Display straps, unlined, 4 to 5 globe bells

The owner of these globe bells wanted to divide them into five straps to give to family members as keepsakes. More about globe bells... 

To keep costs down, she opted for simple unlined straps made from dark brown leather. Each strap has a leather tie at the top that can be used to attach the strap to a doorknob or hanging hook. 

The metal fasteners are exposed on the back of these straps (click "See more images"). I normally make display straps that are fully lined with a second layer of leather to minimize the chance of a door or wall being marred by the fasteners. But the cost is higher to make a lined strap, so an unlined design is a good alternative if the budget is tight.

The 5-bell straps are 15 inches long and the 4-bell straps are about 12 inches long, not including the tie.
