Hearts’ ‘Trigger Happy’ bracelet line puts bullet shells to good work, rather than being left in a heap of waste. “After learning how to shoot, this artisan noticed the number of abandoned bullet casings that littered the trails of seasonal hunters in national parks. Shooting for recreation is an empowering sport, but the debris left behind in national parks is significant,” leading the Hearts designer to use these shells in a beautiful and creative way.
