Make coward belt yourself

instagram viewer

There are certainly enough good reasons to celebrate. But you don't always need an occasion to really let it rip. The main thing is that there are always enough drinks with you. For example, the "good old" coward. Why carry annoying bags or rucksacks with you when there is another way? You can easily design the coward belt yourself like this:

What you need:

  • 45 to 50 "little cowards"
  • correspondingly many high-brimmed buttons (for example from old jeans)
  • an extra long old belt
  • a wide elastic band (elastic for pants)
  • tear-resistant thread
  • Needle (optionally a tacker)
  • scissors

It's easy to tailor a coward belt

  • How practical - such a coward belt. The best thing is that you can easily make such a part yourself - assuming you have a little manual skills.
  • The base of the coward belt, an old textile or leather belt, can be cut well and generously. After all, it doesn't hurt if it hangs loosely around your hips while partying. As long as every coward "sits" well and safely, nothing can go wrong ...

Proceed with care and consideration

  • Sew on the elastic at the beginning of the belt with several needle stitches.
  • Then take your measure with the "little coward". The vial is about 1.8 inches wide and about seven millimeters deep. On this basis, sew or staple the elastic in the middle of the belt on the outside - parallel to the edge seam (if available) - about 1.85 centimeters apart. Tip: An empty coward bottle is a very promising aid in this work step.
  • Make sure you work carefully to avoid the coward bottles falling out later. Depending on the strength or Due to the nature of the material, a certain amount of force is required to get the needle through the leather resp. to get the fabric.
  • Widen your pants - you should pay attention to that

    There are different ways to widen a pair of pants. What possibilities are ...

  • When you have reached the end of the belt, sew the end of the elastic to the outer edge. You can also attach two or four rivets there, as you wish. This ensures an even more secure hold and a cooler look.
  • Then attach a button under each "rubber eyelet". Make sure to use as many buttons as there are eyelets. The buttons are not only used to improve the look, but also to stabilize the "little coward". The rubber band should be firm enough, but an additional bracket does not do any harm in this context.

Careful work is the alpha and omega of this tinkering. Take the time and leisure you need to sew. After all, there can be a lot going on when partying. The cowards, however, will then defy even "the most adverse circumstances".
