Fancy Feet for Friday

Here's a little project I accomplished this week, take a look…

1
I found these at the Goodwill store for almost free…
2
I thought they'd be really fun to jazz up with some ribbon so I chose this wide yellow grosgrain, wired on both sides and cut it to measure 12" long.
3
step 2, remove the wire from one side and then gather up the remaining side to create a flower. I used some fabric tac glue to tuck under the nasty edges.
4
Because these are plastic or vinyl or whatever, not leather, I decided to dress them up further by covering the straps with a nice eggshell colored grosgrain ribbon. I used my fabric glue again, love that stuff!
5
And have I ever mentioned how I adore my cropodile? It's one of those impulse buys I seem to always make while watching for my products to air on QVC…gheesh, I spend as much as I make I think!
6
Voila! Fancy Feet for Friday!

I hope you'll be inspired to find and decorate some shoes of your own. Please send me pictures! I'd love to see what you come up with!
Have a great weekend friends.

    The Cropodile is the best tool…ever. The only thing I love more is my flexible shaft. It’s a jewelry tool in case you were afraid.

    GREAT SHOES! You have HAPPY FEET!

    BTW…I was a ROCK STAR today thanks to your mantra!
