Weird Question - what do I do with these watch straps?

I'm a big fan of nylon watch straps, and have quite a few (of the 16mm-18mm variety - Central, J. Crew, Brooks Brothers, etc.). I came across and purchased this bag of watch straps recently - while there were a few 16mm and 18mm straps that I have kept, there are a TON of 12mm straps here. I have no idea what to do with them...any suggestions?

You would have to get a lot of cats to use all of those up. Instead staple them all to a suit that is looking a little worn to inject new life into it and achieve an original and colourful look.

Surely all you can do is sell them, give them away or bin them if you don't want to use them yourself?

Those would be some preppy-ass cats...

can you daisy chain them?

1. Put a bunch together
2. Take to williamsburg
3. mark as retro/vintage
4. sell to hipsters for $200.
5. Profit.

The only thing cooler than a belt is a belt made of mini-belts.
