Don't throw your spoiled belts. Look what I did to my broken belts. Not that I cannot afford a new one but recycling it with some creativity do have some personal satisfaction.

The purple on the right was given to me by a friend is the original which I still have with me.


The purple in the center was bought and used about 1 year ago but the keeper broke. I replaced it with one from my old leather belt's buckle. I usually throw away the old belts but keep the buckle, just in case I need it in future. The future is here.


The Orange one on the left was brand new and never used until I wanted to cut it shorter to suit my waist. After cutting while trying to fit the belt back to the buckle, it broke when I was trying to snap it in position. I then left it aside until I can find a replacement part. I found the buckle at a sale in Jurong West. The new belt with the buckle costs only $2. Yes, $2, you did not read wrong. I bought 3 for replacing my 2 other coloured belts, a yellow and a blue. Was not shown in the pictures above but I have them replaced. 


So there you have it, recycle your belts. Don't throw away the buckles. You don't know when they will come in handy.  Beer

I think every human has this creative ability. Just that it has yet to be put to test.  Very Happy
