My DH has finally decided to get rid of some of his very worn out clothing.
As he handed a pair off cut-off jeans to me - he said "Maybe you can cut off the belt loops on these (to be put on another pair of jeans)" |
Sounds like something my DH would come up with. LOL
|

|

I would have said "ok" to my husband and tossed them away!
So funny, love them hubbys for trying. Belt loops...so funny. |
How did the pants look on him after you hung them over his head?
|
Hand him a needle and thread.

He's definitely related to my husband. LOL
|
What!! I don't think so!
|
We always save ours for the cat "fishing pole" toy. It is a fiberglas rod with 80 lb test braided saltwater fishing line and a denim belt loop attached as the "fly".
We bought this in New Orleans nearly 20 years ago at a great shop called The Cat House and the resident cat took DH right to her preferred toy. Her name was Miss Belle Watling and she was a fluffy long-haired black kitty :-) It has been loved by all kitties we have had since! |
NO!
|
The poor, neglected fellow. Does he blow out his belt loops?
|
The things that make you go hmmm.

What does my dad do he goes in the garage fashions a handle out of sheet metal and pop rivets it back together. This is a $3 laundry basket for crying out loud!! Would you believe that after 5 or 6 years they are still using the basket?!?! We sat down and figured that they had bought right before my daughter was born 19 years ago, because mom remembers putting baby shower gifts in it when they were at the store buying it. Billy |

Oh yes, here too - recycle until the patches are so worn out that there is nothing left to redeem!!! But, somehow I see a hole and before it goes back on his pile to wear, if it is not too bad, it hits the recycle bag - and I make carpet rags out of them - basically not more than one patching goes on here anymore - AMEN........... and lots of good carpet rag rugs out of the remainders.

Haha! I've actually done that, ya know?! Some jeans now have fewer belt loops (wonder how many tenths of a penny they save?) so I have started saving them to put on new jeans! LOL
