love working with metals and fire. I like to combine metals like copper, brass, silver, and vintage silver plate. It’s tricky because of the different melting temperatures of the metals, but it keeps me interested. I’m very tactile, so my purses and other little luxuries will often have velvet or silk or something else sumptuous that you can’t stop touching. One of my favorite things is combining colors and textures.
