Double Headed Serpent Belt
by: Rochelle Kilmer
While scrolling through Facebook one day, there was a postabout this beautiful Aztec sculpture from the 15th/16thcentury.
This Double Headed Serpent became the inspiration behind mybelt.
I
used the gorgeous, turquoise scaled Regaliz leather forthe body of my
serpent and Swarovski rivoli end caps for my heads. Before gluingon the
end caps, I strung two charm holders onto the leather and attached a
jumpringto the loop on each; this is where I connect the spring ring
clasp for myclosure.
The leather is a little
bit hard to handle, just go with theleathers natural curve and it will
create a bit of cross over under the clasp(as seen in the pictures
below).
And your belt is done!! Wonderfully paired with that littleblack dress for any occasion!
