Buckled up Thursday.

 

Wonderful vintage buckles can be used not only for belts but for a whole lot of craft ideas.

Add them to some vintage fabric covered circles and use as napkin holders, you will be the envy of your friends. Place some vintage fabric around a flower vase or plant pot and put some velvet or silk vintage ribbon around the centre with a vintage buckle in the centre. The ideas are endless.
