I keep Snakey's shedded skins in boxes (they kind of stink a bit), but I wanted to make wallets of belts or some form of clothes/accessories with them but one of my parents said you can't really do that with 'dead' skin.

You could always lay them out an laminate them onto a wallet or belt. |

Shed skin is way too brittle to make anything out of. The only purpose I've seen so far was a woman sticking pieces of skin over some of her artworks to give it a scaly look ^^ |

Personally I would just throw them out but then I'm not very sentimental/creative lol
I doubt that you would be able to make anything from shed skins due to how brittle they get when they dry out; they'd probably be more likely to just tear. I know that items can be made from the skins of dead snakes but I'd have thought that would be very different due to those skins not being dry.
I could be wrong though; as Kellog said, best to Google it :) |

I'm not sure why Snakey's shedded skin smells, I've never noticed that with mine. All I can think of is that you are putting the shed skin in the box before its fully dried out. I don't keep mine, but I've only had juveniles/adults. If I'd had a hatchling I probably would have kept the first clean shed and a few more over the years as it grows.
I'm not sure about making it into a wallet, you'll have to google it. I know someone who was making one from the skin of his first ever corn when it died, but that is very different.
