Do you find it hard to throw away <a href=\"http:\/\/craftingagreenworld.com\/2011\/06\/21\/how-to-make-a-pillow-without-polyfill\/\">leftover scraps<\/a> of string simply because you don\u2019t want to create any more waste, and it may come in handy someday? Today is that day!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s easier than you think to whip these little bits into a\u00a0string\u00a0belt that will become the cherry on top of a fashionable friend\u2019s outfit. <a href=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/2015\/12\/green-giving-how-to-upcycle-a-hole-y-blanket-into-a-scarf\/\">Giving a green gift<\/a> like this upcycled belt is the perfect way to share your fondness for the earth with loved ones. Here\u2019s how you can pull it together yourself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Gather up bits of strings in complimentary colors. Any pieces that are about five inches or longer will work well, so rescue those scraps from the landfill! You will also need a pair of scissors and a yardstick or tape measure.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19066\" src=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-2.jpg\" alt=\"supplies\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> With some new twine or ribbon (pick something sturdy as this piece will be the base for the belt), cut one length that is about five inches longer than your gift recipient\u2019s waist.<\/p>\n<p>Grab a variety of strands from your scrap basket and line them up with one end of your base string. Tie all of these strands together in a double knot, creating a little loop.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19067\" src=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-3.jpg\" alt=\"tie a knot\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-3-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Lay out your measuring device and locate the spot that is four inches from your loop. Note how many strands will end between this 4-inch mark and the 8-inch mark. If there are three strings that end before the next knot, grab three new scrap strings in similar colors and place these with their starting ends at the 3-inch mark. Carefully tie a knot at four inches, making sure to secure the new and old strings together.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19068\" src=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-4.jpg\" alt=\"four inch mark\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-4.jpg 640w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-4-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> Continue to tie a knot every four inches, adding new strands as old ones end. Keep going until you have almost reached the end of your base strand, then tie everything into another small loop just as you did in the beginning.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19069\" src=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-5.jpg\" alt=\"knot every four inches\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-5.jpg 640w, https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Image-5-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 5:<\/strong> Trim away the excess strands hanging from all knots.
