Brooches and Pins

Pick a brooch or pin with a lot of sparkle to add toward the front of your belt. You are looking for something bold, but not cheesy. There are so many animal, flower and funky shapes to choose from with brooches. Even holiday pins find their way to the thrift store.

When you are perusing the brooches, keep in mind how you intend to add them to the belt. Do they still have working clasps? Are there any jewels missing?

Next, let's attach the pins to the belt.
