@naiyah thank you! Um so for starting it out with the base strings I did that knot where you fold it in half and pull the ends through the loop around the buckle. Then for the end I pulled the strings through the buckle and like tied them to themselves with a simple knot and pulled it till it was tight against the buckle. Then I used fabric glue to glue the ends on the back for extra security. Sorry idk if I'm really explaining it well, it would probably be easier to understand with pictures ๐ฅ
