Belt Buckle Upcycle with Scrap Fabric

We all have a few belts laying around that either just don't fit or are wore out or just not fashionable anymore. I had two such belts rattling around in my closet. I decided rather than put them in the Salvation army donation pile I would upcycle them in to something else I could wear.

Updates With Fabric from Tonic Living

I love fabric and I can't stop using them to change the look of our home. Recently I purchased some new fabric for our bedroom from my favorite website Tonic Living . I chose two fabrics to update my bedroom pillows.  New Chevron in Blue and   Good Life Gridwork in Spring.  They arrived extremely quickly and the fabric is of very high quality and very soft. I wanted a change that more suited the spring and summer and our love of the beach.  Here is our bedroom before.. Although I still love the fabric, it just not working with the art work or rug, so it was time to change. And here it is now....  Better colors and lighter feeling I just love it and the fabric is perfect.  Now I think I am set for the summer! Enjoy!
