I have been collected leather belts from thrift stores, for this very thing!
I had to wait for the chair!
The chair finally came my way!

After I shined the wood up, I took off the seat!

My trusted basket of leather belts, don’t you have one?

Then I was a’belt weaving away!

Not sure if I will keep the belts on this chair or not yet…
as well if I should cut the ends of the belt off or let them hang!

Love how the colors in the belts bring out the colors in the wood!

I think this technique turns a plain chair into a conversation/center/art piece!
I love the chair so much…I think I am not going to leave the belts on it as the shape of the back and the wood speak for themselves.
So, I will go back to waiting for the perfect chair again!
