Beaded Sash/Belt

Mitch617

I want a beaded belt or sash to wear with my dress, but the one at the bridal shop was $200. I was sure I could find a better deal somewhere else but I'm finding out many are even more expensive! And the more affordable ones just don't look very nice. Any ideas on where to get one? The kind I liked was a satiny ivory ribbon with some pearl beading and some other beads, but not too blingy with chunky rhinestones.

The one I tried on at David's was close to $200, which I wasn't willing to spend. I went back a few weeks later and found one I really liked for $50. I think they had just gotten a ton of new ones.

I just ordered one from eBay for $40, shipping included. It has a mixture of rhinestones and pearls. I was hesitant to order something online without seeing it up close, but I was in the same position as you and couldn't justify spending hundreds of dollars on an accessory I'd only wear once. I recieved the belt this week and, luckily, I love it!

Do you like this? I bought it for myself but now I don't need it so it's never been used. I am pretty sure I'm in your area (MA) and will sell it to you for very cheap ($25?).

I also purchased my bridal belt on Etsy.

I'm so close to buying this one, but I have this thing about seeing products in person first before buying. It's $59 on Etsy.

Thanks everyone, I am having better luck with etsy now that I try it again. I had checked on there a while ago and got discouraged when I saw lots of belts that were in the $100+ price range but now that I look closer there are some nice ones much cheaper. @jenna8984 thanks for the offer and I do like that belt, but I'm looking for one that has more going in in the center and not all the way around. I think the centered design goes better with my dress. Maybe I will take my chances with a $30 one on etsy and bring it to my first fitting to see if it works out.
