In less than 15 minutes (more if you don’t find your tools…) you can add belt loop to you favorite pant. It’s more easy than to change the elastic.
You need:
• Pant
• Belt
• Tape measurement (or equivalent)
• Ribbon (or equivalent)
• Scissors
• Pins
• Sewing machine.


Please note that :
- this is my first Instructable
- English is absolutely not my mother language.

French and Spanich version exist.

Measure Your Belt

Very important, here the tape measurement is in centimetres.

Cut

Cut, at least, 5 belt loops: size of the height of the belt + 1 inch.

Put the Ribbon on the Pant

Place the future belt loops on the pant, the first on the middle of the back.
