If you didn't see my project of an headband with a belt, here's the story:
I had two pairs of boots thrown away, I kept the belts. I call them belts, I don't know what else I should call them.
PLEASE NOTE. They have the elastic holding the buckle (they were already like that) to the rest with a safety pin because I took the thread out because it was starting to get too thin and it would break easily. I'm going to sew them again, as soon as I find my thin needle.
Anyway, I get plenty of comments on them. They even ask where I got them (I say 'Old boots, took the belts out, studded them and voilà !' They think it's even cooler that I made them) Specialy from males, I don't know why. Maybe they look manly?
At first I would wear them plain, but then got tired and decided to add something.
ANOTHER NOTE: I separated the how-to of the bracelets, they are not both with studs.

So, materials. Probably you have something that makes the part of putting the studs easier. To make my job easier, I used pliers and a thick safety pin! You will understand why that bracelet and the thread on step 3.

I'm going to start with the one with golden studs. I found them at my grandma's house, in two sizes.
I pushed the studs against the fabric to get the marks whre they wil pierce through. I made the holes with the safety pin, so it was much easier to put the studs. Turned the bracelet so I could close the studs with the pliers.
You can check the pictures too see how it is on both sides. -

The silvery one. They are not studs! But they could be, I just didn't find studs. Instead, I found these, they are like beads and I made another bracelet with the ones that were left. (check the materials piture) You can see that I used thread to sew them onto the bracelet.
