What can I make with old Karate belts??
I have a huge supply of used karate belts of many colors. I don't want to just throw them out because I know someone must have an idea of what you can make with these. I know some people used to make key chain tags with them so there must be something they can be used for. Thank you in advance for your ideas.

Hello Valerie,
They make great Dress belts along with a buckle or Cross body straps for a bag. If you have enough and can stick them or sew them together, maybe make a rug or a cushion etc. Hope that a bit of inspiration for you to work on.
We've made guitar straps from them before and it worked well

Hmm you could sew them together to make almost a fabric
How about using them to make a few colorful throw pillows? OR a wall hanging? OR weave them into a fabric to fit a bench or chair seat.
You could make shelf’s and use the belts for brackets to hold wood up on the wall paint the belts
I would consider weaving them into,a wall hanging! Good luck and stay safe!

Can you weave them and make carpets for in front of the door?
Hi Valerie: You can donate them to a school for children who are a bit challenged and teach them karate. I'm sure they would love to have them.
Weave them into squares and turn them into pillow covers for a couch or chair.
