New Tutorial - Vintage Fabric D-Ring Belt


20 June 2008

Our newest tutorial (Sponsored by Bernina!) shows you how to refashion one of Dad’s old neckties into a stylish belt for You or your Pop!

Whether we need to keep our pants from slip sliding away or cinch up our waist line, we refashionistas have found a way to make it work without breaking the bank. This customizable recycled fabric belt is made from vintage fabric, some stiff interfacing, and a pair of d-rings. We used an old silk necktie but any fabric would do in the right amount. This one is quick, easy and perfect for DIY gifts for him, her, or YOU!

Hi, I made a tea cozy for a couple who were getting married. The wife loves tea pots and I took the ties of her husband to be to make the cozy. Where can I send the directions? Thanks for your great web site..Maria Spotts
