Neck Tie Belt Tips:

Mixing class and funk, customize your new accessory.

Neckties are usually not washer friendly. Don’t toss your new belt in the washer, spot clean when needed.
  • This design can also be sewn across instead of safety pinned for a longer lasting belt.
  • The great part about this belt is that you can decorate it after you’re done. Lace on key rings that have charms hanging off of them while you put it through your belt loops. I have also seen these with small charms and bells stitched into the loose ends! The possibilities are endless.
  • Don't put this belt in the washer. Neck ties should be dry cleaned .
