Bobby Belt


I had the idea for this when I was visiting NYC in September. Then school happened and I haven't had time to make it until now, ten months later.

Procedure: I spray painted a whole pack of bobby pins gold, and then went to Sally Beauty supply to buy more and saw that they sold gold ones. Less time inhaling toxins is fine with me.

I bought some pretty black elastic at Stitches and found the interlocking belt buckle on a belt at Value Village, which I also spray painted but it's already flaking.

It is a less threatening take on the bullet belt. The wearer is armed to help a burlesque performer keep her wig on.
