What's on your belt?

[Thumper]

Pouch A: cell phone, car key, food coupons, etc.
Pouch B: camera, ID, money  (Thinking of combining these two pouches into one large pouch)
a small drawstring pouch: plastic doggie clean up bags
mug strap w/ mug
ribbon with small sheep attached
wooden bowl ie. dog water bowl
scottish arisaid (held on by belt)

and sometimes my "offical kilt inspector" handkerchief.

[RSLeask]

On my belt is the following...

1) One pouch (for now) with:
  - ID
  - Money
  - Car key
  - Cloves (Djarum Blacks) and lighter, possibly American Spirits, though I usually leave those for the car
2) Tankard holder, complete with tankard (obviously)
3) If allowed, either my bastard sword or longsword

I intend to pick up a second pouch sometime, which will likely be used to split storage for less-used items (such as wallet, which I don't currently carry on me) and keys, and leave the smaller pouch for items I use more, such as cash and smokes.

I'm also contemplating a smaller, single-carry pouch which would hold a coin-purse, and use that for a bunch of the gold $1 coins, just to add a little authenticity to my tav... errr... transactions.  >.>

a) Two flintlock pistols - a Queen Anne Pedersoli ( shoved into me sash) and me trusty double barrel flinty in a holster

b) Me Lusty Leather flap top pouch - money, ID, keys, guitar picks ( always running out of those),  powder measure,  business cards, ink stamp pad, "P" branding iron ( to mark pirates).  Vent pricks for the pistols and for the cannons

c) Pipe pouch w/ tobacco

d) Me Baltimore cutlass ( baldrics having been out of style by 1710 by a few decades)

e) Mug frog ( though I rarely use it, the mug being in pretty much constant use)

The worst day is pirate day:

pouch (or two)
holster/pistol
holster/dagger
key ring w/about 15 skeleton keys (after all, it might unlock something, right?)
iron shackles
flogger
tail (or two)
frog/pewter stein

This year I'll also be carrying my new pipe & ciggies.  I don't often smoke, but I feel the need when I have an adult beverage in hand.  By the end of the day, I feel like my back is collapsing.  I also used to carry a sword, but due to mm curves it tended to stick out at an odd angle.

Ahh!  Gold dollar coins!  Good idea!

[Don Giovanni de' Medici]

Ciao,

I can't say that I have really been to a Renn faire as a playtron or paytron, save my very first experience, so I am always on cast.  There are a few items that I wish I could have, (i.e. Camera!!!), but do not get to carry.  I know you all feel my pain in dressing in the morning; this is the order and what my belts carry...

Sword belt is mounted to the left.

My over-belt usually holds:
(starting on the left)
Large leather pouch, holding--->
--->Wallet/money, cellphone (on silent or off, of course), comp tickets, handkerchiefs
Back mounted Stiletto
Tankard
Hunter's pouch/flat cloth pouch, holding--->
--->timepiece, spoon, wooden straw, more handkerchiefs, food coupons

Finally my sash usually holds:
Canevale masque (on right)
(all on right side)
Strand of pearl beads
Drawstring pouch with give away coins as favors for children



Ladies I feel your pain, for Lord know I feel like I was wearing a bodice when it all come off at the end of the day!  LOL!

Sincero,
Don Vincente di Medici

Some of this makes me glad that I'm not a pirate.
My dresses are heavy enough!

[Elinor Hakebourne]

Thanks for all the ideas, everyone! I'm attempting to hang more things off my belt, so this is giving me good inspiration!

Currently, for me, I have:

-A blue satin pouch (which I hope to change to a more period appropriate fabric)
-A fan from Spain (which I hope someday to change it to something more appropriate...sensing a theme, here?)
-My bell anklet (which, last season, I tied onto my belt and had much success with it - wearing it as an anklet wasn't so great, because it could come undone quite easily)

[Pirateleach]

Small brown pouch for my phone
Mug frog w/ mug
Wide red flat pouch for wallet  and camera and loose stuff
Empty frog for just incase
Medium red pouch for my keys
Black jack W/ glass ball for da rum
Large black and burgandy pouch for tobacco and pipe
Small red and black pouch for a telescope

Belt is weighty indeed

[Queen Bonnie]

 Some day I am going to weigh all my COB. (er- "Stuff" on belt) and  see who has the Most. Me or my Evil Pirate twin sister! LOL.Running out of belt room!

[DonaCatalina]

Queen Bonnie wins hands down...the only unknown now is who comes in second?
