How To Belt Something Without A Belt
I hate belts. But sometimes I need something that does the same thing.

-
Take a strip of fabric that will go around your waist. You don't want to make it too thick, but thick enough so you can cut a slit and it won't break.
-
Fold over one end and cut a small slit. Repeat to the other end!
-
Stretch out your fabric a bit and sew around the edge of your hole if you wish.
I'm lazy.
So I didn't. -
Put one hole over the button where you want your button up to cinch in. Just like buttoning up.
-
Wrap the other end around your back to the other side.
-
Put the free side of your fabric through the button hole of your matching button.
-
Now button the same button with that hole.
-
Then button your actual button through the actual hole.
-
And TADA!
