A good way to recycle old belts is to turn them into dog collars. Measure your dog's neck, then add 3-4 inches to the measurement. Cut the belt to the appropriate length, rounding the end. Make new holes using an awl and a hammer. You could decorate the collar with rhinestones, buttons, etc.

Why didn't I think of that?! It's a great idea! And I love the part about decorating it too. Brilliant! Thanks for sharing.
If it's a skinny belt you could make cat a collar, too ;-)
