Kalesy’s Recycled Seatbelt Bag

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

At the Cape Ann Beer and Blog meet-up at Cape Ann Brewing Kalesy rolled up carrying this bag made from  seatbelts.  How bad ass is that when you think about it?  You gotta figure this thing can take a beating if it’s made from seatbelts.  After googling it I found the website of Harveys Seatbelt Bags

I love companies that embrace social media  and Harveys site is a prime example.  They actually have a Blog called SeatbeltBlog, check it out.

Blog Post about a Blog Post That References this Blog

Here’s a return shout out- HEYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!

Life’s a Typo is a blog from a gal named Kalesy(never heard that one before).

She’s been blogging a long while and updates pretty damn frequently over the course of a couple years now. That shows a real dedication. I know because there are just some days where I think nah I don’t feel much like putting anything up.

Then I think about the random folks I meet on the street that say they look forward to reading my blog daily or seeing what pics were put up. Then there’s the emails from folks that have moved away and they tell me that they love seeing pics of places around town. That sort of stuff motivates me.

I know I’m not the most gifted photographer. My theory is shoot a bunch and then go through and hope you got a few right. If a pic isn’t exactly crisp but gets the point accross, I’ll generally still post it. My intention isn’t to be a famous photographer, it’s just to share and log my life the way I see it and present what interests me.

Kelesy wrote a nice entry about my little blog so I thought I’d return the favor and give her props for keeping at it like she does. I’m sure there are folks that look forward to reading her blog and click on a bookmark to it every day, hoping that she posted somethin.

Props go to you Kalesy!
