  Step 1

  Fuse plastic bags together,so you get the base for the belt.Make it long and wide as you want.I used black garbage bags.
  You have a great how to on how to fuse plastic bags on here,made by -Sarah wearing doodled on converse- ,just look it up.

• 

  Step 2

  Turn the fused belt around,get a circle shaped object(the size that you want your belt to be)and draw it around.
  If you make the other side of the belt white as I did,its much easyer.

• 

  Step 3

  You will get this,when your done.Dont forget to leave a strip on the beginning and end of the belt for the belt buckle.
  Cut the circles around,leaving out the part where the circles are touching.

• 

  Step 4

  You can use any other shape that you like.
  Put the studs on the belt.
  I had a cheap studded belt that was broken and i got the studs off.

• 

  Step 5

  Pull the buckle on the part that you left on the beginning and pierce it through.

• 

  Step 6

  fold it on the back of the belt.

• 

  Step 7

  Sew it together.

• 

  Step 8

  Youll get this.
  Now make a few holes on the other end of the belt.

• 

  Step 9

  Enjoy! :)

Very original and looks great - I thought it was leather when I first clicked on the picture and would not have guessed that it was made from fused plastic bags.
