Accessorize your outfit with these fun bracelets — We especially love it when they’re stacked. Super easy and quick to complete! Try to do this with thin unwanted/old belts! Have fun!

Instructions

  1. Small img 1686

    For this tutorial, you’ll need the following items: Old belts Scissors Marker (Not pictured) Leather Punch Studs & eyelets (Optional)

  2. Small img 1687

    Handle the end with the buckle and wrap the belt around your wrist to get the circumference. Get creative! — We’re going with a double-wrap.

  3. Small img 1688

    Mark the centre with a small cross. Remember to give it some allowance!

  4. Small img 1689edit

    Leave about 3cm (or whatever desired length) and snip it off with a pair of scissors. You should now have what looks like a very short belt. Ours measured 16″ but don’t worry if yours is shorter/longer.

    Using the cross you just drew as a guide, make a hole in the centre of the belt with a leather punch. The buckle will now fit through here instead.
