Thank you to all those who sent lanyards. It was a pleasure making keychains and luggage tags for you in return. It was like mailing out my own version of pixie dust.
After making and mailing out quite a few key chains and luggage tags, I took a break from the repurposing project for awhile. As a part of my spring cleaning I am doing several reduce/reuse/recycle/repurpose/reclaim projects. After organizing the lanyards, I decided to sell some keychains, key fobs, zipper pulls on ebay made with the lanyards to recoup some of the cost for materials and postage.
This was a fun project and making these again is reminding me of all the wonderful people here. Thank you for sharing and being a part of a project to help reduce waste. I hope you all are still enjoying your keychains.
And to those who are into reducing waste in our world- I even posted the hardware from the lanyards for 99 cents for the buckles and metal clip parts so someone repurpose those.
Waste not, want not
