I made a very simple belt. Basically my velvet bedroom curtains were too long by about a foot, so me and my mom cut that bit off and she finished off the curtain edges.
So I was left with 2 foot of dark blue velvet that I was not going to just throw away. So I made a belt from one section ( I am using the other for patches )
I used these buttons ( slightly steam punk-ish , and they are silver )

And this is the belt upon my gigantic self
