So, I saw this waistbelt on Ebay: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Gothic-Taillengurtel-Kamee-Rippen-Skelett-Korsett-viktorianisch-S-M-L-/320900139150?pt=DE_Damenunterw%C3%A4sche&hash=item4ab723888e And first I didn't really get that it was a belt, I thought it was a wristband and I thought it was pretty cool. A friend asked me wether to do it myself, how much afford that might take and stuff. I spontaneously decided to just try it :D In wristband-size, of course. ;)

Instructions

  1. Small dscf1408

    Start with a stencil. I copied the shape through my computer screen. Cut out the dark parts.

  2. Small dscf1410

    Transfer it onto fusible interfacing (god, it wasn't easy to find that translation :D). The interfacing has to be quite thin. And white, of course.

  3. Small dscf1412

    Paint it and cut it into shape.

  4. Small dscf1413

    Add shadings :)

  5. Small dscf1414

    Iron it on a piece of white fabric.

  6. Small 8754

    Sew on Lace borders :)

  7. Small dscf1418

    I also added satin ribbon :)

  8. Small dscf1422

    Bow. :)

  9. Small dscf1421

    Sew on a piece of felt on the backside and add a brooch needle. So you can attach it to whatever you like!

  10. Small dscf1424

    For example as a wristband...

  11. Small dscf1428

    If you add a hairclip on the felt it's also possible as a hairclip :) or add feathers and stuff for a fascinator!
