Tired of losing your keys? I’m here to help.
It’s a recycled bicycle inner tube key strap with a snap on the end so you can attach it to a belt loop, a purse, backpack, around your wrist…you choose.

I recycled some plastic strapping from shipping boxes and put it inside the strap it so it won’t stretch. It also makes it sturdier.

Comes in fabulous black with black or white stitching for that little extra bit of style.

The inner diameter of the keyring is 1 1/4″. Plenty big for a hearty set of keys. The strap is approximately 10 inches in circumference, plenty big for a healthy wrist.

A silver metal heavy duty snap holds it all together so you have one less thing to worry about.

Accessory Bag + Key Ring = 1 Gorgeous Wristlet

I combined my accessory bag with my key chain to make a super versatile wristlet. You can always remove the strap and use it separately.

The bag has a 1 inch bottom so you have plenty of room to store a coin purse, card wallet, a cell phone and lip gloss.

And it’s still small enough to put in a bigger purse or backpack if you like to carry lots of stuff with you.

The inner diameter of the keyring is 1 1/4″. Plenty big for a healthy set of keys. the strap is approximately 10 inches in circumference – plenty big for your wrist. A silver metal rivet holds it together.

The zippered top features a bicycle chain link zipper pull.

It’s a versatile bag made from recycled bike inner tubes, and the gray top-stitching gives it some extra style.

Measures approx. 7 inches wide by 4.5 inches tall with a 1 inch bottom width.

Also, I have some great customers with ideas I like to incorporate into my designs. Here’s the latest:

I made this wristlet by just using the Tools & Accessory bag and adding a strap. The strap is a narrow road bike tube so all I did was stitch it flat a 1/4 inch or so from each edge and then run a narrow piece of strapping plastic I recycled from some large boxes that were shipped to my work. I also have friends give me pieces of the plastic also. The plastic keeps the strap from stretching, strengthens the handle and keeps the stitches from breaking since the thread is a poly-cotton. It is for sale in my Etsy store.

The wristlet below I made by just grabbing my favorite D-Ring bag. I am using one of my keychains for the strap. I really like it. I’ve been carrying it for a couple of weeks now. I like that I can also put a key on it and also take the strap off to use the bag in a purse or backpack. I don’t have one listed yet. It will sell for $25.

I’ve been riding it for almost a month now. Just short trips so far. I’ve carried very heavy loads and nothing at all. It rides well with both. Marko added a bigger chain ring since it was geared so low I couldn’t really pedal going over 13 mph or so.  So, I’m testing a much larger gear set up. So far so good.

Here are some photos.

The wheelbase is 5 inches longer than a standard bike and the rack is part of the frame. My Basil panniers fit perfectly on it. I will get a wicker basket for the front also.

Mark is now building another bamboo and steel frame. Totally different geometry. Can’t wait to try it.

I did the 15 miler on my trusty Bambina with my huge Basil panniers, allowing me to carry 2 small children if need be. Luckily, I didn’t need to.

I met up with my pal Elise, who was riding solo also so we decided to team up for our brewery-seeing tour. She had a real camera so she got some lovely photos. She makes some wild and wacky stuff. Check out her stuff  at Pilot Valve.

We missed a few places since not all were marked for the slightly unawares (myself). Only got stopped by one train (in the west bottoms) and we saw a deer! It was scrambling up and over the railroad tracks heading towards DST on SW Blvd. 

Elise pointed the Pabst tile out or I never would have seen it.  And yes, I made her lay on the ground for this shot.

The beer was cold at the finish line – Knuckleheads – and I ran into a few folks I knew. I managed to end up with 4 beer tix so I made good use of all of them. Pilsner, Amber Ale, Pale Ale and another Pilsner. Love the Boulevard beer. I use their corks in my handlebars.

Caesar made an appearance too! He and Marko made the trip by motorcycle. He was a little overheated but enjoyed all the fuss being made over his handsome furriness.

Kudos to everyone involved in the Tour De Brew. They created a fantastic event. I will definitely be back next year!

They are made from a strip of bike inner tube that I sewed with contrasting stitching. I used a 1 1/4″ split key ring (room for plenty o’ room for keys and grocery store, pet store cards) and I put it all together (OK, I hammered it with conviction) with a metal rivet and washer. The strap is plenty big for your wrist. It’s approximately 10 inches in  circumference.

Anyhoozles, they are on my etsy store now so check ’em out if you need a hand-free way to keep your keys close.  Here’s another photo to tantalize you…

Inner tube wallet with gray contrasting stitching

These have gray contrasting stitching. The few I’ve done have been very popular so I made a fresh batch.

They’ll hold several business or credit cards in each side and it flips shut so nothing ever falls out. It works great in a jeans pocket, jersey pocket, jacket or purse.

They are all different since the tubes are all unique. I like to put a notch on one side and scatter-shot holes on the other. Or both. That way your cards can breathe…

Wallets measure 4 inches wide by approx. 3 inches tall closed. When open, it is approx. 5 3/4 inches tall.

These are great gifts for the guy or gal who doesn’t like to carry a lot of stuff. I use this and a coin purse for my bills and cash and I’m all set.

You can take one home for just $7.

I think they are easy to get the cards in and out of.  What do you think of them?

I just wear a backpack if I have extra stuff. When it gets hot I’ll need a bigger rack maybe cuz I hate having anything on my back in the heat but for now it’s super swell.

Here’s a detail shot. Marko used hemp fibers and epoxy on the joints. It’s very strong.
