Boy’s Belts

March 26, 2013

 I have been asked by a number of people,  “Where do you get the boy’s belts ?!”.   You may want to have a seat…  I made them. * Shocker*
They are some of my old belts, and some I find at thrift stores. Want to make some for your munchkins?Just find a  LEATHER  belt, that  is considerably  bigger than  the size you will need.  You need leather so that when you cut it,  it will not fray.

Take the measurement  of the recipients  waist and add 4-5″.  You will simply cut off the excess of the belt.  I   have found my sewing scissors work well to cut through the belt.  I kind of cringe every time I do. But, it does really work well.

Use the end that you just cut off (the end with the holes) as a template.  Lay it on top  of the   freshly cut end and mark where your new set of holes will be.  I  just used a  drill  with a 1/4″ bit.

Then stand back and admire your work…

“Hey Wyatt show me your belts”…

That works too…

    No way. That was too easy. You can totally bet I am going to do this when Vince is a bit bigger.

Meet Corey

Hi everyone, my name is Corey, and I have a problem. I can’t leave well enough alone… The best therapy usually involves a variety of power tools. So, in the few “spare” moments I am not entertaining my two beautiful, rambunctious, boys, I can typically be found hunched over a sewing machine and/or covered in sawdust. All in the efforts to create a perfect balance of aesthetics and practicality in our home.
