DIY Gift: Lace Belt



Handmade gifts are a must for me, I try to think of items that are simple enough to make fore everyone, but also with a touch of my style.  These crochet/lace belts are perfect and practical for most. 

Supplies:
You will want to get a strap that measures the D-Ring width or slightly smaller. The length should be waist measurement + 7" (child 5"). So you will need at least 1-2 yards per belt depending on this.  Because it's a gift, getting a waist size will be hard so look up standard waist measurements based on size and add the additional 7". 

    DIY instructions:


    Measure belt: You will need more length in the crochet then the ribbon. Mine measured 42 inches for the ribbon and 52 for the crochet.  This is about medium, so if they'rre smaller you will need to adjust.

    Top stitch the crochet going down each side.



    You will have some extra crochet you will fold over the wrong side and sew both sides down again.


    Place the rings on the other side and sew over. This is the only belt I will wear, great with jeans because it doesn't have the added bulk.

    7. Okay, silly question maybe, but how do you have it looped on that the free end is under and the belt D's can be worn open?? Love the look, but I can't figure out how you put it on! LOL

    11. I have the same "silly question" as C. I always struggle with this buckle style. I've never seen one that appears like yours, and I also like the look. Plus, where do you put the side that always ends up flopping down on one side? If there are no belt loops I would have to tuck it into the belt and it doesn't look that great. Could you tell us your secret?

    14. Trading games with friends and family is a simple and affordable way to ensure you can play new titles without paying an arm and a leg. Create a network of traders in such a way that one person buys a new title and the rest share it once the first player is done.

    15. Sebuah agen hanyalah pihak yang melayani permainan sedangkan bandar judi ialah pihak yang memimpin proses permainan, jadi seorang bandar merupakan pihak yang benar-benar memahami cara bermain dari jenis permainan yang dipimpinnya. Agen adalah perantara yang akan melayani para pemain yang ingin bermain, jadi dalam lingkup judi online agen ini merupakan pihak yang menyediakan situs untuk bermain judi online. Situs link alternarif pokerace99 2018 seperti ini tetap menyediakan permainan poker online dalam bentuk PC namun juga menyediakan aplikasi android untuk mempermudah para membernya dalam bermain poker online.

    20. The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought you have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.
