Most of the pants I buy for Brandon fit perfectly except for the waist. The pants fall right off. Then when they fit around the waist, they're too short. Ugh. I knew I had seen a tutorial on making a child's belt on my favorite craft blog so I found it and made some! You can get the instructions
here. To be safe, I just bought a whole yard of ribbon. I bought 2 different kinds and some D rings at Walmart (1" size) for a total of
$2.26. Can you imagine how much it would cost to buy a little belt in the store? I don't think I've even seen any. What a great gift this would make! I whipped these together in like 10 minutes and I love them so much already!

| My little model :) |

| The striped one is 3/4 of a yard and is almost too small! Get a whole yard and then trim it down to the size you need. |

| Also, for that tan canvas-y ribbon you only need to buy one piece. |
ha ha I love his little "cheese" face. it's so cute! and the belt is awesome and a way good idea.
