Eco Skateboard Jewelry by MuKee Posted: 07 Feb 2012 04:00 AM PST Broken skateboards need not be sent to the dump. Not if Derek Keenan, the artisan behind MuKee on Etsy can help it!

He adds, "Any small scratches or scuffs on them all come from their previous life as a skateboard, making each pair unique and one of a kind!" They are fun and environmentally friendly.

MuKee also offers belt buckles sporting a rectangle of reclaimed skateboard in the front. Before You Go :
