We’ve seen all sorts of fun recycled designs and DIY projects, but this is the first time we’ve featured a rug made of old belts. The circular mat is made of dozens of different leather belts, all about the same thickness, in an array of neutral colours. I’m guessing from the dull hues that the Branch Home Vintage Belt Floor Mat must be made of men’s belts, but together, it makes for a pretty neat, eco-chic statement piece. Ironically, at the same time, it reminds me of those swirly, rainbow-coloured oil blobs you see in parking lots.  The Branch Home Vintage Belt Floor Mat ($688) has rescued vintage leather belts destined for landfills by mounting them together to become a cushy mat for the floor of your home. The combination of rich, aged tones and textures of each belt comes together to resemble quite aptly the patina acquired by your hardwood floors — albeit you've probably never wrapped your floors around your waist.
