Man oh man were these fun to do! My original idea was to get a pair of these for each girl and make them into mock ballet slippers by sewing brightly colored ribbon to the bottom in the back and tying it up the girl's legs. Turned out to be expensive and hard because I couldn't find all the sizes I needed.
While trying to figure out what our cute little flower girls were going to be wearing on their feet, I came across these cute plain white shoes at Walmart for only $5 a pair.
I had a thought... How easy would it be to make shiney shoe laces? SUPER EASY! Clear scotch tape and shiney ribbon! Vwa-la!
Of course they couldn't just be done, they needed a little something extra. Glitter! Who doesn't love a little glitter on their shoes? My girls sure do. So here's the finished product, and I think they turned out pretty dang cute :)
P.S. Using a cheap plastic shower cap or, as I used, the slip on food covers (I got a box of 20 at Dollar Tree for $1) is a great way to store shoes for travel. It protects your shoes AND the clothes and other things they are near!
