Reusing Old Belts: Tips For Fun Homemade Projects

10 Ways To Reuse An Old Belt

I don’t know about you, but I seem to be so much more sentimental about my belts (and shoes) than I am about other items of clothing. Perhaps it’s because they get worn much more frequently, and thus accumulate a lot more associated memories. Whatever the reason, I’m almost always able to remain reasonable when it’s time to part ways with a tee shirt or dress. Less so with a good pair of jeans, but I get there. An old favorite belt though? I just have a hard time letting go, even when it’s well past wearable.

Which is exactly why I went hunting for inspiration: ideas of how I could keep my old belts, and use them too. And I found some pretty spectacular ones! Thank you, Internet, for aiding and abetting my inner nostalgic hoarder. I love you.

Have you done something cool with an old belt you couldn’t bear to give up? Let us know in the comments!
