belts, belts and more belts!!!

Greetings,

As you all know, I am officially in LOVE with thrifting.  Well, as I stated in an earlier post, I recently decided to make something with belts from the thrift store.  The funny part about the belts is, when I came home with them, my sister wanted to keep one of them for herself.  So, as soon as I saw the belts, I knew EXACTLY what I was going to do with them and who the gift would be for.  I decided to glue the belts on a canvas, spelling out my friend's name.  My favorite item on the canvas is the zipper that I found to put on it!!!  The first letter is made from a chain belt that I took apart, I knew that I had to have the belt when I saw it. 

My friend is the manager of a boutique in Atlanta and also a stylist, so what better person for the belt art right?  So....here is the big unveiling and I hope you all like it.

Stay creative,

Charmel


The belts on canvas for Daryll.  It spells out his name!!  I LOVE the zipper on the end!!!
