Keep your pants up! (thank you Pinterest!)

by eatpraytri on May 26, 2012

Remember how the other day I mentioned my top two favorite things I learned about on Pinterest? The green onion in the freezer trick is one of them and this is the other.

Ever have a pair of pants/jeans where the zipper will NOT stay up? I have a few different pairs. I used to use safety pins….until Pinterest came along and enlightened me.

Pants brilliant

Find one of the million key rings you have around your house somewhere….we all have them right? Put your zipper in it just like you would a key.

Zip up and put the circle around the button of your pants and then button.

VIOLA. zipper stays up, nothing is visible AND you don’t rip up or put holes in your jeans by using a safety pin.

Seriously, I wish I knew who originally had this brilliant idea so I could shake their hand and thank them for saving my jeans. I say thank you by passing on the awesome idea to others who may find this just as fantastic as I do.

What is your favorite “how did I not think of that?” idea that you found on Pinterest?
