After falling in love with that double length leather Gucci belt from this season, i decided to make my own version, or atleast something similar, as im a student and can't afford the original.

Well. I'm finished... aside from i need some belt tips to go on the ends, and they're proving very difficult to find!

Basically...

My belt is 2cms wide, there is room for tips to be about an inch long, maybe longer.
They need to be silver, preferably pointed or rounded (not flat/rectangular/square), plain (but that isn't a necessity), and preferably fairly cheap.

I've searched Google and Ebay and the like, but i don't know any websites that might supply these.

Does anyone have any suggestions.

I was told that I may just have to buy two belts with them on and remove them, but if I can buy them seperately i'd rather do that.

Thanks :D

where are you located again? i know of a place in melb where i got a custom leather belt made up a while ago. Dusting off the directories and looking up belt/leather goods makers for a starters. if they dont have it ask if they know anyone.

I've always found decent belt suppliers amongst the stalls at markets. Often you'll find leather workers with access to odds and ends.

I live in the UK.
Oh thanks :) The markets In Birmingham could have some, I'll have a gander.
I'll also have a look through the yellow pages, see what a crops up.
Thanks
