Do-it-yourself with Lefty

Literally thousands of readers are clamoring to know how I fixed my poor old pair of pants using only a paper clip and good old fashioned ingenuity. As promised, I have prepared a series of diagrams to explain how I accomplished this great feat. Keep these handy in case you, too, need an emergency fix.
And again, thanks to the Goddess of Pants. RIP Old Greeny Pants!

It still disturbs me that you didn't just buy new pants, but at least the diagrams make me giggle! :)

Ah, great diagram! I'm going to mail this to my #4 brother {I have 5 brothers 4 sisters), since he sometimes uses unorthodox methods when fixing his clothes.

And RIP Old Greeny Pants.

Never thought of a paper clip. Elastic hair bands worked well for pregnancies 1 and 2. It works much like your diagram, PLUS it adds elasticity. I'm a big fan.

Elastic bands? That's genius! I mean, genius after using a paper clip of course..

It's a good thing you didn't have a bout of diarrhea when you were in your paperclip phase. :D

I have copy and pasted this and printed it out for future reference. I put it in with my rainy day fund and my canned goods.

Thank you
